RALEIGH – January 1, 2025, the annual toll rate increase will include an additional rate increase for customers without a NC Quick Pass account or applicable out-of-state account. As a result, customers with an account will now save 50% on all North Carolina tolls compared to the current 35% savings.
The N.C. Turnpike Authority and NC Quick Pass have taken steps to ensure all customers have the opportunity to pay the lowest toll rate:
Launched new NC Only Account for customers to save 50% on tolls in North Carolina without the need of a transponder.
Reduced the pre-paid balance requirement from $20 to $10 for new NC Quick Pass accounts.
Launched retail partnerships to sell NC Quick Pass Sticker transponders in 7-Eleven locations near NC toll facilities and through Amazon.
Sending 300k free transponders to customers who receive a toll invoice from NC Quick Pass between November 11, 2024 – February 28, 2025.
It costs approximately three times more to collect a toll from customers without a NC Quick Pass account compared to customers with an account. This additional increase will more appropriately allocate the higher costs to collect to customers that have chosen not to open an account, resulting in 50% savings for customers with an account.
