Do Florida toll roads take credit cards?
I’m going on a road trip to Florida and am wondering if I need to keep a bunch of change in the car or if I can just use a credit card to pay for the tolls. Do Florida toll roads take credit cards?

Florida tolls
must be paid at the time you travel through a toll lane with either cash or a prepaid account, such as SunPass, E-PASS, LeeWay, or another interoperable transponder account.If you do not have cash or a transponder when driving through the toll, you will be billed by TOLL-BY-PLATE. This works by capturing an image of your license plate as you pass through the toll. Then, the registered owner of the vehicle will receive a toll enforcement invoice in the mail with an added $2.50 administrative charge.
You can also pay the toll prior to receiving the invoice. Simply send a check or money order to the Florida Department of Transportation along with the following information:
- Your name
- License plate number (including state)
- Date and location of the unpaid toll(s)—indicate the exit name, milepost number, and/or direction you were traveling.
If you decide to use the TOLL-BY-PLATE method and wait for your invoice, be sure that you pay your invoice immediately upon receipt. You can make a payment by mailing a check or money order to the Florida Department of Transportation. Otherwise, pay online at SunPass.com. Find detailed instructions on the invoice.
If you fail to make the payment by the due date, a second invoice will be mailed. If you do not pay the second invoice, the toll and administrative fee amounts may be assigned to a collection agency, which will add more fees to the balance owed.
