Moved here from MD and I have a MD EZPass transponder/account. Would it be worth it to get the PA version?

I don't think that will be necessary. I had a Delaware transponder that I used for Virginia, Maryland and NYC quite often.

Yep! E-ZPass is the same in states that use it. States outside the E-ZPass network have a different program name.

If you take specific toll bridges to Jersey very frequently (18+ trips per month) then get a NJ pass, otherwise all out-of-state EZpasses get the same discounts.

Thanks for this confirmation!! The websites for each state's EZPasses are unclear regarding toll discounts so I wasn't sure if PA had exclusive toll prices.

Nope! Don't forget to give them your new license plate number though, it has to be on file for you to fight the fines if it ever doesn't scan.

PA EZPass is not that advantageous. NJ's is better as you can get a discount for being a Walt Whitman or other bridge commuter.

They're all pretty much the same otherwise.

I made this same move 5 years ago and actually switched to a Massachusetts EZ pass because it had no fees whatsoever (at the time). I no longer have a car so not sure if that’s still the case but worth looking into which states charge what and when.
