GPS Tracker Hardware Only vs 1-Year Service: Which Should You Choose?
Dimension Max GPS trackers are available as GPS tracker Hardware Only or Hardware + 1-Year Service Included, so you can choose the payment style that fits your use case.
Quick comparison
| Option | Includes | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Hardware Only | GPS tracker device only | Customers who want to activate service separately |
| Hardware + 1-Year Service | GPS tracker plus 12 months of tracking service from activation | Customers who prefer one upfront payment |
Recommendation
For long-term daily tracking, the 1-year service option is usually simpler. For temporary projects, seasonal assets, or future activation, Hardware Only gives you more control.
Choose Hardware Only
Best when you want to buy the device now and activate service later.
Choose 1-Year Service
Best when you want one upfront payment and no monthly billing during the first year.
Same device
Both options use the same GPS tracker hardware; the difference is the included service period.
