How S7 Trackers Work

The S7 tracking device is designed to be discreetly fitted into each vehicle, so as to avoid detection from potential thieves. After installation, the tracker uses GPS and GSM technology to collect the vehicles location data, which is then transferred to the remote monitoring centre as well as the compatible mobile tracking app.

In the event of a theft, the tracker will immediately begin sending alerts and updated location information to the app and monitoring centre, allowing authorised personnel the ability to track the vehicles location in real time.

Keep track of your vehicle’s whereabouts at all times with the S7’s advanced GPS tracking capabilities. The addition of the Tow & Tamper alert also means you’ll be automatically alerted every time your vehicle is moved without prior authorisation. Alerts will also be sent out to 24/7 security monitoring centres, ensuring rapid police response and increased vehicle recovery rates.

Monitor your asset’s movements through Crystal Ball’s highly intuitive mobile tracking app. Compatible with the Thatcham S7 tracker, you’ll be able to track your vehicle’s real-time location and view comprehensive journey history reports. With its intuitive interface, you’ll have everything you need to know about your vehicles available at your fingertips.

Who Uses S7 Trackers?

The installation of the latest S7 trackers in vehicles offers various advantages to a wide range of companies, industries, and individuals.

Vehicle rental companies

  • For businesses that rent out large numbers of vehicles, vehicle trackers are an essential tool to track their location and keep them secure. Through implementing the S7 trackers, rental companies will be able to provide their customers with peace of mind due to this added level of safety. The trackers will also be able to help prevent thieves from stealing their vehicles and recover any stolen vehicles more efficiently, thereby reducing any potential financial loss.

High-value vehicle owners

  • Aside from commercial use, Thatcham trackers can also be used for tracking personal vehicles. This is especially useful if it is a high value car as these vehicles are the most at risk of theft. Owners of high-value personal cars will be able to strengthen their vehicles security features while also reducing insurance costs.

James Sherratt

Fleet Manager, MSL Vehicle Solutions

I decided to transfer our fleet over to CB and it's one of the best decisions I have ever made. Their team are superb to deal with, in the current climate with vehicle utilisation being so high I was apprehensive about the task of getting everything switched over, but the team have made this as easy and flexible as possible. The technology they offer is far superior to our previous provider. If you are considering changing your provider, I would certainly recommend speaking to the team at Crystal Ball.

Steve Potter

Transport Manager, ThyssenKrupp

Our main reasons for employing tracking were the traceability issues, keeping an eye on deliveries and the security factors. But Crystal Ball has given us so much more than that. We’ve made savings everywhere, and I wouldn’t want to run this fleet without it now.

Thatcham S7 Tracker FAQs

  • What’s the difference between the S5 and S7 trackers?

    As the very first Thatcham Category, the S7 has significantly fewer features than the S5. The S7 trackers are not hardwired into the vehicle but instead are simply battery powered. The tracker is also only accurate within a few hundred yards, communicating via its RF frequency. If you’re looking for a reliable and high security tracking system, we highly recommend installing the S5 tracker.

  • What is Thatcham?

    Thatcham, also known as the Motor Insurance Repair Research Centre, is an independent organisation that is dedicated to the maintenance and development of road vehicle safety in the UK. Established in 1969, Thatcham aims to increase vehicle safety and security while reducing the cost of insurance premiums. To achieve this, Thatcham tests, categorises, and approves vehicle trackers submitted by manufacturers.

    It’s important to note that Thatcham trackers are not produced by Thatcham themselves but are approved by the organisation according to their stringent safety and security criteria.

  • Can Thatcham S7 trackers be used for personal vehicles?

    Yes, Thatcham approved S7 trackers can be installed and used for your personal vehicles. The high level of security these trackers provide, alongside their relative affordability, makes them an excellent additional security measure for both mid-range and high value personal vehicles.
