ZOLEO has introduced a simpler subscription structure designed to make choosing the right satellite messaging plan quicker, clearer and more affordable. Customers can now choose between two main ZOLEO subscription plans: Prepare and Protect.
Both plans include the essential safety features ZOLEO users rely on when travelling, working or adventuring beyond reliable mobile coverage. The biggest difference is how many messages you expect to send each month.
What Is Changing With ZOLEO Subscription Plans?
The previous three-plan structure is being replaced by two straightforward options:
-
Prepare: £17.99 per month
-
Protect: £29.99 per month
-
Reduced Activation Fee of £19.99 (was £39.99)
The new plans are intended to remove unnecessary complexity while making unlimited satellite messaging considerably more affordable.

Essential Safety Features Are Included With Both Plans
Customers do not need to choose the most expensive plan to access ZOLEO’s core safety functionality.
Every active Prepare or Protect subscription includes:
-
Unlimited Check-In Messages
Send quick check-in messages to let your chosen contacts know that you are safe.
-
SOS Functionality
Trigger an SOS through your ZOLEO satellite communicator when faced with a serious emergency beyond mobile coverage.
-
24/7 SOS Monitoring
SOS alerts are monitored around the clock, helping to connect users with the appropriate emergency response support.
Whether you choose Prepare or Protect, the features intended to protect you and reassure your Safety Circle remain included.
Pause Your ZOLEO Plan Between Trips
The ZOLEO Pause plan remains available for seasonal users who do not need a full subscription throughout the year. For £4 per month, Pause allows you to retain your ZOLEO account, SMS number, and email address.
You can then reactivate a full Prepare or Protect subscription when you are ready to travel again, without setting everything up from scratch.
The Pause plan does not provide active satellite messaging or SOS service. A full subscription must be reactivated before using your ZOLEO device in the field.
Optional ZOLEO Add-Ons
Customers can continue to enhance their ZOLEO subscription with additional services.
-
Location Share+: allows users to share their location with selected contacts.
-
Field Rescue Membership: annual membership for emergency field-rescue transportation to the nearest appropriate medical facility. Optional add-on for £29 per year.
Terms, eligibility requirements and coverage conditions apply, so customers should review the full membership information before purchasing.
Stay Connected Beyond Mobile Coverage With ZOLEO
ZOLEO combines satellite messaging, mobile connectivity and Wi-Fi communication through one compact device and the ZOLEO mobile app.
When mobile service disappears, an active ZOLEO subscription allows users to continue sending messages, checking in with contacts and accessing monitored SOS support through the Iridium satellite network.
The new Prepare and Protect plans make it easier to select a subscription based on how often you communicate, without compromising on the essential safety features included with every active plan.
