Frequently Asked Questions
General
How many GPS trackers can I add to my account?
There is no limit. You are able to add as many trackers as you want, as long as they are “PLX” trackers. If you are managing an organisation, you can create sub-accounts and set your own restrictions for them.
What does my subscription include and how do I sign up?
Your Overwatch Tracking subscription grants you access to our advanced GPS tracking platform and secure server, along with connectivity to Telstra’s enterprise-grade 4G Cat-M1 network, offering the best coverage across Australia.
After purchasing your GPS tracker, simply sign up when you are ready, and your account details will be emailed to you within 24 hours.
Is it cheaper to purchase my own sim?
Our PLX trackers will not work with your own sim card, and it is usually more expensive if you use your own.
Please be advised that Aldi Mobile and other operators have been disabling sim cards that are used for M2M purposes (such as GPS trackers) as it’s against their ToS. If you are using a tracker through a regular network operator, it’s recommended to move to our PLX range.
If you were to use your own sim card, you would be expected to pay $15-30 per month, just for the sim card. Overwatch Tracking includes the sim, server, and the platform for $15/m.
