Profone Tracker API Console



About

Profone GSM tracker has more cell towers in database than anyone else. You can use this tool to get a rough idea of how many cell towers are in database for a certain MCC (a country could have more than 1 MCC). Meanwhie, I update the database weekly, so the result could vary even daily.

Profone GSM tracker alone receives about some 18,000 visitors monthly from over 160 countries and regions, with a majority of them are from Indonesia, Pakistan, USA, India and Thailand. Now many companies, app developers, researchers use this API service. In the meantime, police departments from a few countries are using this service constantly.

It's free for all personal and research uses, in fact. However due to the ristrictions on the usage of the server resources (CPU, memory, bandwidth) placed by my hosting provider and given the cost of collecting data, I am unable to offer free services for commercial uses.



Plans and Pricing


There are two plans avaiable at the moment, prepaid and monthly subscription. The prepaid plan works like this, you register and top up your account, and you get 100 points for each and every one US dollar. One point equals one API query. Beside, you get 500 points for test when you sign up whatever plan you select. The details of monthly plans can be obtained upon request.

* A full refund will be made if you are not satisfied within the first 7 days.
* API queries subjects to change without further notice,please refer to this page for up-to-date info.
