According to Decree - Law No. 84-C/2022 and Ordinance No. 190/2013 (Article 27), the rental of the electronic device, called Via Verde is now mandatory.
The cost for renting the Via Verde device is 2.07 Euro/day, maximum 20.70 Euro/rental (VAT included).

Every car in the fleet is equipped with an OBU device, mounted on the windscreen, which facilitates transport on the motorway.

that the device is missing at the return time, the CLIENT will pay a fee of 50 Euro as is specified in Annex 1 – Penalty costs of these Terms and Conditions of rental.
2.11 Late charges procedure for tolls:
The LESSOR is authorized to do a late charge using preauthorization transaction or using a card-on-file transaction.
At car pick up time the LESSOR preauthorizes a security deposit of 150 euros which is valid for only 30 days. A pre-authorization holds the mentioned amount in the CLIENT’s account. Once a pre-authorization has happened, the CLIENT won’t be able to use the blocked amount. While a pre-authorization is in effect, it may even look like the amount has been deducted from the CLIENT’s account, this isn’t the case, the money is simply ‘on hold’ until a new transaction is made for that amount (unblocking or partial/total charge).
Card-on-file transaction is a charge made on the card for the amount needed to cover the cost for tolls and rent of the Via Verde device. Can be successful if there are sufficient funds on the card or if the type of card supports this type of charge.
In maximum 30 days after a rental contract is closed, when tolls are received by the LESSOR, will be deducted the related amounts together with the amount for renting the Via Verde device from the CLIENT’s card using card-on-file transaction; if the transaction is successful, security deposit previous preauthorized will be fully released. If the card-on-file transaction is not succeeded, the LESSOR will charge the value for tolls from the deposit blocked at the car pick up time.
*Note: If at the pick-up the CLIENT presents a debit card, or, if the rental is longer than 12 days, the security deposit of 150 euros will be charged, but the difference between the amount blocked and the amount for tolls and the Via Verde device is returned in maximum 30 days after the car is returned.
