When selecting a vehicle tracker, there are two primary types to consider: the S7 and the S5. The S7 trackers are generally more basic, providing real-time location tracking via an app, and may also be monitored by a central security team. These trackers are ideal for personal use or businesses that need to monitor vehicle movement without requiring advanced security features. The S5 trackers, however, are more advanced, featuring driver recognition tags that prevent the vehicle from starting unless the authorised tag is detected. This provides a higher level of security and is often used for high-value vehicles or those requiring extra protection against theft.

The installation of a vehicle tracker varies depending on the type you choose. For a simple plug-and-play tracker, the installation is straightforward and involves plugging the device into your vehicle’s OBD-II port. These trackers require no professional installation and can be set up in just a few minutes.

On the other hand, if you opt for a hardwired tracker, the installation process is more complex and typically takes around 1-2 hours to professional to wire the device into your vehicle's electrical system. Hardwired trackers are generally considered more secure as they are tamper-resistant and permanently installed. This process usually takes less than an hour when performed by a professional installer.

Yes, most vehicle tracking services come with a subscription fee. This is necessary to access tracking and monitoring features. Subscription costs typically range from £9.99 to £20 per month, depending on the level of service, such as live tracking, remote immobilisation, and vehicle health monitoring. For insurance-approved trackers, you may also need to subscribe to a monitoring service that communicates with your insurer, which could lead to a reduction in your insurance premium. It’s important to compare the different subscription plans available to ensure you select one that best suits your requirements.

The S5 trackers and S7 trackers are among the most reliable and advanced security solutions available for vehicles, offering a range of benefits that significantly enhance both security and peace of mind. These trackers provide real-time location tracking, allowing you to monitor your vehicle’s movements at any time via an app, which is particularly useful for fleet management or personal security. Both models come with tamper alerts, notifying you immediately if the tracker is removed or if any unauthorised activity is detected, giving you the opportunity to act quickly. Additionally, they feature geofencing capabilities, which allow you to set a designated area for your vehicle, and you'll receive alerts if it moves outside that zone, adding an extra layer of protection. In the unfortunate event of theft, these trackers dramatically improve the chances of recovery by providing precise location data to authorities, reducing the likelihood of permanent loss. 

Overall, the S5 and S7 trackers offer comprehensive, reliable protection, making them an excellent choice for vehicle owners who want to ensure their car, van, or fleet is secure at all times.

Installing a vehicle tracker can potentially lower your insurance premium. Many insurers offer discounts for vehicles that are equipped with approved security devices such as trackers. A tracker can reduce the risk of theft and increase the likelihood of recovering your vehicle if it is stolen, which insurers recognise as a valuable safety feature. Discounts vary between insurers but can range from 5% to 15% off your premium, depending on the type of tracker and the insurer’s policy. It’s worth checking with your insurance provider to ensure that the tracker is approved and to enquire about any potential savings on your premium.
