With FDE’s electronic payment solution, everything becomes easier for you. With Telepass SAT, everything is combined into one unit, so you can pay road and bridge fees electronically in many European countries without needing multiple units for the different countries you drive in.

With a Telepass SAT unit in the vehicle you can pass through and travel freely in most of Europe without having to stop at payment transitions.

The unit is easy to install, requires no extensive technical knowledge, and is quickly activated.

FDE’s Telepass SAT is particularly useful for you who operate in multiple countries, as it reduces the complexity of managing different toll systems and payment methods and saves you a lot of administration. The fees are calculated automatically, and we invoice you every 14 days.

You can rent a Telepass device, which is an electronic device that has to be installed in the windscreen of your vehicle. It is suitable for frequent users of the Italian road network. You can obtain discount when using Telepass. Read more under ‘Discount in Italy’.

How it works
With a Telepass device you do not have to stop at the toll booths. You can continue through the Telepass lanes where the toll is registered electronically.

This device can be used as payment method in Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Austria, the Liefkenshoektunnel in Belgium and on A4 between Krakow and Katowice in Poland. More countries will be added continuously.

The standard setup of the device includes France, the Liefkenshoektunnel in Belgium and A4 in Poland. Other countries can be added.

How it works
The device will be issued among other to the registration number of the vehicle etc. and placed in the windscreen. With the TEU device you can continue without having to stop at the toll booths, because the toll is registered automatically which gives you a smooth and fast passage.

Discount scheme
It is possible to achieve discount in Italy, France and Spain on specific conditions. The discount depends on the route of motorway you use (not applicable in Italy), your number of journeys per month and the distance covered.

FDE has created a consortium in Italy that is among the 3 biggest consortiums in the country. Membership is only for EU-companies with a valid EU-licence. As a member, you can get a share in an annual rebate set by the Italian Transport Ministry. The rebate is calculated on basis of the euro norm of the vehicle and may be up to 13%. Due to its size, FDE Consortium is guaranteed the maximum rebate that the Italian Transport Ministry sets.

On FDEplus you will be able to see your motorway transactions 60 days back.

With a Telepass device it is possible to activate a new rebate which grants a 20% rebate on the transactions made on motorways A35 (BREBEMI) and A58 (new outer ring road of Milan).

Once activated, the rebate option is applied on all transactions done with Telepass and done on A35 and A58 independently from the entrance and exit gates. Contact us for further information.
