PA Turnpike Now Offers Apple Pay, Google Pay For Tolls

PHILADELPHIA, PA —The Pennsylvania Turnpike has increased its toll payment options for drivers by now offering Google Pay and Apple Pay.

Drivers can access these options as mobile payment options through the PA Turnpike’s mobile account management app, PA Toll Pay.

The app is available in the Apple Store and on Google Play. Google Pay is also available for customers paying through the E-ZPass website, the commission said in a statement.

“These new payment options deliver what the majority of our customers want: seamless and convenient mobility,” PA Turnpike CEO Mark Compton said. “Our customers have a clear preference for electronic payments, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission is dedicated to understanding and meeting their evolving needs.”

Both payment options can be used to make one-time payments, but the commission said these features can't be used for auto-replenishment.

The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission said it has implemented several options to make payment easier for drivers, including:

• Making E-ZPass Go Paks available at approximately 730 retail locations.
• Providing customers the ability to use cash to pay Toll-By-Plate invoices or add funds to E-ZPass accounts. This payment option helps customers without bank accounts or those who do not want to tie up funds in an E-ZPass account until they travel, commission officials said.
• Offering several different ways to pay their invoice: by mail, by phone, online, using a mobile app, through the cash-payment network, and by walk-in at our Harrisburg Customer Service Center.
