SPOT X provides 2-way satellite messaging when you’re off the grid or beyond reliable cellular coverage. Connect SPOT X to your smart phone via Bluetooth wireless technology through the SPOT X app to access your contacts and communicate easily with family, friends, or directly with Search & Rescue services in a life-threatening situation. If preferred or when necessary, SPOT X can be used as a standalone communication device. SPOT X has its own dedicated U.S. mobile number, so others can message you directly at any time.

Overwatch x Rescue Plan

Upgrade to the Overwatch x Rescue (OxR) Plan in SPOT My Account to protect against expenses related to an emergency situation. The OxR plan reduces and, in many cases, eliminates the financial exposure tied to a rescue. OxR has no monetary limits for response and no elevation limitations for those that like to mountain climb. Standard benefits include no cost response to hazardous summer and winter sports; point of incident medical evacuations to the nearest appropriate medical facility, to include ground ambulance and rescue helicopter expenses; search and rescue costs; the visit of a family member or friend if you become hospitalized while traveling abroad; response to natural disasters; riots, strikes and civil commotion; and so much more.

Additional Considerations 

The SPOT X device requires an active service subscription to properly perform 2-way satellite messaging, tracking, SOS capabilities and all other device functions. All subscriptions auto-renew at the end of the contract term.

*Enrollment in any Flex Plan is subject to an Annual Flex Charge that is payable upon activation and then each year at renewal, even if the device is suspended at that time. This Flex Charge allows you to suspend the service at any time during the year without activation fee recurrence when turning service on again. All Flex Plans have a one month minimum term.

All Annual Contract Plans are 12 month terms with the option of monthly payments or one annual upfront payment. Those customers who prefer to make an upfront payment will get the added benefit of receiving allotted plan messages in advance for use as frequently as they would like throughout the year. Those customers who prefer to make monthly payments on the annual plan should note that unused messages will not roll over to the next month. All plans are subject to a one-time activation fee. No charge applies to changing to a more inclusive annual plan; a $25.00 (Inc. GST) fee applies to changing to a less inclusive annual plan. Early termination of the service agreement will require a customer to pay an Early Termination Fee to the amount of 100% of the outstanding balance of the contract, plus the full amount of any credits issued during the Term (including promotions).

Coverage Map

SPOT works around the world, including virtually all of the continental United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Australia, portions of South America, portions of North and South Africa, North-East Asia and hundreds of miles offshore of these areas.

Due to recent events in Ukraine, please see updated coverage maps for Globalstar and SPOT services.

Estimated coverage area. Actual coverage may vary. Success rates are forecasts for a SPOT messenger to successfully deliver a single message during a 20-minute period, based on network availability. Additionally, in everyday conditions it is normal for some messages to be blocked by your environment, such as hills or buildings. That's why the SPOT Messenger is scheduled to automatically send multiple messages in every mode – giving you excellent overall reliability.

BRAND AMBASSADORS

Justin & Patrice Lavigne

We are modern-day nomads, spending more time in the backcountry or on the road than settled somewhere. Over the years, our SPOT device has given peace of mind to our friends and families with our 12,000 cumulative trail miles and goals to reach the highest peak in every state. When Justin climbed Denali in 2016, I (Patrice) stalked his SPOT check-ins. I am so stoked we’ve upgraded to the SPOT X two-way satellite messenger for his 2019 Denali climb. As the person left behind, it will ease the worry at least some!
