Globalstar

For the reseller

Globalstar: the brand that lets you charge where there is no mobile signal

Not exactly a tracker manufacturer: it is a US satellite operator that also builds the devices using its network, among them the well-known SPOT family.

Who you sell it to: mining, extensive agriculture, routes through empty country, mountains and sea. Also as a safety backup for staff working alone and far away.

What it earns you: it is your answer to the objection that loses you sales today — «there's no signal out there». With this you stop saying no. And the customer who needs it doesn't negotiate on price, because he has no alternative.

What to watch: the satellite service cost is recurring and far above a SIM. Build it into your price from day one and explain to the customer that reporting every minute by satellite is not viable — it is quoted per event, not per second.

For selling where there is no coverage: satellite coverage, tracking in agriculture and freight transport.

Which protocol it speaks: Globalstar devices reach the platform over the Globalstar, SPOT and Thuraya protocols. Their pages explain what they are and how they work.
