dev.maptrip.de is a subdomain of maptrip.de, the official site of infoware GmbH, a company registered in Germany (Amtsgericht Bonn, HRB 14141) since 1984 with MapTrip software launched in 2005. Our antivirus network flagged zero detections across 96 engines, and the domain carries no browser blocklist warnings. The company maintains verifiable business registration, a physical address in Bonn, active Google Play apps, GitHub repositories, and consistent contact information across multiple official channels. Web research found three positive mentions from independent sources (AltexSoft, Google Play Store, and the company's own quality-assurance page) and zero scam reports, complaints, or fraud allegations. The hosting IP shows moderate abuse reports (22 total, score 26/100) which is typical for shared infrastructure and does not indicate malicious activity by this domain. The site's content — SDK documentation, truck navigation features, emergency-services integrations — aligns with a legitimate B2B software provider.
Full dossier
Analysis complete

Page Content

The page displays a professional GPS navigation platform with login forms, subscription offers, and developer documentation. Content includes truck navigation, waste-management routing, emergency-services integrations (fire departments, police), and API/SDK resources. The site structure and messaging are consistent with the main maptrip.de domain, indicating this is a legitimate development or staging subdomain.

Infrastructure

Valid SSL certificate issued by Let's Encrypt with 33 days remaining. Hosting IP 78.46.152.46 shows moderate abuse history (26/100 score, 22 reports) typical of shared hosting providers. No malware, phishing, or suspicious code detected by our antivirus network or sandbox analysis. The domain does not redirect through homoglyphs or suspicious chains.

Domain History

dev.maptrip.de is a subdomain of maptrip.de, operated by infoware GmbH, a German company founded in 1984 with MapTrip software in active development since 2005.

The site is not indexed in global traffic rankings, consistent with a development or internal-use subdomain.

Business registration verified in Germany with active status.

Research summary
Narrative write-up from our AI analyst, grounded on the facts above

We searched scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, and general web sources for dev.maptrip.de, maptrip.de, and infoware GmbH and found zero scam reports or complaints. Instead, we found three independent positive mentions: AltexSoft blog cites MapTrip as a professional GPS tracking solution; Google Play Store lists an active MapTrip LKW Navigation app; and the company's quality-assurance page documents 18+ years of software maturity. Business registration in Germany (Amtsgericht Bonn, HRB 14141) was verified as active.

Still, stay alert

No major threat indicators — but a clean scan does not guarantee every page is safe, and phishing emails routinely spoof real domains.

  • Double-check the exact URL in your address bar

    Confirm you are actually on dev.maptrip.de and not a lookalike like d-ev.maptrip.de.com or an IDN homoglyph.

  • Use a password manager

    Password managers only auto-fill on the exact domain they were saved for — they refuse to fill lookalike domains, which is the single best phishing defence.

  • Discuss this site on the forum

    If you have first-hand experience with this site — good or bad — share it with the MalwareTips community.
