Start with the essentials

Vehicle tracking, explained simply.

Not every tracker does the same job. These are three important things to check before buying.

01

Know what it does

Some systems provide app-based location features; monitored systems can involve a tracking centre and theft-recovery support. Check the exact product.

02

Check your insurance

Your insurer may ask for a particular recognised category. Always confirm the exact model and installation requirements with them.

03

Understand the full cost

Ask about equipment, installation, subscription renewals and any extra services—not just the headline price.

Make sense of the terminology

S5 or S7: what's the difference?

Both can form part of an insurance-recognised tracking solution, but the features and approval must be checked against the exact product and your insurer's requirements.

S7 tracking

Typically focuses on monitored vehicle tracking and recovery.

  • May be suitable where an insurer requests S7
  • Monitoring and subscription terms vary
  • Check the exact device's approval

S5 tracking

Typically adds driver recognition to monitored tracking.

  • May be required for higher-risk or higher-value vehicles
  • Driver identification features depend on model
  • Check insurer and installation requirements

Questions answered

Good questions before you buy.

Is a tracker the same as an immobiliser?

No. A tracker helps locate or recover a vehicle, depending on its service. An immobiliser aims to prevent unauthorised starting. Some owners use both for different purposes.

Do all trackers need a monthly subscription?

No. Subscription arrangements vary. Monitored recovery services commonly involve ongoing fees, while other devices may use different pricing models. Check what is included.

Can I choose a tracker just by vehicle make?

Vehicle make alone is not enough. Consider the exact model, year, insurer's conditions, desired features and compatibility confirmed by the provider.

Can I request an installation quote here?

Yes, once the secure enquiry system is enabled, use the form after the security finder. We will only accept submissions with bot verification and the required privacy protections in place.
