The new toll contexts can be quickly and easily activated by customers in the UTA Service Center and be installed via an over-the-air update. Alternatively, new devices can be ordered with the toll contexts already installed.
Olaf Schneider, Director Tolls & Business Services at UTA Edenred, says: “Our toll portfolio is one of our key service areas, and UTA One next, like its UTA One predecessor, is our flagship device. Customers can look forward to several important enhancements this year.”
With the service expansion, UTA One next now settles tolls in the following countries: Croatia, Slovenia, Slovakia, Belgium (including Liefkenshoektunnel), Germany, France, Italy (including Caronte ferry services), Austria, Poland (A4, Katowice - Krakow and the e-TOLL network), Hungary, Bulgaria, Portugal, Spain, Norway (including ferries, bridges, tunnels and motorways), Sweden (bridges and ferries), Denmark (bridges and ferries) and Switzerland (including Liechtenstein).
UTA One next is suitable for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes, making it ideal for companies that travel throughout Europe and that are affected by the new German toll for vehicles over 3.5 tonnes, which came into force on 1 July.
Additional updates for UTA One next are on the starting blocks: Support for the Czech toll system is in development, and the device will be able to process tolls in Denmark from 1 January 2025, when the country moves from the Eurovignette to an all-new, independent toll system.
The predecessor of UTA One next - UTA One® - will also receive updates. Starting in October, it can be used for tolls in Croatia, and from 2025, it will support Danish tolls.
UTA One® Move is UTA Edenred's interoperable toll device for cars and vans up to 3.5 tonnes. It covers France, Portugal, Spain and Italy, including the city centre toll for Milan (AREA C), car park charges and Caronte ferry services. The Croatian toll context will be added to UTA One Move in September.
