What Kind of GPS Tracker Do I Need?

Active GPS
Active GPS trackers are the only choice if you need to know RIGHT NOW where the tracker is. All active trackers have a monthly subscription fee which allows you to simply log on to a web site with an easy to use interface and see where your tracker is. They are dependent upon cell phone network coverage to report their position. We have service coverage area maps for our plans so please make sure your area is covered.

Passive GPS trackers record a position as frequently as every one second and store that information inside the memory in the tracker. When you want to view the information, simply remove the GPS tracker from the vehicle, plug it into your computer and the software places all the information on a map. Passive GPS trackers do not require any monthly fees and are not dependent on cell phone network coverage.
