How to Pay

Your Path:  How to Pay

If you use tollways more than a few times a year you can open a Breeze account online. Trips on EastLink are cheapest with a tag.

If you expect to use EastLink less than a few times a year you can buy an EastLink trip pass online, before or up to 3 days after each trip. Each trip pass buys a single trip on EastLink in one direction. A return trip needs two trip passes.

If you are visiting Melbourne and need access to EastLink and CityLink for up to 30 days you can open a Melbourne Pass.

If you already have a tolling account (for example a CityLink account) it will work on EastLink and the EastLink tolls will be charged to your existing account.

If you already have a Breeze account you can top up online.

Ensure you pay each toll invoices or overdue notice

Failure to pay a Toll invoice or Overdue Notice may result in a fine ($119 for each day of unregistered travel). More information here.

IMPORTANT: If your tolling account is suspended and you have received a Toll Invoice or Overdue Notice for unregistered travel on EastLink, you need to top up your account AND pay the Toll Invoice or Overdue Notice separately. Reactivating your account by topping it up will not cover trips taken on EastLink while the account was suspended.

Toll payment options

The options for arranging to pay your EastLink tolls are listed here:

  • Breeze tag accounts are a low cost option for using EastLink and other tollways. Tolls are cheapest with a tag. The stylish Breeze tags work on all tollways in Australia. The Breeze tag account is a pre-paid account, and can be opened with a single opening payment of $40, even if you want more than one tag. Your opening payment will be a credit on your account. With no minimum annual usage fees for car tags, why not get a tag for each of your cars, and make swapping tags between your cars a thing of the past? Open a Breeze tag account online.

 

  • Breeze non-tag accounts are suitable for those who don't want a tag, including motorcyclists. Non-tag accounts only work on EastLink and CityLink, and there is an image processing fee payable in addition to the toll for each trip made (from 1 July 2010 25 cents per trip on EastLink, 75 cents per trip on CityLink). This fee is waived for motorcycles. The Breeze non-tag account is a pre-paid account, and will be available to be opened with a single opening payment of $40. Your opening payment will be a credit on your account. Open a Breeze non-tag account online.

 

  • EastLink trip passes are for casual users who will only use EastLink a few times a year. One EastLink Trip Pass will pay for a single trip on EastLink, in one direction. You won't need to specify a date for your trip, and you will be able to buy more than one trip pass at a time, giving you the flexibility to have a number of trip passes "in the bank", ready for use when you need them. Trip passes will expire if not used within six months and are not refundable. Buy an EastLink trip pass online.

 

  • Melbourne Pass is for visitors to Melbourne who only want access to EastLink and CityLink for up to 30 days. Open a Melbourne Pass online and the trips you make on EastLink and/or CityLink will be charged to your nominated credit card. You can arrange for your Melbourne Pass to expire after 30 days or earlier if you require. Find out more and open a Melbourne Pass online.

 

  • Breeze business accounts are specially designed for businesses of all sizes, and include the ability to pay monthly by invoice. Breeze business accounts are available with tag and non-tag options, and you can also mix and match. For example you can get tags for all your Melbourne vehicles and register the licence plate details for your regional vehicles. Breeze business account applications will be subject to satisfactory credit checking, and a quarterly account management fee applies.
