Product Code: SE 3461
The electronic toll collection market is expected to be valued at USD 10.19 billion in 2025 and reach USD 15.20 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.3% during the forecast period. The demand for electronic toll collection systems is facilitated by the increase in traffic congestion and the need for efficient toll management. Also, overreliance on technologies and susceptibility to technical failure are restraining the growth of the market.

"Transponders/Tag-based tolling systems segment is likely to register the highest CAGR in the Asia Pacific electronic toll collection market between 2025 and 2030."
Transponders/tag-based tolling systems will grow at the highest CAGR in the Asia Pacific electronic toll collection market during the forecasted period. This demand is attributed to the technological, economic, and infrastructural factors that match the transportation and developmental requirements of the region. The rapid urbanization and growing traffic congestion in China, India, Japan, and South Korea require efficient tolling solutions, thus requiring RFID-based transponder systems to provide quick toll collection services that minimize the delay. The Indian FASTag system has become mandatory since February 2021 and serves 35 million vehicles while processing 1,200 vehicles per hour per lane, which results in smoother traffic movement. These systems offer cost-effectiveness and scalability as their deployment costs are approximately 30% lower than GPS-based tolling systems, making them suitable for developing economies.
"Highways segment is expected to hold the largest share of the electronic toll collection market in North America in 2025."
The highways segment is anticipated to account for the largest share of the electronic toll collection market in North America in 2025. ETC systems are needed on North American highways for effective operations, safer roads, protection of the environment, and advancement in tolling technology on busy highways. Since many vehicles commute via urban highways, systems such as E-ZPass become vital for such a rush. As ETC lets commuters pass through tolls without slowing, safety on fast highways is improved, as highlighted by the Federal Highway Administration for the New Jersey Turnpike. Along with North America's efforts to make transportation greener, ETC systems reduce emissions by 40~66% on emissions by limiting vehicles from idling.
"US is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period."
The US will register the highest growth rate in the electronic toll collection market during the forecast period. The rising number of vehicles, aging highway structures, and the need for an efficient drive contribute to the demand for ETC systems in the country. US governments are mandating the use of electronic tolling to save on operating tolls and make payment easier for drivers. Ecosystem players are focusing on inorganic growth strategies to facilitate growth. For instance, in 2024, Neology Acquired P Square Solutions, a provider of tolling services and tech solutions. After this acquisition, Neology launched Neology PSquare, which provides Neology with the ability to fully support tolling projects anywhere in the world.
