Cases where the animals are recovered
Without tracking, most stolen livestock is never seen again. The trail goes cold within hours because nobody knows which direction they went.

What would it cost to protect your herd?
Change the two numbers below. Everything updates as you type. Nothing is sent to us and you do not have to give us your details.
Your herd
Slide or type. The calculator handles anything from five animals to five thousand.
In rand. R12,000 is a reasonable average for beef cattle. Use your own figure if you know it.
How we work it out. One GPS collar covers about twenty five animals,
because cattle move as a herd. The subscription is charged per collar. Prices shown are the
full researched range, not a single number, because your final quote depends on terrain,
gateway coverage and how many farmers nearby are joining with you.

Free to ask, and no obligation. We will tell you honestly if we are not the right fit for your farm.
Please read this as a guide, not a quote.
The figures use the midpoint of our researched price ranges and assume one collar per twenty five
animals. Your real cost depends on how far apart your animals graze, whether a gateway already
covers your area, and whether you buy as part of a cooperative, which is cheaper. AniTrac is at
pilot stage, so pricing may change once the first deployments are complete.
Putting it in context
What that spend actually buys
Seconds
Between movement and alert
The difference between finding out at first light and finding out immediately is the difference between a recovery and a loss.
10 to 15%
Possible insurance premium discount
Insurers have indicated they would discount premiums for tracked herds. Not yet agreed, so treat this as an expected benefit rather than a promise.
