Azuga pricing and the four-year default term
Azuga pricing is published, and the ladder is simple: BasicFleet at $25 per vehicle per month, SafeFleet at $30, CompleteFleet at $35. The SafetyCam AI camera add-on is listed at $41.99 a month on any tier.
All verified on Azuga's own pricing page on 30 September 2026, with no quote required to see any of it.
The number that is not on that page is the one that decides the cost. Azuga's licence agreement states that where the Order does not set out an initial term, the initial term is four years, and each Order renews automatically for a period equal to that term unless you give at least 60 days' notice of non-renewal.
Multiply it through and the published rate reads differently. Four years of BasicFleet is $1,200 per vehicle.
Across 50 vehicles that is a $60,000 commitment entered on a page that shows a $25 monthly figure. The rate is honest; the term is where the cost lives.
Rajat Gupta runs FleetOpsClub and writes its software reviews, comparisons and pricing pages. Every tool on the site is assessed against the vendor's own published documentation and pricing, and each pricing figure carries the date it was last verified so readers can judge how current it is. Where a vendor does not publish a price, the page says so rather than estimating one.

Azuga pricing
Take the tiers in order, because the gaps are small and the capabilities are not. BasicFleet at $25 covers GPS tracking, alerts, geofencing, reports, driver rewards, maintenance and diagnostics.
SafeFleet at $30 adds one-minute location updates, safety tools, messaging, API integration, fuel-card links and deeper diagnostics. CompleteFleet at $35 adds 30-second updates.
The first $5 step buys six named capabilities including API access; the second buys a faster refresh interval.
Price that second step before you pay it. Thirty-second instead of one-minute updates costs $5 per vehicle per month, which is $60 per vehicle a year and $6,000 a year across 100 vehicles.
For a courier operation dispatching live against moving vehicles that may be worth it. For a service fleet reviewing yesterday's routes it is $6,000 for a difference nobody will notice.
Public procurement records show other vendors pricing the same upgrade explicitly: Zonar charges $2.80 per vehicle per month for rapid GPS logging and a District of Columbia contract prices Teletrac Navman's minute-level updates at $5.00, so a refresh interval being a billable line is normal rather than unusual.
SafetyCam inverts the usual assumption about where the money goes. At $41.99 a month it costs more per vehicle than CompleteFleet, the top tracking tier, so a fully equipped vehicle runs at $76.99 a month, or $3,695 over a four-year term.
That ratio is consistent across the category: Verizon Connect's published government card prices a dual-channel camera at $24.45 against a $15.95 tracking base, and ClearPathGPS's only remaining published figure is a $30 a month dash cam add-on. Cameras are the expensive half of a modern telematics deployment, and the one that needs a policy as well as a budget.
One caution on the camera figure specifically. Azuga's public site references SafetyCam pricing in more than one format, so the $41.99 is the clearest published number rather than a guaranteed bundle price.
Ask for camera hardware, the monthly service, the storage retention period, and whether AI event detection is inside the camera fee or priced above it, then compare the total against the figure here.
The four-year default term is the most consequential clause in Azuga's documents and it is worth reading twice. Where the Order is silent, the initial term runs four years, and renewal is for a period equal to the initial term, meaning the automatic renewal is itself another four years unless you act 60 days out.
Set that against the published alternatives in GPS fleet tracking: One Step GPS sells month-to-month by default, Quartix runs a minimum period from 12 months and then moves to a cancel-anytime monthly rolling agreement with one month's notice, and Verizon Connect's Reveal agreement renews in one-month periods. Azuga's published $25 is competitive against those; its default term is not comparable to any of them.
Hardware splits into two categories with sharply different consequences, and the pricing page does not distinguish them. Title to purchased devices transfers to you at delivery, which is clean.
Title to leased devices remains with Azuga throughout the Order term, and leased devices not returned within 15 days after termination are charged at replacement cost, stated as $70 to $499 depending on device type. On 50 leased units at the top of that range, a missed return window is a $24,950 exposure.
Fifteen days is also short: Fleet Complete gives seven days, One Step GPS and Spireon each give 30, and Teletrac Navman gives 45. Establish in writing which kind of device you are getting before the first one ships.
Put the whole thing in one figure before you compare Azuga with anything. For 50 vehicles on SafeFleet with cameras on half the fleet, you are looking at 50 at $30 plus 25 at $41.99, which is $2,549.75 a month and $122,388 across a four-year term, plus whatever the device arrangement adds.
That is the number to carry into a comparison, and it is why a total cost of ownership worksheet beats a per-vehicle rate every time in this category.

Pricing source: official pricing page, verified 2026-09-30. Azuga publishes a full rate card on its own pricing page: "BasicFleet: $25 Per Vehicle Per Month", "SafeFleet: $30 Per Vehicle Per Month" and "CompleteFleet: $35 Per Vehicle Per Month". No quote is required to see the tier prices.
What the Azuga tiers add
Negotiate the term before you negotiate the rate, because the term is worth more. The licence agreement's four-year default applies only where the Order does not set out an initial term, which means the Order can set a shorter one.
Ask for 12 or 24 months explicitly, ask for renewal in one-year rather than term-length periods, and get both written on the Order rather than agreed on a call.
Pick the tier on the capability you will configure in the first quarter. If API access, fuel-card linking or driver messaging is in your implementation plan, SafeFleet is your entry rate and BasicFleet is a quote you will not use.
If none of them is, BasicFleet at $25 is a genuinely competitive published rate and the two steps above it are optional.
Decide the camera question as a policy before a purchase. SafetyCam is an add-on, so filming a cab is a decision someone signs for at $41.99 per vehicle per month.
Agree what triggers an upload, who reviews footage, how long it is kept and whether events feed coaching or discipline, then tell drivers before the first camera is fitted. A harsh event coaching log and a driver scorecard template are the difference between a safety programme and surveillance nobody trusts.
Establish the device arrangement in writing, naming purchased or leased. The replacement-cost schedule of $70 to $499 and the 15-day return window only bite on leased units, so this is a single question with a large number behind it.
Ask who ships replacements for failures, who pays for a reinstallation when a vehicle is replaced mid-term, and what the return process looks like at the end of four years.
Diary the 60-day notice the week you sign and review it annually. An automatic renewal for a period equal to a four-year initial term is the harshest renewal mechanic on this site, and the only defence is administrative.
A contract renewal tracker holding the term length, the notice deadline and the renewal length per vendor removes the risk for good. If Azuga is still competing against a reseller-sold platform, Geotab against Azuga is the version of that decision where the contract differences matter most.

What to confirm before signing with Azuga
Set the initial term on the Order
The licence agreement's four-year default applies only where the Order is silent, so write the term you want into the Order. Four years of BasicFleet is $1,200 per vehicle, which is a different purchase from a $25 monthly subscription.
Fix the renewal length as well as the notice
Renewal is for a period equal to the initial term, so a four-year deal renews for four more unless you give 60 days' notice. Ask for one-year renewals and get the notice deadline stated as a date, not as a period.
Price the 30-second refresh honestly
CompleteFleet's stated addition over SafeFleet is 30-second rather than one-minute updates, at $5 per vehicle per month. That is $6,000 a year across 100 vehicles, so decide whether anyone dispatches against live positions before paying for it.
Confirm whether devices are purchased or leased
Purchased device title transfers at delivery; leased device title stays with Azuga. Leased units not returned within 15 days of termination are billed at replacement cost of $70 to $499 each, which on a 50-vehicle fleet is a five-figure exposure.
Get one camera number, not three
SafetyCam is listed at $41.99 a month but camera pricing appears in more than one format on the public site. Ask for hardware, monthly service, storage retention and AI event detection as one stated total per vehicle.
Check the ELD registration before relying on it
Some partner-branded products built on Geotab hardware have been self-revoked by their partners, Azuga included. If hours-of-service compliance is why you are buying, confirm the current FMCSA listing and which identifier your contract sits under.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions buyers usually ask once the category, software, or rollout details start getting more specific.
How much does Azuga cost?
Azuga publishes its rates: BasicFleet at $25 per vehicle per month, SafeFleet at $30 and CompleteFleet at $35, verified on its own pricing page on 30 September 2026. No quote is needed to see them. SafetyCam, the AI camera add-on, is listed at $41.99 a month on top of any tier.
How long is an Azuga contract?
Longer than the monthly rate suggests. Azuga's licence agreement states that where the Order does not set out an initial term, the initial term is four years, and each Order renews automatically for a period equal to that term unless you give at least 60 days' notice of non-renewal. On BasicFleet, four years is $1,200 per vehicle.
What is the difference between Azuga's tiers?
SafeFleet adds one-minute location updates, safety tools, messaging, API integration, fuel-card links and deeper diagnostics over BasicFleet. CompleteFleet's stated addition over SafeFleet is 30-second updates. That refresh interval costs $5 per vehicle per month, or $6,000 a year across 100 vehicles.
How much does Azuga SafetyCam cost?
The public site lists SafetyCam at $41.99 a month as an AI add-on available on any tier, but it references camera pricing in more than one format, so confirm the final bundle figure directly. Note the shape of it: the camera costs more per vehicle than the most expensive tracking tier.
Who owns the Azuga hardware?
It depends which kind you have, and the difference is expensive. Title to purchased devices transfers to you at delivery. Title to leased devices stays with Azuga throughout the term, and leased devices not returned within 15 days after termination are charged at replacement cost, stated as $70 to $499 depending on device type.
Does Azuga offer a free trial?
Evaluation is demo-led, and self-serve trial terms are not clearly published on the pricing pages we reviewed. Given the four-year default term, ask for a written pilot with a defined exit before signing anything, rather than relying on a trial that may not exist.
Is Azuga cheaper than Samsara?
You can at least check, which is more than Samsara allows. Samsara publishes no rate at all and routes buyers through a fleet-size questionnaire; Azuga publishes three. Our Samsara and Azuga comparison weighs the published ladder against the quote process.
Is Azuga a registered ELD?
Check the current FMCSA list before relying on it, because the position has moved. Several partner-branded products built on Geotab hardware have been self-revoked by those partners, Azuga among them. A self-revocation is a voluntary withdrawal by the reseller rather than an FMCSA finding, and it still affects what you can rely on.
Do Azuga cameras record, and do they record sound?
Cameras are an add-on rather than a default: SafetyCam is a separately priced AI dash cam at $41.99 a month, so a vehicle without it has no camera. Whether a fitted camera captures audio or films the cab depends on the device and the settings your employer chose. Ask for the written recording policy.
Is there a cheaper published alternative?
Yes. One Step GPS publishes $13.95 per vehicle per month for tracking and $20.95 with ELD, month-to-month with no contract, and Quartix publishes $14.00 and $15.00 with installation included. Both were verified 30 September 2026, and neither carries a four-year default term.
