00:00:04.588 --> 00:00:05.522
Don’t wait for change.

00:00:05.522 --> 00:00:06.857
Automate!

00:00:06.857 --> 00:00:09.009
You’ve been driving for
hours, eager to get from

00:00:09.009 --> 00:00:10.561
point A to point B.

00:00:10.561 --> 00:00:13.413
The last thing you want to
do is stop and pay a fee.

00:00:13.413 --> 00:00:15.415
These drivers
don’t have to.

00:00:15.415 --> 00:00:18.018
Sadly, this driver didn’t
pay the user fee online

00:00:18.018 --> 00:00:19.870
before arriving at the
border.

00:00:19.870 --> 00:00:21.371
Don’t make the same
mistake.

00:00:21.371 --> 00:00:24.374
Use the Decal/Transponder
Online Procurement System,

00:00:24.374 --> 00:00:25.392
or DTOPS.

00:00:25.392 --> 00:00:29.363
Clock ticking

00:00:32.282 --> 00:00:34.952
Using DTOPS is now
easier than ever.

00:00:34.952 --> 00:00:37.037
The system, along with
mobile app technology,

00:00:37.037 --> 00:00:39.823
allows you to pay single
border crossing fees ahead

00:00:39.823 --> 00:00:41.959
of time instead of at
primary inspection.

00:00:41.959 --> 00:00:44.461
Electronic payments before
you arrive reduce wait

00:00:44.461 --> 00:00:47.314
times and driving hours
and save you money on gas.

00:00:47.314 --> 00:00:49.883
The process for first-time
users is simple.

00:00:49.883 --> 00:00:54.054
Using a PC or smartphone, start by
signing up for a DTOPS profile.

00:00:54.054 --> 00:00:56.990
Once prompted with the
Security Notification,

00:00:56.990 --> 00:00:59.059
click the “Consent &
Continue” tab.

00:00:59.059 --> 00:01:01.261
Choose the “New User: Sign
Up” tab and fill in

00:01:01.261 --> 00:01:04.248
information on name and
email and click Next.

00:01:04.248 --> 00:01:07.584
Set up a unique password,
confirm the password and

00:01:07.584 --> 00:01:10.671
add security questions.
Click Submit.

00:01:10.671 --> 00:01:12.923
You should now have a
profile user ID and

00:01:12.923 --> 00:01:14.891
receive an email
confirming this.

00:01:14.891 --> 00:01:17.160
Once a profile is set up,
you can choose among many

00:01:17.160 --> 00:01:19.947
options, but we’ll focus
on purchasing a single

00:01:19.947 --> 00:01:22.482
border crossing fee for a
commercial vehicle.

00:01:22.482 --> 00:01:25.185
Under Commercial Vehicle,
choose the “Pay a Single

00:01:25.185 --> 00:01:26.620
Border Crossing Fee” tab.

00:01:26.620 --> 00:01:28.355
You are now ready to set
up a purchasing account.

00:01:28.355 --> 00:01:29.289
Click Continue.

00:01:29.289 --> 00:01:31.942
Enter purchasing account
name and click the

00:01:31.942 --> 00:01:35.362
certification tab below.
Click Next.

00:01:35.362 --> 00:01:38.515
Enter the physical address
for the company or individual

00:01:38.515 --> 00:01:40.450
and whether the shipping
address is the same.

00:01:40.450 --> 00:01:41.735
Click Next.

00:01:41.735 --> 00:01:44.204
Enter information
regarding the primary

00:01:44.204 --> 00:01:46.039
contact for this
purchasing account.

00:01:46.039 --> 00:01:48.108
Click Next.

00:01:48.108 --> 00:01:51.211
This should set up your
purchasing account and you

00:01:51.211 --> 00:01:53.046
should receive an email
confirming this.

00:01:53.046 --> 00:01:54.381
Click Continue.

00:01:54.381 --> 00:01:57.050

00:01:59.052 --> 00:02:00.988

Add the license plate
number and where the

00:02:02.990 --> 00:02:03.991
license plate was issued.

00:02:03.991 --> 00:02:08.161
Add the vehicle’s cab
or unit number.

00:02:08.161 --> 00:02:10.998
Add the vehicle’s make,
model and year.

00:02:10.998 --> 00:02:13.000
Add the color of the

00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:17.004
Enter whether the carrier
company is C-TPAT FAST

00:02:17.004 --> 00:02:19.006
approved and click Next.

00:02:19.006 --> 00:02:22.843
Now, you must add a registered
owner of the vehicle.

00:02:22.843 --> 00:02:25.429
Select whether the person
is FAST approved.

00:02:25.429 --> 00:02:29.016

00:02:31.635 --> 00:02:32.953

your cart and you can now
proceed to check out with

00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:40.610
the secure online
payment system.

00:02:40.610 --> 00:02:42.979
Check that you understand
the fees are

00:02:42.979 --> 00:02:45.799
non-refundable and click
Make Payment.

00:02:45.799 --> 00:02:48.985
