Roadside Assistance
In case you have a problem with your vehicle you can rely on HAK to provide you with the necessary assistance. Using the app you can press the button for help and the 24/7/365 service centre will receive your exact location and help will be on its way.
Another option provided by the app is – Where’s my car?
Especially on holiday in an unfamiliar place it is handy to be able to find the place where you have parked your car the feature ‘where’s my car’ will help you with that. To use it you just save your location when you park and find your way back with the pedestrian navigation which uses Google maps.
You can have access to road maps provided by HAK with this app – HAKMAP
With this app available in four languages (Croatian, English, German and Italian) you can calculate the toll rates of the Croatian highways, calculate the fare of the ferries along the coast.
Emergency help & delivery at sea
As Croatia has a very long coastline with a lot of beautiful islands to visit during your vacation, help at sea is also facilitated by the HAK app- by pressing the ‘Help button’ on the app emergency seaside assistance will be organised.
