The $150 Fine Print Behind
That Small Monthly Fee
A low monthly price looks like a good deal when you’re signing up for GPS tracking. The big-name brands, the ones with billboards and stadium signs, know that, and it’s what gets a lot of people in the door.
What you don’t see up front is what it costs to stay, and what it costs to leave. One recent caller found out the hard way: they were paying more than double our price, and walking away meant a $150 cancellation fee buried in the fine print.
The Phone Call That Uncovered the Fine Print
It started as a simple pricing question. A customer using one of the big national tracking brands called us to compare costs on the same type of device.
The comparison wasn’t close. They were paying more than twice what we charge. Switching should have been easy, until they checked their contract and found a $150 cancellation fee. That fee alone is more than many of our devices cost outright.
A small monthly fee is designed to feel painless, and that’s the point. Spread over a year or two, it can quietly add up to far more than the tracker is worth, and it never really stops.
Then there’s everything around it: contracts that lock you in, cancellation fees that make leaving expensive, and auto renewals that keep charging whether you’re paying attention or not. Before you sign, read the fine print and add up what you’ll pay over the life of the device, not just this month.
Buy It Once and It’s Yours
GPS and Track works differently. Once your purchase is done, the tracker belongs to you.
Why? Because we don’t believe in them. You shouldn’t have to keep paying for a device you already bought, and you shouldn’t need to dig through a contract to find out what leaving will cost you.
Hardwired or Battery Powered, Matched to What You Track
The right tracker depends on what you’re protecting and how you plan to use it. Hardwired devices draw power from the vehicle, while battery-powered devices can go just about anywhere without wiring.
You don’t have to sort that out alone. Tell us what you need to track, and we’ll point you to the device that fits. GPS and Track serves major customers across the industry, and we bring that same experience to every conversation, whether you’re tracking one vehicle or many.
