GPS trackers work like cell phones — they need a cellular data connection to send their location to the app. Your subscription covers the cellular connectivity, the Spytec app (iOS, Android, and web), unlimited tracking, and US-based support.

If you're tracking a vehicle with a port (2010 or newer), the Pulse OBD is the easiest — it plugs in under the dash in 30 seconds. For covert tracking, the Atlas Portable with magnetic case sticks under any vehicle. For kids, bags, or valuables, Atlas Mini is pocket-sized. For boats, RVs, or trailers that sit for months, Atlas XL's 18-month battery is the best fit. For motorcycles or ATVs, Moto is weatherproof and vibration-resistant.

The Atlas Portable and Pulse Wired are designed for covert placement and don't give off any noticeable signal. The Pulse OBD plugs into the OBD port under the dash — it's out of sight but not hidden. Please note that laws about tracking adults without consent vary by state. Tracking your own vehicle or a minor child you're responsible for is generally legal everywhere in the US.

The annual plan costs less per month — up to 40% less on Pulse OBD, for example — but you pay for the year upfront. Monthly is billed every month and you can cancel anytime. Both plans include the same features, the same device, and the same support. Pick monthly if you want flexibility, annual if you want to save.

You can cancel anytime with zero penalties. If you're on an annual plan and cancel mid-term, service continues until the end of your paid period. We never charge early-termination or cancellation fees.
