    Netstar companion bundles make life simpler, safer and smarterNetstar, a trusted pioneer in vehicle tracking and stolen vehicle recovery since 1994, has launched new companion value-added services bundles, bringing South Africans even greater protection, convenience and lifestyle benefits in one seamless offering.

    With over two million subscribers and a proud track record of innovation, Netstar has once again raised the bar by reimagining everyday peace of mind.

    Three bundles, one powerful support system

    The new bundles – Companion Core, Companion Pro and Companion Lux – have been designed to meet different customer needs and budgets while ensuring value at every level:

    • Companion Core (R89/month): Essential safety and savings, including armed and medical emergency response, 24/7 roadside assist, windscreen chip repair, licence and fines assist, discount vouchers, and access to HeyNetstar personal assistant services.
    • Companion Pro (R109/month): Everything in Core plus added convenience – including smartphone screen repairs, home assistant services and 2-for-1 dining deals.
    • Companion Lux (R135/month): The ultimate protection and lifestyle package, featuring safe drive services, hijack assist, Heat & Eat meal deals, 2-for-1 coffee offers and the global personal assistant – on top of all Core and Pro benefits.

    “Netstar has always stood for protection, innovation and peace of mind. With our new companion bundles, we are extending that promise into every part of our customers’ daily lives – from safety to savings to lifestyle convenience,” said Grant Fraser, group MD of Netstar.
