Laka bicycle insurance and bicycle detection specialist Fris Nederland are teaming up against bicycle theft. Their strategy combines Laka’s bicycle insurance with custom-designed track & trace technology from Fris Nederland.

Fris Nederland is introducing a three-year subscription to their track & trace system, which integrates with Laka’s collective bicycle insurance. According to both parties, this collaboration establishes a “closed ecosystem for safeguarding damaged or stolen bicycles. This partnership brings together the best of both worlds,” says Mink Kempen, Business Development Manager of Laka.

Fris and Laka present a comprehensive ‘peace-of-mind’ solution. Fris Nederland’s Smart Tracker utilizes the LoRa network for precise bicycle localization and recovery. This network is ideal for long-distance communication with minimal power consumption. Customers can now purchase the Smart Tracker on the Fris Nederland website and opt to include bicycle insurance with their order.“Choosing Laka, known for their unique insurance model, was a logical step to complete our peace-of-mind product,” says Peter van den Brink, director of Fris Nederland. “By integrating our track & trace system with Laka’s advanced API and flexible infrastructure, we can offer customers a complete experience.”

The Smart Tracker is now available for purchase through the Fris Nederland website.
