Short-Term License Plate Accounts

A Short-Term License Plate Account is a temporary account to pay bridge tolls for a specific period of time. It can be used to pay tolls for Bay Area bridge crossings incurred within the last 48 hours or for future tolls up to 30 days in advance. Short-Term License Plate Accounts cannot be used to pay express lane tolls and do not allow you to travel in the carpool lane on Bay Area bridges.

Rental vehicles may use a Short-Term License Plate Account if the rental company does not offer a toll payment plan or you opt not to use it. Learn more about paying tolls in a rental vehicle.

Your vehicle's license plate number will be linked to your payment account. If you do not have a license plate yet, you can still pay recent or future tolls by providing other identifying information.

Pay for Future Bridge Crossings

Specify a date range for planned toll crossings up to 30 days in advance.

Pay for Recent Bridge Crossings

Specify dates of toll crossing/s that occurred within the past 48 hours. You can also set up payment for planned future toll crossings.
