Which Thatcham tracker do you need?Which tracker do you need?

Start with the exact category on your insurance schedule. S7 and S5 are different Thatcham categories; an S7 purchase does not satisfy a policy that specifies S5. Ask your insurer if the wording is unclear.

Choose the category on your insurance policy. If it says S5, S7 won’t meet that requirement.

What is included, and how much is monitoring?

Our standard wired S7, S5 and S5 Plus packages include the device and professional installation. Monitoring is separate at £10.99/month. Choose monthly payments or a prepaid option on the product page. With monthly monitoring, the first month is paid at checkout and subsequent payments are set up separately.

See current product prices above, or use our tracker cost comparison for worked first-year totals. Extra fobs and specialist packages can affect the amount you pay.

Choose the category your insurer requires

S7 provides tracking and recovery support. S5 adds driver recognition. Our S5 Plus packages add immobilisation to S5 tracking. If your policy asks for S5, S7 is not a substitute. Confirm the exact device and fitting arrangement your insurer accepts.

Fitting at home or work

We arrange mobile installation through our UK fitting network. Give us your postcode, vehicle details and three preferred dates so the team can confirm the appointment and access requirements. Preferred dates are requests until the booking is agreed.

Our Thatcham tracker installation guide explains location checks, delivery, fitting and certificate handover. For the S7 battery model, follow the separate self-fit instructions and remote verification process.

What happens after checkout?

Keep your confirmation handy and follow the delivery and booking instructions. For fitted systems, the team coordinates installation and activation. Your digital certificate is issued immediately once installation and commissioning are complete. Check the certificate details and send it to your insurer if requested.

Ask our team for help or call 01924 976922.

S5 driver recognition and S5 Plus start protection

Automatic Driver Recognition checks for an authorised driver tag and supports unauthorised-use alerts. It does not itself prevent an engine start. Our standard S5 Plus adds tag-operated No Tag, No Start; the dedicated EV/hybrid package uses a PIN entered with vehicle buttons. Check the exact product specification and vehicle compatibility.

For the certification categories, see Thatcham Research’s security certification guidance, which lists S5 Vehicle Tracking Systems and S7 Asset Location Systems. S5 Plus is our description of an enhanced S5 package, not a separate Thatcham certification category. Thatcham Research also explains that certification does not guarantee insurer recognition: confirm acceptance of the exact device with your insurer.

Compare the full cost before choosing

Use our dated fitted-price and first-year cost table to compare S7, S5 and S5 Plus with the same twelve months of monitoring. For motorhomes, read our motorhome selection guide. For added start protection, see trackers and immobilisers explained.
