There are some trackers available without subscription, but because they all require some kind of network connection most of these devices use a SIM card, so you would still require a form of subscription in order for them to operate.

Some models you may wish to consider include the Amacam AM-T22 and the Streetwize GPS, both of which do not require a subscription but do require a SIM card. If you have an Apple phone you do also have the option of using an AirTag, which uses nearby Apple devices for location.
