Using Bip&Go on the Motorway, Whatever the Situation

With your Bip&Go badge, you can choose from several options depending on how you use the motorway:

If you use the motorway occasionally, you can still enjoy all the benefits of electronic tolling. Discover the Bip&Go pay-as-you-go option, with no monthly subscription.

If you travel the motorway regularly or daily, the Bip&Go Liber-t pass offers a fixed-rate subscription for electronic tolling.

Whatever your usage or vehicle, you can enjoy all the benefits of the Liber-t Bip&Go badge, making your motorway journeys easier in every situation!

Accessing Electronic Tolls According to Your Vehicle Category

Depending on your vehicle class, you can use the Liber-t Bip&Go badge across the entire motorway network, with a few different scenarios:

If your vehicle is category 1 (car, car with light trailer, or small van), you can use the electronic toll lane limited to 30 km/h. Your badge will beep a few seconds before the barrier is raised to confirm it’s been detected.

If you have a category 2 vehicle (motorhome, van, or car with a high trailer), you can also use electronic tolling, but you’ll need to use a standard lane with a stop.

Motorhomes with trailers, and all vehicles over 3m high, fall into categories 3 and 4. In this case, you cannot use a Liber-t electronic toll badge.

If you’re a motorcyclist, you can also enjoy the benefits of electronic tolling. However, for safety reasons, we advise against using the fast toll lane. We recommend using a standard electronic toll lane with a stop to ensure your Liber-t Bip&Go badge is properly detected.
