Autopay

Votes: 10

Product or service description

Autopay is a revolutionary alternative to the traditional payment systems. Firstly, with Autopay you will pay for almost every kilometer of tolled roads and highways in Poland, no matter if you drive a car or a truck - you can pass the highway toll booths without stopping. Secondly, we are building an entire ecosystem for "automatic payments by car", where plate numbers are used not only as a tool to carry out the transaction (just like a payment card or telephone) when paying highway tolls, but also when entering a parking lot, paying for gas or in a drive-thru restaurant. Moreover, we are aware that current means of transport have high environmental costs. It is necessary to reduce emissions, better use space, and reduce traffic. Autopay’s mission is to contribute to this transformation. This is the reason we have created an ecosystem of payment services related to car traffic. Autopay is so useful and universal that it was implemented as an integral part of the mobile applications of the biggest banks in Poland: Millennium Bank (BCP Banco Comercial Portugues), Bank Pocztowy, ING Bank Śląski (ING Group), Alior Bank, Santander Bank and Pekao SA.

Distinction from the competition

Autopay is the first system in Europe to use video tolling and geofencing on such a large scale. The biggest challenge in the toll collection industry is to create a system that will be suitable or supplementary to the solutions existing in all countries in the European Union. Currently, each country and every single highway may have its own solution. It forces the drivers travelling between highways to become familiar with the regulations to be able to comply with them. We work on a system that will allow you to move around the European Union using one application, without traffic jams on highway gates, without stickers on the windscreen and lower CO2 emissions. We have started with Poland but have plans to enter other countries soon. To use Autopay, users need to register in the system using an application and match their profile with their payment card. The identification of the vehicle at the highway toll gates is based on the license plate or on GPS data. The toll is charged after the journey is completed.

Product or service innovations

We are revolutionizing the way people pay for the highways in Europe. In Poland there is no vignette system and some of the highways are tolled, so until now the most popular were the toll-gates, which often caused traffic and stress. Highways also have different billing methods. One is GPS-based and the other is booth-based. Autopay has been developed in the last 12 months to be the only solution in Europe that can work along with both billing methods. Autopay allows the driver to pass through the tollgate on the main highways in Poland without the need to stop. It does not require any action on the part of the user. Payments are made fully automatically and completely contactless, which is important during the ongoing epidemic threat.

Using Autopay to pay for the highways is nevertheless only one of its many functions. Autopay is a cutting-edge solution in the payment industry. We are building an entire ecosystem for "automatic payments by car", where plate numbers are used as a tool to carry out the transaction (just like a payment card or telephone) when paying highway tolls, entering parking lots or using car washes (already working). We are planning to implement the same seamless payment method at gas stations (Q1 2022 in Germany) and in drive-thru restaurants (soon).
