MiWay Tracker Fitment Certificate: The Paper Behind the Cover
On a MiWay policy the fitment certificate is the proof the approved tracker your schedule requires is installed. As a self-service insurer, MiWay expects you to lodge it yourself through the app or call centre, against your policy - so knowing exactly what to file matters.
This guide takes the MiWay angle: what a valid certificate contains, how self-service intake works, the inception window, and how the document survives a reissue or a car change.

On a self-service insurer you, not a broker, complete the compliance step. The certificate proves the named tracker is fitted to the insured car by an accredited installer on a dated record, and you are the one who lodges it.
Skip the filing and the schedule's security condition sits unproven until you act - which a theft claim will expose.
Issued by the installer
The tracker provider's fitment centre issues the certificate at installation, not MiWay. The main providers use a broadly common form.
Take it at the bay before you leave; MiWay cannot create one, and retrieving it later is an avoidable task you carry.
What it must contain
A valid certificate names the policyholder, the car by registration and VIN, the device by serial number, the install date and the installer's accreditation reference.
Invoices and screenshots are supporting paper only; the issued certificate is what MiWay relies on.
Self-service intake
Lodge the certificate yourself through the MiWay app or call centre against the policy. That self-service filing is what makes the security condition demonstrably met.
Diarise the short window after inception to install and file; miss it and theft cover is uncertain until you complete it.
Reissues and car changes
A lost certificate is reissued from the provider's records, usually within a working day, at full weight; file the reissue yourself and confirm the record.
A new car generates a new certificate for its registration and VIN, even with the device moved across; update both on your policy.
