Add, remove or update vehicles on your account

Add, remove or update the vehicles on your account online or via the Linkt app following these steps:

  • Online
  • Linkt app
  1. Log in to your account.

  2. Select Vehicles from the menu.

  3. Select Add another vehicle or Remove or Edit your existing vehicle.

  1. Tap the My Account tab.

  2. Tap Vehicles.

  3. Select an existing vehicle and tap edit to update an existing vehicle.

  4. Or tap Add Vehicle to add another vehicle to your account

As soon as you've registered your vehicle to your account, you're ready to travel on any toll road in Australia. Any trips will be charged to your account along with a vehicle matching fee if you're travelling without a tag.

If all you need to do is change your licence plate number, you'll need to delete the car and start again by selecting Add another vehicle.

If you've just sold a car, remember to delete it from your account so you’re not paying for someone else’s travel.

Temporary vehicles and hire cars

If you’re planning on borrowing or hiring a car, you can temporarily add it to your account by setting a start and end time. Once expired, the car will be automatically removed from your account. 

Backdating

You can add a car to your account after you’ve travelled, including new cars you've just bought, rentals or borrowed cars. The trips will be charged to your account and you’ll avoid a toll invoice. This is called backdating*, but there are time limits on how far you can backdate your travel.  

You’ll be able to choose a start date up to 10 days in the past. If you don’t cover your travel within this time frame, a toll invoice will be issued.

*With your Everyday and Commercial account you can cover trips made up to 10 days ago in Victoria or NSW, except for EastLink (VIC) or the Sydney Harbour Bridge & Tunnel (NSW). To pay for past travel on these roads, you'll need to buy a separate pass. You can cover trips made up to 9 days ago in Queensland.

To backdate your vehicle online or via the Linkt app follow these steps: 

  • Online
  • Linkt app
  1. Log in to your account.

  2. Select Vehicles from the menu.

  3. Select Add another vehicle.

  4. Fill in your car's details and then select I want to set a start and end time for this vehicle.

  5. Enter a start date.

An end date is not required but if the car is rented or borrowed, set an end date to ensure you're not paying for someone else's travel.

  1. Tap the My Account tab.

  2. Tap Vehicles and then Add Vehicle.

  3. Fill in your car's details and then select Specify a start / end date.

  4. Enter a start date.

An end date is not required but if the car is rented or borrowed, set an end date to ensure you're not paying for someone else's travel.
