AssetWatch

Real-Time Protection for High-Value Assets

AssetWatch is Recipero’s dedicated solution for monitoring, tracing, and protecting mobile phones, laptops, and other portable technology at risk of fraud, theft, or unauthorised resale. Built for organisations that issue, finance, ship, or store large volumes of tech, AssetWatch alerts you the moment a device you own, lease, or manage appears in second-hand trade channels.

Whether you're a retailer, finance provider, insurer, or an organisation managing mobile assets, AssetWatch gives you the visibility and control you need to reduce the risk of devices going missing.

Why AssetWatch?

AssetWatch customers include top-tier mobile networks, logistics firms, retailers, public sector bodies and leasing providers. The platform routinely:

  • Prevents losses linked to early or unauthorised resale or theft

  • Detects fraud patterns

  • Enables asset recovery with actionable evidence

  • Provides a deterrent that delivers immediate return on investment

  • Reduces internal fraud by deterring employees or customers from misusing devices they do not own — especially when issued under contract or lease and aware they are being monitored

From retail shrinkage and warehouse stock loss to goods lost in transit (GLIT) and corporate device misuse — AssetWatch addresses common vulnerabilities across:

  • Retail and Distribution: Detect stock leakage and opportunistic theft in real time

  • Corporate Assets: Identify when employee-issued devices are sold or misused

  • Finance and Leasing: Monitor and recover devices subject to finance agreements

  • GLIT and Delivery Risk: Flag devices reported as lost but then resold

By monitoring serialised assets against the Recipero Crime Reduction Ecosystem, AssetWatch proactively detects unauthorised trade activity, flags suspect listings to sellers, and alerts your business when fraud occurs.

How It Works

  1. Submit Your Assets: Upload IMEIs or serial numbers of devices you own, lease, or insure.

  2. Real-Time Monitoring: AssetWatch monitors police, insurer, trade, and marketplace data for resale activity.

  3. Get Alerts: Receive automatic notifications when a match is found.

  4. Take Action: Use alert data to investigate, recover, or trigger internal policy responses.

Traders also receive a red-flag warning when they attempt to process a device under watch — discouraging resale and reducing the secondary market value of compromised assets.
