Rosenheim/Vienna. December 3, 2020 – The German toll services provider tolltickets, a 100% subsidiary of Kapsch TrafficCom, will expand its current footprint by providing integrated tolling services for partner companies.
Kapsch TrafficCom, via its subsidiary tolltickets, is proud to support the launch of Ford’s new Marketplace feature by providing Ford customers access to tolltickets’ tolling services. Part of FordPass Pro, a smartphone app for small businesses, Marketplace services are available to fleets of up to five vehicles. Alongside the app’s remote control and convenience features, owners can now browse details of available partnerships and offers and simply tap through to sign up with a partner or to find out more. Among the three Marketplace partnerships that were launched, tolltickets enables vehicle owners to subscribe and pre-pay for a wide variety of tolling solutions. Benefits include savings on standard tariffs, ease of transit across the various countries covered by tolltickets, and reduced administration overhead thanks to single-supplier monthly billing for the entire fleet.

For Kapsch, business-to-business partnerships will be increasingly important for offering integrated services to end users. That is why I am really proud that a renowned car manufacturer like Ford is relying on the know-how of tolltickets in delivering tolling services. This partnership is a success in our new strategy of expanding our existing core business areas of tolling and traffic management with tolling services and demand management.”
