Insurance-Approved Trackers: How to Protect Your Vehicle and Lower Costs

Protecting your vehicle has never been more important — and insurance-approved trackers are one of the most effective ways to do it. At Team Impulse Watford, we install Thatcham-approved tracking systems that keep your car secure while helping to reduce your insurance premiums.

These advanced trackers work by using GPS and GSM technology to monitor your vehicle’s location in real time. If your car is moved without authorisation, you’ll receive instant alerts, and in the event of theft, recovery teams can track and retrieve your vehicle quickly.

There are two main tracker categories approved by Thatcham Research — the UK’s independent vehicle security standard:

• Category S5 Trackers: The highest level of protection, featuring driver ID tags or immobilisation technology that prevents unauthorised movement.

• Category S7 Trackers: A cost-effective option providing 24/7 location tracking, motion alerts, and recovery assistance.

Both categories meet insurer requirements and are suitable for cars, vans, and high-value vehicles. Our professional fitting service ensures that your tracker is discreetly installed and fully operational, without affecting your vehicle’s electronics or warranty.

Insurance companies often offer discounts for vehicles fitted with approved trackers, a small investment that can quickly pay for itself. Whether you drive a performance car or a work van, adding a tracker is one of the best ways to protect what matters most.
