Cartrack’s “car guard in your pocket”, explained.
Updated 30 September 2026 · Tracker Prices South Africa
Tracker Prices SA is an independent comparison site. We are not Cartrack and are not affiliated with it, so we cannot access your account, log you in or cancel a contract for you. Facts on this page were checked against official Cartrack sources in September 2026; the provider’s own website is always the final word.
When you park, you switch CarWatch on for that vehicle. If the car moves while CarWatch is active, the unit detects it and the app sends you a push notification, so you can decide what to do – call Cartrack’s control room, the police or security. Cartrack describes it as “your own personal car guard”.
Tracker offers a similar in-app Car Guard. With Matrix, live-tracking plans (Silver, Gold) send movement alerts, and the Matrix Vision dashcam adds video and live streaming.
If you are reviewing your Cartrack contract, compare it with Matrix before you renew. Matrix Beame gives insurer-approved recovery from R99 a month with no wiring, and the new Matrix Vision dashcam adds road-facing and in-cab AI cameras, collision and distraction alerts and live streaming from R359 a month. Both come from MiX by Powerfleet, one of South Africa’s longest-running vehicle telematics companies.
