ELD Hub vs GPS Tab

GPS Tab vs ELD Hub

Same PT-30 hardware. Simpler pricing. Real US-based phone support.

GPS Tab is a popular ELD provider that ships the PT-30 OBD-II device. So does ELD Hub. Where we differ: transparent $15/truck/month pricing, no contract, and a Delaware phone line answered by a human — 302-404-1177.

GPS Tab vs ELD Hub FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is ELD Hub FMCSA-registered like GPS Tab?

Yes. Both are on the official FMCSA ELD list. Both use the same PT-30 hardware. The difference is the app, pricing, and support model.

Can I keep my GPS Tab PT-30 and switch to ELD Hub?

In many cases yes. The PT-30 is provider-configurable — call 302-404-1177 with your device serial number and we'll check whether it can be re-registered to ELD Hub. If yes, you skip buying new hardware entirely.

How much does GPS Tab cost vs ELD Hub?

GPS Tab is quote-based. Publicly reported pricing lands around $20–30 per truck per month depending on features. ELD Hub is a flat $15/truck/mo with IFTA and DVIRs included. On a 5-truck fleet that's around $300–900/yr in savings.

Does GPS Tab include IFTA reporting?

IFTA is generally an add-on with GPS Tab. It's included in ELD Hub's $15/truck/mo base plan — no upsell.

How long does it take to switch?

About 30 minutes per truck if you're re-registering existing PT-30 hardware. Two days if new hardware ships. Your fleet dashboard, HOS, and IFTA go live the same day you finish pairing.

What does ELD Hub bundle that GPS Tab doesn't?

Fuel discounts (AtoB), invoice factoring, freight booking (RFP Freight), CDL driver hiring, and commercial insurance quotes — all through the ELD Hub network. GPS Tab is standalone ELD software.
