Everything you need to know before you start
What is the difference between a GSM GPS tracker and a satellite GPS tracker?
A GSM tracker transmits over the mobile network: ideal on covered routes. A satellite tracker transmits via satellite and works everywhere, including in the desert, at sea or high in the mountains.Learn more
Do the GPS trackers work without GSM coverage?
Yes, with our satellite trackers: they send their position from anywhere in the world, without any mobile network. GSM trackers need mobile coverage, and we advise you on the right model for your route.
Can Owaka cover events abroad?
Yes. We equip events all over Europe and far beyond, from Morocco to Saudi Arabia, with support available 7 days a week during the race.
How is the start list set up (importing participants)?
You send us the start list and we import it into your platform, pairing each tracker with its participant.
What is the average price to rent a GPS tracker for a weekend?
The price depends on the number of trackers, the length of the event and the network chosen. Request a free demo: we send you a custom quote within 24 h.
