Computop partners with Toll Collect

Following the start of the HGV toll in 2005, Toll Collect has transferred over EUR 85 billion to the federal budget, and currently, approximately 85% of the revenue is collected on the basis of card payments. As per the press release information, this business is set to be entirely migrated to Computop by 2024, as the company has won the Europe-wide tender for ‘technical services in electronic payment transactions’ of Toll Collect.

Customers are enabled to log in via the automatic procedure leveraging the onboard unit, the customer portal, or the Toll Collect app, with the payment process being exclusively digital.
