North Texas Tollway Authority Press Release:

NTTA to Partner with ACE Cash Express

Partnership to offer more payment options for ZipCash customers
 
The North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA) is partnering with ACE Cash Express, a leading Texas-based retailer of financial services, to provide additional locations for NTTA customers to pay their ZipCash invoices and to open and load cash-backed TollTag accounts.
 
"The NTTA wants to offer convenient opportunities for our ZipCash customers and to offer a TollTag option for our cash customers," said Clayton Howe, NTTA assistant executive director of operations. "Adding more payment centers by partnering with ACE will assist the NTTA and its customers during and following the conversion of our system to all-electronic toll collection, especially as our system and operations continue to grow."
 
For a small fee, customers will be able to:

• Sign up for cash-backed TollTag accounts. Dallas/Fort Worth ACE customers will have the opportunity to open new cash-backed TollTag accounts and re-load existing accounts.
• Pay ZipCash statements. Customers who receive ZipCash invoices or ZipCash late invoices can visit any ACE location to pay their bill efficiently and quickly.
• TollTag customers also will be able to add cash to their accounts at any ACE Cash Express location.

Customers will be able to visit 152 ACE Cash Express locations in the Dallas//Fort Worth Metroplex, providing convenient neighborhood payment locations for NTTA cash customers.
 
"ACE Cash Express is pleased to be working directly with the NTTA to establish such a meaningful program," said Victor Faszczuk, vice president of business development for ACE. "ACE has always been viewed as a community-based business, offering customers quality financial services with attention to high customer care. Our objective has always been to add partnerships that make it easier for customers to take care of their financial needs, and this important partnership with NTTA is an example of that direction."
 
ZipCash customers enjoy the same hassle-free roadway experience that TollTag customers do, but pay a 50 percent higher toll rate due to the cost of collection. By getting a TollTag, they can save money on their tolls and enjoy the convenience of not worrying about invoices. They can also get up to three TollTags per account. TollTag customers also can use their TollTag to travel on any toll road in Texas. Customers whose accounts are backed with a credit or debit card can use their TollTags for parking and pass-through privileges at D/FW International Airport and all parking at Dallas Love Field.
 
TollTags are always available online and at Regional TollTag Partner locations.
 
The ACE partnership is expected to fully launch in the second quarter of 2010. For more information about the NTTA, visit www.ntta.org. For more information about ACE Cash Express, visit www.acecashexpress.com.
