Fi Mini GPS Dog Tracker, Collar Attachment, Membership Required

$99 Owner rating 4.2 out of 5 · 3 ratings

What this costs to keep using: About $15.75 a month. The hardware reports nothing without a Fi membership, which is sold separately. On Fi's prepaid tiers a year works out at roughly $15.75 a month, and that is the number to budget rather than the sticker price. Fi — Membership billing (help centre)

A tracker only reports where the collar is, so what it attaches to is part of the purchase.

Is the Fi Mini GPS Tracker right for your dog?

Who it’s for
A smaller dog who cannot carry a full smart collar — the same network and alerts in a clip-on the size of a large tag.
Who should skip it
You want the longest track record. This is a newer product with a thin review base so far. Rated 4.2 stars on only a handful of ratings so far, under our usual 4.3 bar.

The verdict

Fi's answer to the main objection to their collar: some dogs should not be carrying a full smart collar, and many owners have a collar they like already. The Mini clips onto it, keeps the same nationwide live tracking, safe zones and escape alerts, and adds steps, active minutes and rest logging. Fi state up to six weeks of battery and an IP68 waterproof build, and Fi now sells it as hardware only, with the membership required and bought separately. The honest caveat is evidence: the Amazon review base is small and the rating is middling so far, so this is a newer product without the track record of the flagship collar. Budget for the plan from day one, and check coverage in the areas where you actually walk before committing.

Drawbacks

  • Small review base and a middling rating so far
  • Clip-on hardware can be lost where a collar cannot

Plan: required — $189 a year or $339 for two. Fi's billing page says an active membership is required to activate the tracker and is billed separately from the hardware; the same prices cover Fi Mini and Series 3+, and first terms carry a six-month minimum. A six-month plan is $99. Fi lists the Mini at $99 on its own store, the same price as the listing we link, which includes no membership. Fi — Membership billing (help centre) (read 2026-09-26).
