Roles are required to use the features and functionality available in MyAdmin. For detailed information about the required roles, refer to MyAdmin Roles.
It is your responsibility to keep any user identification or passwords issued to you in order to access our website or other services (“Login Credentials”) safe and secure and not to disclose them to any other person, unless you want to give such a person the authority to act on your behalf. You are solely responsible for any actions taken using your Login Credentials. You must only provide your Login Credentials when logging into our website or through other automated means. For security reasons, our service representatives will never ask you for your password, and you must not disclose Login Credentials to anyone asking for it. When speaking with our representatives, they will follow other verification procedures to validate your identity.
For the safety, security, and integrity of your data, users who have not logged in to MyAdmin for more than 90 days are considered inactive and will have their accounts disabled.
To protect against unauthorized activity, accounts with 21 consecutive failed login attempts within a short period of time will be locked. After 10 minutes, you may attempt to log in again or change your password. Contact us to manually unlock your account.
If you believe the security of your Login Credentials has been compromised, or you suspect unauthorized use, you must notify us immediately. You will be responsible for all changes to your account, communications, use of services, orders, transactions and charges, which are made using your Login Credentials, whether by you or anyone else, until you notify us.
Once you notify us, we will suspend your account and will make arrangements for continued use of our platform or services.

We recommend that you use MyAdmin Authentication to access the databases of our mutual Customers. The benefits of using MyAdmin Authentication include:
To ensure that your employees can access databases with their MyAdmin login credentials, you must ensure that the database has Allow Reseller access enabled in MyGeotab. If the feature is not enabled, only the user who created the database can log in via their MyAdmin login credentials. To enable this feature in MyGeotab, follow the steps below:
It is important that you do not set Allow reseller access to On if it goes against the agreement you have with our mutual Customer.
For Customers who are supported by more than one Partner, a Majority Account is automatically selected for the following purposes:
For each MyGeotab database, the account with the most devices in the database is selected as a Majority Account.
✱ NOTES:
To request a specific Majority Account for a particular MyGeotab database, contact the Geotab Support. Once complete, the Majority Account calculation will not replace it.
The MyGeotab portal has an embedded Product Guide — located under Getting Started & Help > Additional Resources… > Product Guide in the main navigation menu.

! IMPORTANT: Be sure you have the required roles to use the device-related pages. To learn more, refer to the Roles section above.
The Device Admin page functions as a single point of access for all device administration-related tasks, including managing device information, changing Rate Plans, registering third-party devices, configuring the firmware channel, etc.
The Device Admin page does not display a list of devices by default. To view a list of all devices, click the Look up Devices button. To filter and view a list of specific devices, click the Options button and select devices in the Device Search Options menu. The Device Search Options menu includes the following filters:
✱ NOTE: The Database column in the table only displays the database name if the device has communicated in the past 24 hours.
Once the filters have been set, click the Look up Devices button. The page displays a table that includes the following columns, organized by Customer name in alphabetical order:
✱ NOTE: For information about the device activation policy, refer to Geotab Partner Policies.
✱ NOTE: The columns with an asterisk are only displayed when the Include Connect Data filter is selected.
The Register Third-Party Devices button allows you to register third-party telematics devices, including OEM embedded devices, and obtain a valid serial number — required to add a third-party device to a MyGeotab database. Billing for third-party devices begins after the device has been registered and added to a MyGeotab database. To register third-party devices, follow the steps below:
✱ NOTE: The Subscription Plan field is only displayed when a product code for OEM devices is entered in the Product Code field.
The Change Plan button allows you to switch devices between Rate Plans, or indicate the Rate Plan for a device is suspended or terminated. You have the option to mix and match Rate Plans for devices in a single Customer database (for example, some devices on ProPlus, some devices on Pro, and some devices on Base, etc.).
Geotab offers various Rate Plans at different price points and levels of functionality. Devices ship from Geotab in an activation-ready state. Once the device is installed and powered on, the device automatically activates on the carrier’s network, and the device is billed based on the Rate Plan selected during the checkout process. For more information about Rate Plans, refer to Rate Plan Feature Comparison and Geotab Partner Policies.
Geotab offers the following Rate Plans:
✱ NOTE: Devices on the Base Rate Plan only record GPS data. Downgrading to the Base Rate Plan disables the ability to record engine and accelerometer due to a change in firmware. Billing is automatically updated according to the Rate Plan.
! IMPORTANT: Moving a device to Suspend mode erases the device memory, and immediately puts the device into a suspended state — preventing the device from logging new data. It may take several hours or days to reactivate. A device in Suspend mode only connects to the server every 23 hours. If the device is out of cellular range, reconnection delays may be long and no data is transmitted during this time except for a heartbeat.
✱ NOTE: For devices in Suspend mode or Terminate mode (during the first 30 days), a monthly charge is applied to the account to keep the SIM active and maintain the database. After 30 days, devices in Terminate mode cannot be reactivated. The cost of reactivating a terminated device is $25 USD.
To change Rate Plans for devices, follow the steps below:
✱ NOTE: To reduce potential loss of tracking data, switch live devices between live Rate Plans, such as Base and Pro, to eliminate connectivity issues seen with Suspend mode.
✱ NOTE: Devices on the Base Rate Plan only record GPS data. Downgrading to the Base Rate Plan disables the ability to record engine and accelerometer due to a change in firmware. Billing is automatically updated according to the Rate Plan.
Terminated devices can be reactivated within 30 days of termination, and can only be terminated and reactivated once a month. After 30 days, devices cannot be reactivated. To reactivate a device, follow the steps below:
The devices will be reactivated, and the Partner will receive an invoice for the order. Swapping a SIM card will not reactivate the device, and the warranty period is not affected by reactivation.
Once a day, MyAdmin users that have enabled notifications will receive an email regarding the activations and Rate Plan changes for the day. For more information about email notifications, refer to Emails by MyAdmin.
The Export Table button allows you to download a report as a .csv file.
The Edit Devices button allows you to apply a Rate Plan code or assign the device(s) to a specific Customer.
To manage Rate Plan codes, follow the steps below:
To assign devices to Customers, follow the steps below:

Click the Active Tracking button and, in the popup window, select On or Off for User-enabled Active Tracking, then click the OK button.
The Beta Firmware Program aims to provide a simple and effective method for Customers to update to the latest beta firmware versions and test new firmware features and fixes. Through this program, you can subscribe devices to specific channels to test upcoming features and Beta functionality. The devices automatically update to the latest stable release version of the firmware on the subscribed channel, and each beta firmware cycle runs for approximately two months.
The following firmware channels are available:
To configure the firmware channel, follow the steps below:

The Device Contract Request History page provides information about changes to a device contract, including the original activation details of the unit upon install.
By default, shipped devices are activation-ready. The activation-ready state means that the device is prepared to send live data at the time of the installation — designed to improve your administration of live devices during deployment. You will not need to perform a second step to activate a device. Simply order, receive, and install devices. In addition, the device plan is also active from a billing perspective as soon as the data is sent.

The Extended Services Center page functions as a single point of access for all Extendable Services-related activities, and displays a list of devices that share GO device data between multiple databases. Extendable Services is a secure data-sharing technology that allows users to connect and collaborate with trusted business partners by extending their telematics data to other MyGeotab users. With Extendable Services, users can extend safety and performance-driven data to insurance providers to save on coverage, or engine diagnostic data with maintenance providers to save on repairs.
Extendable Services starts with a transaction between two MyGeotab users: a user from the Primary Database who makes a request to extend telematics services to a user from a Target Database who accepts or rejects the request based on the needs of their business.

Sales — A return of an unused, unopened product (GO device, IOX, Beta hardware, Geotab-offered third-party device or harness) purchased by the Partner, where the Partner wishes to return the product to Geotab for credit.
✱ NOTE: All approved Sales Returns are subject to 20% restocking fee. Saleable condition is defined as return merchandise that is in its original condition, and can be readily sold. Geotab reserves the right to determine if an item is saleable. For example, if the original purchase price is $100, then a credit of $80 is applied to the Partner’s account with a $20 restocking fee.
Warranty — A return in which the product fails to perform during the warranty period in accordance with written specifications, when used in accordance with written instruction. Warranty Returns include beta devices, but exclude test and demonstration devices.
