Cos'è FLEX?
FLEX è un pedaggio elettronico per tratte speciali austriache che viene addebitato automaticamente dopo il passaggio ai caselli su sei tratte speciali: S16 Arlberg, A13 Brennero, A10 Tauern, A11 Karawanken, A9 Bosruck e A9 Gleinalm. L'attivazione è molto semplice: inserisci la targa del veicolo e il metodo di pagamento – al resto pensa il sistema.
Guida senza fermarti
Utilizza la corsia verde ai caselli – la barriera (se presente) si aprirà automaticamente.
"Guida ora, paga dopo"
L'importo viene addebitato automaticamente sul metodo di pagamento collegato – nessun rischio di multe.
Stesso prezzo
Paghi come con i biglietti singoli (e mai più del prezzo dell'abbonamento annuale).
Massima flessibilità
Attraversa qualsiasi tratta senza preoccupazioni – il sistema calcola tutto automaticamente.
Dove funziona FLEX?
Il servizio è disponibile su tutte le tratte speciali ASFINAG. Consulta la mappa e l'elenco qui sotto.
| Tratta | Tratto | Note |
|---|---|---|
| A9 Bosruck | Spital/Pyhrn – Ardning | Tetto massimo pari al prezzo dell'abbonamento |
| A9 Gleinalm | St. Michael – Übelbach | Tetto massimo pari al prezzo dell'abbonamento |
| A10 Tauern/Katschberg | Flachau – Rennweg | Tetto massimo pari al prezzo dell'abbonamento |
| A11 Karawanken | St. Jakob e confine (galleria) | Nessun abbonamento → nessun tetto massimo |

| S16 Arlberg | St. Anton am Arlberg – Langen am Arlberg | Corsia veloce senza barriera disponibile |
Nota!
Il costo FLEX non è una vignetta. FLEX copre solo tratte speciali come gallerie e ponti. Sulle autostrade e superstrade è comunque necessaria una vignetta valida.
Con FLEX non paghi mai più del dovuto
FLEX funziona come un biglietto (paga automaticamente ogni passaggio), ma allo stesso tempo ti protegge dal pagare troppo: l'importo totale su una tratta non supererà mai il prezzo dell'abbonamento annuale. Inoltre, eviti il rischio di entrare per errore in una tratta a pedaggio.
| Tipo di tariffa | Descrizione | Esempio |
|---|---|---|
| Viaggio singolo | Pedaggio per un passaggio in galleria | circa 14,50 € |
| 2 viaggi | Andata + ritorno | circa 29 € |
| Abbonamento 365 giorni | Viaggi illimitati per un anno | circa 87 € |
| FLEX – tetto massimo | Con FLEX puoi viaggiare liberamente. Una volta raggiunto il prezzo dell'abbonamento, tutti i passaggi successivi sono inclusi. | max. circa 87 € |
Eccezione:
Sulla tratta A11 Karawanken non esiste un abbonamento, quindi non è previsto alcun tetto massimo. Ogni passaggio viene addebitato separatamente.
GO lanes and vehicles under 3.5 t Which lanes to avoid?
The GO lanes and toll gates are intended for trucks (over 3.5 t). For passenger cars use the green lanes. Exception: on A9 and A13 the right GO lane is sometimes open to passenger cars too – always follow the local signage.
Motorcycles and cars with trailers What do you need to know?
Automatic licence plate reading for motorcycles and vehicle–trailer combinations can be more difficult (plates at the back). Choose a staffed lane or use the intercom to give your licence plate number. On A9 and S16 motorcycles and cars with trailers can use the green lane without a barrier – the fee is charged as normal.
Who is FLEX for?
For drivers going on holiday
Going skiing, on holiday in the Alps or just passing through to Italy or Slovenia? With FLEX you don't stand in queues for the ticket office, you don't look for machines or coins – you drive through the green lane and pay afterwards.
For those who drive several times a year
Do you regularly use A10 Tauern or A13 Brenner? Thanks to the cost cap you won't pay more in total than the price of the pass for a given section – even if you drive it many times.
For those who don't want to deal with formalities
Don't like buying tickets each time and logging into different websites? In Autopay you enable FLEX once, add your car and payment method – then you just drive, and the fees are charged automatically.
For those afraid of fines
Not sure if your route includes an additional toll section, or worried it might change and you'll accidentally enter a toll section? Install and activate FLEX – fees will be charged automatically if you drive through an additional toll section; if you don't, no fee will be charged.
How to enable FLEX in the Autopay app?
2. Create an account and enter vehicle details
Create an account or log in.
Add the licence plate number and country of registration of the vehicle you'll be driving to Austria.
3. Choose a payment method
Link a payment card (Visa, MasterCard) that will be charged after using the section.
4. Activate FLEX
Now just go to the "Austria" section and activate the FLEX – section toll service and you're done!
From that moment on you can use the green lane, and the fees will be charged automatically after your trip.
FLEX – frequently asked questions
Does FLEX work without a vignette?
FLEX is a separate fee that applies only to special sections. On other motorways and expressways you still need a valid vignette, which must be purchased separately.
Can I be charged twice?
No. If you already have an active ticket/pass for a given section, the system will use it first – FLEX will not charge a new fee.
Are there cost limits?
Yes – for most sections the total amount will not exceed the price of a multi-trip pass (365 days from the first trip). Exception: A11 Karawanken – no pass and no cap.
Does FLEX work immediately after activation?
Yes. FLEX works immediately after being enabled in the Autopay app and entering the correct licence plate number and country of registration. There is no need to wait for additional activation.
I'm riding a motorcycle – which lane should I use?
Automatic reading of motorcycle plates can be difficult. Use a lane with staff or use the intercom to give your licence plate number. On A9 and S16 motorcycles can use the green lane without a barrier.
Can I use the GO lanes?
GO lanes are for vehicles over 3.5 t. For passenger cars use the green lanes. Exceptionally on A9 and A13 the right GO lane is sometimes open to cars – always follow the signage on site.
What if I change my licence plate or car?
Before travelling to Austria, update your vehicle details in the Autopay app. FLEX charges are based on exactly the licence plate number that is on the vehicle. Old data may result in the fee not being settled correctly.
Can I use FLEX in a rental car?
Yes, you can add the licence plate of a rental car to Autopay and enable FLEX for that vehicle. Just remember to remove the car from your account or disable FLEX after returning it, so that future trips are no longer linked to you.
When will you charge me for the trip?
Usually your card is charged a few minutes after the trip, but in some cases it may take longer (e.g. up to several hours). You can see all settlements and trips in the history section of the Autopay app.
