Methods, server, devices and registered terminals for requiring approval of toll charges are provided. A server receives, from a fixed communication device at a toll booth location, a tollway transponder identifier of a vehicle tollway transponder on a vehicle. The server determines whether a registered terminal is associated with the tollway transponder identifier. Responsive to determining that the registered terminal is associated with the tollway transponder identifier, a toll approval request message is transmitted to the registered terminal, which sends a response message back to the server. The server determines if a location of the registered terminal is within a defined distance from the toll booth location. Responsive to the location of the registered terminal being within the defined distance, the server triggers a toll charge against an account associated with the tollway transponder identifier when the response message indicates approval of the toll.
