The Transportation Corridor Agencies on Tuesday announced it has released version 1.2 of The Toll Roads App, enhanced with a feature allowing users to establish a FasTrak account entirely from their mobile device or tablet. The free app gives FasTrak accountholders access to the same account and customer service features available on The Toll Roads’ website.
Through Nov. 30, use The Toll Roads App to sign up for a new FasTrak account with the promo code “Mobile30” and $30 in tolls will instantly be credited to the new account. The $30 in free tolls gives new customers the opportunity to take The Toll Roads for a free test drive.
“The updated mobile app makes The Toll Roads experience even more convenient and user-friendly by enabling FasTrak membership account sign-up in the palm of your hand,” said Neil Peterson, chief executive officer of the TCA. “Now it will be even easier for Southern California drivers to experience the time-saving benefits of FasTrak.”
The app is available for download from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store by searching for "FasTrak" or "The Toll Roads.” It allows users to sign up for FasTrak and utilize a variety of account management features including:
• View account balances
• Make payments
• Edit account information
• Add or remove vehicles, including rental and loaner vehicles
• Request additional transponders
• Review recent activity
In May 2012, The Toll Roads became the first toll road operator in the nation to offer an app for toll account management. To date, more than 44,000 customers have downloaded The Toll Roads App.
FasTrak is a prepaid electronic toll collection system used throughout California that allows drivers to pay tolls electronically while traveling at highway speeds through designated lanes.
TCA operates The Toll Roads, the largest network of toll roads in the state, comprised of State Routes 73, 133, 241 and 261 in Orange County.
