How to register and add carpool to E-ZPass online

The E-ZPass is an electronic toll-collection system used widely in the Midwestern and Eastern areas of the USA.

There are multiple services available, and some of them include carpool plans for those who provide these services. However, unfortunately, these discounts are only available for New Jersey and New York. 

There were multiple locations where this discount was applied. However, in January 2020, these plans were discontinued for the Holland Tunnel, Lincoln Tunnel, And George Washington Bridge toll booths. During the same process, the prices were highly increased.

The E-ZPass discount available for carpool users requires you to have a particular transponder. This different device lets the system know you are carrying multiple people in your car.

Thanks to the discount, many of these service providers were hugely beneficiated, and they still are, except for the areas previously mentioned.

How to register and add carpool to E-ZPass online?

In some areas, the E-ZPass Flex is not available. Therefore, you may not be able to receive the correspondent discount. However, like in NY and NJ, there are alternatives.

The process to add carpool to any E-ZPass website is essentially the same as if you were adding any other kind of vehicle.

When creating an account, you will be allowed to pick between different plans. For instance, in New York and New Jersey, you can choose the Port Authority Carpool Plan or PCACP.

According to the E-ZPass website, this plan is available for private E-ZPass users and those whose vehicles have non-commercial plates.

However, the site also states that you must enroll to apply for the plan. Excluding the areas previously mentioned, the toll rate is $7.75.
