Fi is offering 30 percent off several satellite-connected pet trackers through October 25 with the coupon code SCARY. The discounted lineup includes the Fi Ultra, which drops to $209.30 and combines LTE, GPS, and Starlink coverage while remaining waterproof for up to five days of use.

Expanded Detail

Fi’s promotion runs through October 25 and requires the checkout code SCARY. The Fi Ultra, reduced to $209.30, uses LTE, GPS, and Starlink satellite links to report a pet’s location and recent route, including areas without cellular service, and can issue sound or vibration cues. Its IP68 housing is designed to withstand saltwater, with battery life rated at up to five days depending on activity.

The device attaches to a collar or harness and needs a paid subscription; plans cover the U.S. but not satellite service in Alaska. In testing in rural South Carolina, location data was accurate, though updates every two to three minutes and faster battery drain in Lost Mode limited performance for quick or small dogs.

Context

Discounts on satellite-connected pet trackers could make location technology more accessible to owners who hike, travel, or live near cellular gaps, potentially improving recovery odds and peace of mind. At the same time, required subscriptions and limited coverage may constrain who benefits, while update intervals and battery life could affect real-world usefulness for fast or small pets. Adoption may therefore grow among dedicated owners without fully replacing simpler tags.
