SmartLabel: the disposable shipment tracking label. Peel, stick, and ship.

Track every shipment — not a sample. SmartLabel is a single-use, peel-and-stick tracking label thinner than a business card. Tear it to activate, stick it to the box or pallet, and watch the whole journey on a live map.

No charging, no SIM, no subscription — one low unit cost per label with the tracking service included. It reports over a terrestrial network of 100M+ Bluetooth gateways, and once activated it can't be switched off by whoever has your freight.

How it works

Shipment tracking in three moves. No hardware to install, ever.

SmartLabel is a Bluetooth shipment tracker with no cellular radio to feed. It broadcasts passively, and the 100M+ phones and connected devices it passes — in warehouses, trucks, ports, and depots — relay its position to the GPX platform automatically.

Tear. Stick. Track.

Standout features

Built for high-volume, one-way freight. Low-cost enough to put on everything.

01

Tear-and-track simplicity

Tear or cut the black tab and it's live. No app pairing, no buttons, no configuration — anyone on the dock can deploy it.

02

Ultra-thin form factor

0.016 in (0.4 mm) at its thinnest and 2.6 × 2.2 in (65 × 56 mm) — a peel and stick GPS-alternative that hides discreetly inside or outside any package.

03

Global network visibility

Tracks over a terrestrial network of 100M+ Bluetooth gateways — phones and connected devices already along every freight lane.

04

Scalable high-volume tracking

Disposable-grade unit cost makes it viable to label every shipment — 100% of the pool tracked instead of a sampled few.

05

Up to 60-day battery

Covers long-haul ocean freight, cross-border trucking, and multi-week journeys — 4–5 weeks is the typical trip envelope.

06

Eco-friendly & recyclable

Zinc-manganese battery and recyclable construction — a sustainable single-use shipment tracker that reduces e-waste.

07

No subscription required

One price per label with the tracking service included for the life of the battery. No recurring fees, no contracts per device.

08

Waterproof thermal material

Durable waterproof thermal-paper construction shrugs off rain at the dock, warehouse humidity, and rough handling.

Is SmartLabel the right device?

Perfect for one-way shipments. For everything else, we've got you.

SmartLabel is built for high-volume freight that ships and stays — boxes, pallets, and loads headed to a customer. If your situation looks different, a sibling device fits better; they all report into the same GPX platform.

Questions & answers

The disposable shipment tracker, answered.

How does a disposable Bluetooth tracker provide global visibility?

SmartLabel broadcasts over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to a terrestrial network of 100M+ gateways — phones and connected devices already out in the field. Every time your shipment passes one, its position is relayed to your GPX dashboard — no dedicated cellular connection, no SIM, no gateways of your own to install.

Does the SmartLabel require a monthly subscription?

No. Unlike traditional GPS trackers that carry recurring cellular data plans, SmartLabel is one price per label with the tracking service included for the full life of its battery — up to 60 days. No monthly fees, no per-device contracts.

How do I activate the SmartLabel for my shipment?

Tear or cut the black tab on the side of the sticker to power it on, peel the adhesive backing, and stick it to your cargo — deployed in under ten seconds. Once activated it cannot be powered off, so it keeps reporting even if the shipment ends up in the wrong hands.

How accurate is location tracking on a crowdsourced Bluetooth network?

Accuracy depends on the density of nearby gateways — typically within 20 to 100 feet. That pinpoints the exact warehouse, distribution center, or transit hub your package is sitting in, which is what shipment visibility and recovery actually require. Real-time GPS trackers cover the cases that need turn-by-turn precision.

Is a tracking sticker safe for air freight and international shipping?

Yes. SmartLabel is FCC certified and uses low-power BLE that is safe for air travel. Its ultra-thin, non-hazardous design can be placed on or inside packages without violating international airline safety regulations.

How long does the battery last during long-haul transit?

Up to 60 days of continuous operation, with 4–5 weeks as the typical trip envelope — enough for long-haul ocean freight, cross-border trucking, and complex multi-week supply chain journeys. It broadcasts constantly for its entire life.

Is the SmartLabel waterproof for harsh shipping environments?

Yes. It's constructed from durable, waterproof thermal paper built for the rigors of global shipping — rain during loading, warehouse humidity, and rough handling — across a 32 °F to 113 °F operating range.

Can the SmartLabel track temperature or humidity?

SmartLabel is deliberately minimalist: location visibility at high volume with peel-and-stick simplicity. For shipments where conditions matter — temperature, humidity — pair the trip with AssetTemp, GPX's condition-monitoring sensor, and get alerts the moment a threshold is crossed.
