Features to know about

How Quickly Will You Know If Your Trailer Starts Moving?

Once you mount the PingMaster with the included magnets or screws and set it up, you're ready to protect your trailer with alerts to your phone that trigger the moment it starts to move. Instead of waiting for a delayed update or discovering the problem hours later, you'll know right away when something changes. The system also shifts into a faster update rate during motion, giving you more frequent location points while the trailer is on the move. It's built to give you the awareness and reaction time in situations when every minute matters.

How Does It Track When GPS Signal Is Weak?

Your trailer doesn't always sit in perfect GPS conditions, and that's where WiFi and cellular backup make up the difference. If your trailer is inside a metal building or parked in a low-signal area, the tracker can still report its location using nearby WiFi networks or cellular triangulation. That extra layer of coverage helps eliminate the blind spots that standard GPS-only units struggle with.

How Long Will the Battery Last on Your Trailer?

This tracker delivers 3,000 guaranteed pings, giving you years of dependable service without the cycle of constant charging or battery upkeep. That means you can mount it once and rely on it year after year without wondering if it's still powered. With fewer interruptions and no maintenance schedule to manage, it removes one more thing from your to-do list so you can focus on the important things.

What Can You Do in the Tracking App?

The mobile dashboard gives you an easy way to check your trailer's location, set movement alerts, and keep an eye on activity with just a quick look on your phone.


You'll be able to:

  • Set "geofences" to know the moment your trailer leaves or enters a specific area.
  • Track movement history to see where your trailer has been and how long it stayed there.
  • Review location timelines to understand patterns or confirm recent use.
  • Mark authorized or unauthorized activity to stay aware of who is moving your trailer.
  • Monitor maintenance intervals so you can keep your equipment in reliable condition.
  • View all your trailers in a single dashboard to stay organized at a glance.

These tools provide the kind of everyday visibility that lets you stay connected to your trailer wherever it's stored or wherever it's headed.

How Do You Activate the Tracker and Manage Service?

You can activate the service by scanning the included QR code and following the steps in the app. There are no contracts or surprise fees, and you only pay for the service you choose. It's a transparent setup that gives you full control from the start, which is helpful if you've dealt with complicated activations or unclear pricing from other tracking systems.

I really like the extra peace of mind the PingMaster PM74FR offers. Once it’s installed, it quietly keeps an eye on your trailer and lets you know right away if it starts moving, which is so reassuring when it’s parked or stored away from home.

What makes this version stand out for me is the WiFi backup. It primarily uses GPS for tracking, but if satellite coverage isn’t great, it can also check in over nearby WiFi. That’s really helpful in storage facilities, garages, or areas where signals can be spotty, and it helps reduce gaps in location updates.

The battery life is impressive, too. With thousands of pings available, it’s something you can mount and rely on long-term without worrying about charging or constant maintenance. I also appreciate how easy the app is to use checking location, setting alerts, and keeping tabs on activity all feels very straightforward.

Overall, this is a great option if you want reliable trailer tracking with an extra layer of backup coverage. It’s one of those products that helps you worry less and feel more confident leaving your trailer where it belongs.

See what our Experts say about this PingMaster Trailer GPS Tracker

  • Will Normal Movement Around Parking Lot Trigger Constant Alerts To PingMaster Tracking App?
    Hey Laura! PingMaster’s motion-sensing technology is designed to ignore minor movement like wind or small repositioning, but there's a chance it could go off as soon as it starts moving around the yard/lot. In that case, you can set parameters so that you only get notified if it leaves the yard/lot. Tthe app lets you adjust and customize things like this, along with setting up an alarm that goes off on the trailer itself. What is this going on? We have the 3000 model # PM84FR with wifi...

  • Which PingMaster Trailer Tracker System Is Best To Use On My Trailer To Prevent Theft?
    Megan, it really comes down to how often you want location updates. The PingMaster 3000 w/ WiFi Backup # PM84FR provides 3,000 guaranteed pings from the battery, which can last around 7+ years at 2 pings per day. If you want more frequent tracking or long-term coverage with heavier use, the PingMaster 5000 models # PM64FR or # PM74FR give you extra headroom with 5,000 pings. PingMaster says these usually last about 12+ years at 2 pings per day. All three offer instant motion alerts - it’s...

  • GPS Tracker For Trailers That Are Store In A Warehouse With Bad GPS Signal
    Denise, that’s where WiFi backup really comes in handy. The PingMaster 3000 w/ WiFi Backup # PM84FR and PingMaster 5000 w/ WiFi Backup # PM74FR can report approximate locations using WiFi and cellular triangulation when GPS satellites aren’t reachable indoors. Now they don't actually connect to a WiFi source, but use it to ping off of it. The PingMaster 5000 # PM64FR can still fall back on cellular towers, but it won’t have the added WiFi layer. If indoor storage is common for you, the...

  • Are There Long-Term Service Contracts To Use PingMaster Trailer Tracking Devices?
    No long-term contract, Natalie - but a service plan is required to use the trackers. When you buy the 3000 with wifi assist # PM84FR, 5000 # PM64FR, or 5000 with wifi assist # PM74FR from etrailer, you’re purchasing the hardware/device only. To activate tracking, you’ll scan the included QR code and set up a monthly service plan directly with PingMaster through their app. There’s no long-term commitment, but the tracker won’t report location or alerts without an active plan. If you’re...

  • Does PingMaster Trailer Tracker GPS Device Work On Multiple Trailers Or Fleets?
    Absolutely, Brian. The PingMaster app lets you view multiple trackers in a single dashboard, whether you’re running a 3000 # PM84FR with wifi assist, 5000 # PM64FR, 5000 with wifi assist # PM74FR, or a mix of them. That’s especially helpful for fleets or anyone juggling multiple trailers. I really like how you can customize the parameters and fine-tune the alerts and alarms. How many trailers are you looking to track?

All three models - the PingMaster 3000 w/ WiFi Backup # PM84FR and both PingMaster 5000 versions # PM64FR and # PM74FR - use motion-sensing alerts that notify you the moment the trailer starts moving, not hours later. Once movement is detected, they automatically shift into faster tracking so you can see where it’s headed in real time from your phone. If your trailer ever gets repositioned legitimately, you can...

  • How Accurate Are The PingMaster Trailer GPS Trackers?
    Steve, when GPS signal is available, all three models provide accurate outdoor tracking. The 5000 ping model # PM74FR and 3000 ping model # PM84FR add WiFi-based positioning when GPS and cell tower isn’t available, while the standard 5000 ping model # PM64FR uses GPS and cellular tower only and doesn't ping off wifi signals. You’ll always see whether the trailer is parked or moving, along with direction and speed during motion. You can also use their app to track maintenance intervals...

  • Does PingMaster Trailer Tracker Device Let You Know How Long It's Been Parked In One Spot?

That applies to all three models: -PingMaster 3000 w/ WiFi Backup # PM84FR -PingMaster 5000 # PM64FR -PingMaster 5000 w/ WiFi backup # PM74FR. It’s useful for delivery tracking, jobsite verification, or just peace of mind. Do you have a fleet, or just one trailer?

  • Do PingMaster Trailer Trackers Actually Need To Connect To Wifi?
    No, Josh. The PingMaster trailer tracker devices like 3000 # PM84FR and 5000 # PM74FR don’t require you to connect to a WiFi network. They automatically use nearby WiFi signals when available and ping off it, along with cellular data. GPS remains the primary method whenever satellites are reachable.

  • How Long Is Battery Life On PingMaster Trailer Tracker Device?
    Chris, battery life is measured by pings rather than calendar time. The # PM84FR delivers 3,000 pings, while the # PM64FR and # PM74FR deliver 5,000 pings. At 2 pings per day, the 5000 models can last around 12 years while the 3000 model can last around 7 years at 2 pings per day. You can adjust ping frequency anytime in the app, so you control the balance between detail and battery life. No matter which ping rating you go with, I'd spend the extra few bucks for the wifi compatible model....

    Yes, Rob - that’s one of the big advantages here with the PingMaster trailer tracker systems.

They mount using the built-in magnet or included screws, with no wiring or battery hookups required. They have a built-in battery that lasts 7-12 years depending on which one you pick.
