What is a satellite tracker and how does it work?
Satellite trackers send your location in real-time using satellite networks, so you can be followed, found, or assisted even in areas without mobile signal.
Who should use a satellite tracker?
Ideal for solo hikers, remote workers, sailors, and explorers, anyone venturing where mobile coverage can’t be relied on.
Is there a monthly fee for using a tracker?
Yes, most trackers require a service plan for messaging or location updates. GTC offers flexible subscriptions with no long-term commitments.
Can I send messages from a satellite tracker?
Many trackers, like inReach devices, allow two-way text messaging, SOS alerts, and check-ins, even from deep wilderness or at sea.
Do satellite trackers work worldwide?
It depends on the network, Iridium-based trackers offer global coverage, while others have more limited ranges. GTC helps match the device to your destination.
