Everything you need, in the driver's pocket

ID button

The driver presses it when getting into the vehicle and the Vigilo tracker recognises them. Without an authorised fob, the vehicle will not start.

  • Ignition enabled only for people you authorise
  • Every trip assigned to its driver
  • Alert if someone tries to start without a fob
SOS

SOS button

In case of theft, assault or an emergency, one click sends the alert with the position on the map, without calling or unlocking a phone.

  • Instant alert on the platform and the app
  • GPS position, time and driver
  • Notification and email to whoever you choose
What you get

More control and more safety for your fleet

Know who is driving

Each fob belongs to one person: you know who drives each vehicle on every trip.

Stop unauthorised use

Without an approved fob nearby, the vehicle cannot be used, after hours or by anyone else.

Immediate help

The SOS button instantly alerts your control centre with the exact location so you can act fast.

Private and business mileage

Separate private trips from business trips and get reports by driver.

How it works

From the key fob to your screen

The fob transmits over Bluetooth and the Vigilo tracker installed in the vehicle detects it. The platform records the driver, controls the ignition and alerts you to every SOS.

  1. One fob per driver

    We register each fob on the platform and link it to a driver.

  2. ID when getting in

    The driver presses the ID button; the tracker recognises it and enables the ignition.

  3. Instant alerts

    If SOS is pressed, the platform and the app show the alert with the position and notify your team.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about the ID & SOS key fob

How does it stop the vehicle from being started without authorisation?

The Vigilo tracker keeps the ignition blocked until it detects an authorised fob. Without a fob, the vehicle will not start and you receive an alert.

What happens when the SOS button is pressed?

An alert is sent instantly to the platform and the app with the GPS position, the time and the driver, and the people you choose are notified.

How long does the battery last?

Up to 500 days depending on use. It is a standard coin cell and can be changed in seconds.

Does it work with my tracker?

It works with Vigilo trackers with Bluetooth. We will tell you whether yours is compatible and, if not, suggest the right device.

Can I see who drove each vehicle?

Yes. Every trip is recorded with the identified driver and you can get reports by driver.

Is it waterproof?

It is IP41 rated: it withstands dust and water drops from everyday use, but it must not be submerged.

Want to know who is driving each vehicle?
