The only thing worse than losing your car is not knowing when it's happening.

TowMate Assist connects drivers to real-time custody alerts—so instead of finding your car missing, you get a head start to stop the tow and save up to 50% in impound costs.

Every Driver's Worst Moment — Finally Preventable.

Thousands of drivers wake up or walk outside to find their car gone—with no idea who to call or where to go. By the time they track it down, storage and release fees have already doubled.

TowMate Assist changes that. Our system connects directly with participating TowMate Cloud operators and municipalities to detect towing activity in real time. The moment your vehicle is flagged, you get notified—giving you the window to act, contact the operator, and often cut your bill in half.

How It Works

1️⃣
Register Your Vehicle
Add your license plate and VIN securely to TowMate Assist. Your details are stored in the TowMate Cloud and monitored 24/7 across participating yards and operators.
2️⃣
Get Real-Time Alerts
When a connected operator starts a tow or impound process on your vehicle, you receive an instant SMS and email notification. No waiting, no guessing.
3️⃣
Use the Drop-Fee Window
Many operators in our network offer a drop fee—a reduced rate if you meet them before your vehicle is processed at the yard. On average, that means paying about 50% less than a full impound charge.
4️⃣
Premium Assistance (Premium Plan)
With our premium plan, our team connects you directly to the operator in real time—no phone tag, no delays. That hands-on coordination makes it far more likely you'll catch the tow in time to claim the drop-fee discount.
