Home / Trackers by requirement
If your insurer has asked you to fit an approved vehicle tracker, Moto Halo S7 Pro may meet the requirement. S7 Pro is professionally installed and Thatcham approved, but you should always confirm the exact tracker standard required by your insurer before arranging installation.
Moto Halo gives you two GPS tracking options. For insurance requirements involving Thatcham approval or professional installation, S7 Pro is the relevant product in the range.
S7 Pro combines Thatcham approval with professional covert installation, real-time GPS tracking and connection to Moto Halo's 24/7 monitoring call centre.
Once installed and activated, the system provides security alerts alongside location tracking, helping you keep informed about your vehicle from your phone.
S7 Pro is the Thatcham-approved tracker in the Moto Halo range.
The tracker is fitted covertly rather than installed by the vehicle owner.
S7 Pro connects to Moto Halo's monitoring call centre.

The phrase insurance-approved tracker is commonly used when an insurer requires a vehicle to have a particular type of tracking or security system.
There is not one requirement that applies to every insurance company and every policy. Your insurer may specify a particular approval, tracking standard or installation requirement before they will accept the system.
This is why it is important to check your policy or speak directly to your insurer before choosing a tracker.
Moto Halo S7 Pro is Thatcham approved and professionally installed. These characteristics can make it suitable where an insurer has requested approved vehicle tracking, but acceptance remains subject to your individual insurer and policy.
If your insurer has specified Thatcham approval or professional installation, Moto Halo S7 Pro is the appropriate option within the Moto Halo range.
Alongside its Thatcham approval, S7 Pro provides real-time GPS tracking and tracker notifications. It can detect an engine start, battery disconnection and the vehicle being towed away.
SMS and call security alerts are available, with the system supported by Moto Halo's 24/7 monitoring call centre.
S7 Pro also records journey information, including trip reports, maps and maximum and average speed data.
Moto Halo Lite is a self-install GPS tracker and is not Thatcham approved.
Lite still provides real-time GPS location, tracker notifications, Trip Start, battery information and journey history through the Moto Halo app. However, it does not include the professional covert installation, 24/7 monitoring call centre, SMS and call security alerts, engine start detection or tow-away detection provided with S7 Pro.
If your insurer specifically requires a Thatcham-approved or professionally installed tracking system, Lite does not meet those requirements.
If no such requirement applies and you want a tracker you can install yourself, Moto Halo Lite may be worth considering.
Vehicle insurance policies and security requirements vary, so check what your provider has actually requested before arranging a tracker.
Look for any wording relating to vehicle tracking, security devices or conditions of cover.
Ask your insurer which tracker approval or standard they require if the policy wording is unclear.
If the requirement specifies Thatcham approval and professional installation, S7 Pro is the relevant Moto Halo option.
Checking first can help you avoid choosing a tracker that does not satisfy the conditions set by your insurer.
S7 Pro is designed for vehicle owners who need more than a self-install GPS tracker.
Professional installation means the tracker is fitted covertly rather than left visible inside the vehicle. The system then combines real-time GPS with several ways of keeping you informed about vehicle activity.
Engine start detection can identify when the vehicle is started, while tow-away detection adds another layer of monitoring when the vehicle is moved without being driven normally. Battery disconnection detection can also identify a loss of connection to the vehicle battery.
S7 Pro's 24/7 monitoring call centre and SMS and call security alerts provide the monitored element that is not included with Moto Halo Lite.
A Thatcham-approved tracker may help reduce the cost of vehicle insurance with some providers, but a lower premium is not guaranteed.
Any difference will depend on factors including the insurer, vehicle and individual policy. If reducing your premium is one of the reasons you are considering S7 Pro, ask your insurer whether fitting the tracker would affect your quote before ordering.
The same applies where an insurer has made tracking a condition of cover. Confirm what they require rather than assuming that any GPS tracker will qualify.
Moto Halo S7 Pro is professionally installed and hidden from view.
To get started, request a quote and provide the details Moto Halo needs about your vehicle. An installation appointment can then be arranged at a suitable location, including your home, workplace or a designated fitting centre.
After fitting, complete the activation process and subscription details through the Moto Halo app. Your S7 Pro can then provide its connected tracking, monitoring and alert features.

There is no single tracker requirement used by every insurer. Check your policy or ask your insurance provider which approval, standard or installation method they require before choosing a tracker.
Moto Halo S7 Pro is Thatcham approved and professionally installed. Whether it meets your insurance company's specific requirements depends on your insurer and policy, so confirm their requirements before ordering.
Moto Halo Lite is not Thatcham approved and is designed for self-installation. If your insurer specifically requires a Thatcham-approved or professionally installed tracker, choose S7 Pro. If no such condition applies, ask your insurer whether Lite is acceptable for your policy.
That depends on the conditions set by your insurer. S7 Pro is professionally installed, while Moto Halo Lite is designed for self-installation. If professional fitting has been specified by your insurer, Lite would not meet that requirement.
It may with some insurers, particularly where an approved tracking system is recognised as part of the vehicle's security. A saving is not guaranteed, so ask your insurer how fitting S7 Pro would affect your individual policy or quote.
Thatcham approval refers to a tracking or security system having met the applicable Thatcham Research criteria. ‘Insurance approved’ is commonly used to describe a tracker that satisfies an insurer's requirements, but those requirements can vary. S7 Pro is Thatcham approved, while acceptance for insurance purposes should be confirmed with your provider.
If your insurer has specified an approved tracking system, check the exact requirement before arranging installation. Moto Halo S7 Pro provides Thatcham-approved tracking with professional covert fitting, real-time GPS and 24/7 monitoring.
