Frequently asked questions

Which server do I need for Traccar?

A small fleet runs well on a modest Linux VPS. The right size depends on how many devices you have and how often they report. I'll recommend a server and provider that fits your fleet and budget.

Can you install Traccar on my existing server?

Yes. I can install on your existing VPS or cloud server, or set up a new one for you. I'll check it has enough resources and a supported Linux version first.

Do you support my GPS tracker model?

Traccar supports over 1,900 device models, including Teltonika, Concox, Queclink, Coban and many others, plus phone apps. Tell me your models and I'll confirm the protocol and port.

Will I own the server and data?

Yes. Everything runs on your server and your domain. You get all logins, and your tracking data stays under your control.

Can you add my branding?

Yes. The web interface can use your logo, colours and domain. For a fully branded platform, see the white-label Traccar platform service, and for branded mobile apps, the white-label GPS tracking app service.

What happens after installation?

You can run the server yourself with the notes I provide, or choose the Traccar maintenance service so updates, backups and monitoring are handled for you.
