FollowGB offers the UK’s first Pay-As-You-Go GPS tracking solution with no subscription or long term contracts

FollowGB Ltd, (“FollowGB”) the UK’s premier GPS location provider, is pleased to announce that it is able to provide its new Trimtrac GPS tracking solution on a Pay-As-You-Go basis saving users substantial costs and without nasty contracts.  This location is then delivered to the Customer on a street map via the FollowGB website.

This revolutionary development enables FollowGB to offer the location of the Trimtrac GPS device, which is accurate to within 10 meters, at an extremely low cost and enabling the user to decide how much they want to spend and when.

To activate the service, the customer can purchase the Trimtrac GPS tracker on line from our shopping cart www.followgb.co.uk.  Thereafter, they can simply add their device to the tracking console and start the on-line set-up process.  Once activated, the FollowGB server will pull raw location data from the GPS tracker and calculate the position, before importing it into a street level map and delivering to the customer.

Thomas Coyne, Technical Director for FollowGB said: “We are delighted with the market response to our FollowGB tracking console and in particular, the Trimtrac tracker.  This retail product operates on batteries, does not require hardware installation and has an in-built antenna, so is simplicity itself. This combined with our global mapping means this device any be tracked, anytime, anywhere….

This is a real answer to the home user or smaller business, whom until now, could not afford the more expensive GPS tracking solutions currently in the market place.  Our development has swung open the barn door and will enable home users an introduction to high accuracy low cost location information.
