Ctrack has launched a commitment-free option for its self-installed telematics system, so car and van operators can upscale or adapt their vehicle tracking without paying for when devices are not in use.

The new payment solution will be available with Ctrack Plug & Play.

John Wisdom, European managing director of Ctrack, said: “Our commitment-free offering will appeal to a range of companies that are looking to monitor temporary fleet requirements or vehicles that are not directly owned by their business.

“For example, a home delivery business or courier may need to expand its tracking system during the Christmas peak trading period, while a service management company may want to monitor vehicles operated by a sub-contractor for a particular contract or time period.”

This latest development will allow companies to purchase Ctrack Plug & Play with a one-off charge along with an agreed monthly fee that is only payable if the device has been connected during this time period.

Ctrack Plug & Play connects to the OBD II diagnostic port of the car or van in a matter of seconds to capture a wide range of telematics data.

The device can be swapped between different vehicles as and when required.
