How to access your E-ZPass NJ account online
To log in to your E-ZPass New Jersey account, go to www.ezpassnj.com and click the "Log In" button in the upper right corner. Enter your username and password — these are the credentials you created when you first registered your transponder. If you do not remember your password, select "Forgot Password" and follow the email recovery steps.
Once logged in, you can view your account balance, recent toll transactions, payment history, and transponder details. The site works on desktop browsers and mobile devices, though the mobile experience is optimized for checking balances quickly rather than making account changes.
If you have never created an online account before, you will need to register first. This requires your transponder number (found on the device itself or your original paperwork), your account number, and your ZIP code. Registration takes about five minutes and is free.

- E-ZPass NJ customer service can reset your login credentials by phone if you cannot recover your password online.
What you can do after logging in
Your E-ZPass NJ account dashboard shows your current prepaid balance and lets you add money to your account when ready using a debit or credit card. Most replenishments process within minutes, though you can also set up automatic replenishment so your account refills when the balance drops below a threshold you choose.
You can also view a detailed transaction history organized by date, toll plaza, and amount. This is useful if you need to dispute a charge or track your toll spending over time. The account also displays which transponder is linked to your account and lets you add or remove transponders if you have multiple vehicles.
Account settings let you update your mailing address, phone number, and email address. You can also change your password and review which devices have access to your account. If you have a violation or unpaid toll, the account will flag it and show instructions for payment.
Resetting your password if you are locked out
Click "Forgot Password" on the E-ZPass NJ login page. Enter the email address associated with your account. You will receive an email from E-ZPass NJ with a link to reset your password. The link expires after 24 hours, so complete the reset promptly.
Create a new password that is at least eight characters long and includes a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols. E-ZPass NJ requires this complexity to protect your account from unauthorized access. Once you submit the new password, you can log in when ready.
If you do not receive the password reset email within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder — automated emails sometimes land there. If the email never arrives, contact E-ZPass NJ customer service at 1-888-391-6111 and they can reset your credentials manually.
Creating a new account if you do not have one yet
Go to www.ezpassnj.com and select "Register" or "Create Account." You will be asked for your transponder number, account number, and ZIP code. Your transponder number is printed on the device itself; your account number appears on your original welcome letter or invoice from E-ZPass NJ.
After entering those details, you will create a username and password. The username can be your email address or any text you choose. Write down your username and password somewhere safe — you will need them every time you log in.
Once registration is complete, you can log in and add a payment method. E-ZPass NJ accepts Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. You do not have to add a payment method when ready, but you will need one before you can replenish your balance online.
Troubleshooting common login problems
If you see an error message saying your username or password is incorrect, double-check that you are typing them exactly as you created them — passwords are case-sensitive, meaning capital and lowercase letters are treated differently. If you are still stuck, use the "Forgot Password" link to reset.
If the website is slow or will not load, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies, then reload the page. You can also try logging in from a different browser or device to rule out a problem with your computer. E-ZPass NJ's website is usually stable, but occasional maintenance windows can cause brief outages.
If you registered your account but cannot log in with your credentials, your account may not have been fully activated. Contact E-ZPass NJ customer service and confirm that your registration went through. Sometimes registration requires a verification step that happens in the background, and support can speed this up.
Managing multiple transponders and vehicles
If you have more than one transponder — for example, one for your car and one for a truck — you can link them all to a single online account. Log in and go to the "Transponders" or "Vehicles" section. Select "Add Transponder" and enter the transponder number for your second vehicle.
Each transponder will have its own balance, but you can manage all of them from one login. When you add money to your account, you choose which transponder to replenish. This is simpler than maintaining separate accounts and makes it easier to track spending across multiple vehicles.
If you sell a vehicle or no longer use a transponder, you can remove it from your account online. Removing a transponder does not delete your account history — it just stops tolls from being charged to that device. You can add it back later if needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I do if I never received my account number?
Your account number should have been mailed to you when you first purchased your transponder. If you cannot find it, call E-ZPass NJ customer service at 1-888-391-6111 with your transponder number and they will provide your account number. You can also look it up on your original invoice or receipt if you have that.
Can I log in on my phone?
Yes, www.ezpassnj.com works on mobile browsers. You can check your balance and add money from your phone, though some features like adding a new transponder work better on a desktop. There is no official E-ZPass NJ mobile app, so use the website through your phone's browser.
Is my payment information safe when I log in?
E-ZPass NJ uses encryption to protect your login and payment data. The website uses HTTPS, which means your information is scrambled in transit. Never share your username or password with anyone, and log out when you are done, especially on a shared computer.
What if I forgot my username?
If you used your email address as your username, try logging in with that email. If you created a different username and cannot remember it, click "Forgot Password" and enter your email address — the password reset process will remind you of your username or let you create a new one.
How often should I check my account?
You can log in as often as you like. Many users check their balance monthly or before long trips to make sure they have enough prepaid funds. Setting up automatic replenishment means you do not have to monitor your balance manually.
