The A1 Motorway tolling system is of the "closed" type and the tolls are collected at the end of the journey, at the gates.

Tolling stations (SPOs), except the main toll plaza located on the main corridor (PPO), are located on the access and exit roads (the so-called slip roads) of the motorway junctions. There are seven tolling plazas along the Motorway as shown on the illustration below. Six of them: PPO Rusocin, SPO Stanisławie, SPO Swarożyn, SPO Pelplin, SPO Kopytkowo and SPO Nowe Marzy belong to Phase 1 of the project, and the additional seventh station: SPO Warlubie will be built at a later date.

While entering one collects a single-ride ticket. Entitling to use the road, the ticket must be retained, as it will be used to charge the toll. The toll amount is the function of the vehicle category and the distance driven. Having no valid entrance ticket to present, the driver will be obliged to pay the maximum rate set in the binding tariff for the specific vehicle category and the given tolling site.
