Have you heard about the XpressKEY? It’s the latest handheld key from Supra that is now being issued at ARMLS Support Centers for new subscribers or those who want to switch. The intuitive design of this device embodies all the functionality of its predecessor, the ActiveKEY and more. The XpressKEY has a host of new features, including:
- A durable touch screen
- Ergonomic design
- A long-lasting battery that can be charged via a universal Micro USB
- The ability to change your PIN code
- A GPS locator embedded in the device that generates an End of Showing Report in SupraWEB
- The potential to utilize the Keybox Assistant to automatically assign listings to keyboxes via GPS signal
- A handy-dandy utility flashlight
Much like the ActiveKEY, the XpressKEY utilizes infrared technology to communicate with keyboxes. Unlike the old key, however, this new device will use 4G service to communicate with cellphone towers. This greatly increases the reliability of the key when it comes to downloading updates and uploading keybox data to the Supra network.

OK, all this and no where does it say how much it will cost us. That to me is an indication that you don’t want us to know till we come to trade in the old ones. Come on, be up front on the process and cost for obtaining this product. Very poor management of information to members!!

If you currently own an ActiveKEY, the process of swapping to the XpressKEY is completely free. There’s no conspiracy, we expect a slight increase for XpressKEY and ActiveKEY next year but we don’t know pricing yet for 2020.

They said immediately… “NO COST”
James Marcus
Hello, the comment you are replying is from February, but yes there is no cost to switch keys (normally there would be) – it is waived for this exchange. The pricing for 2020 is on https://armls.com/activekey.

Is this device less expensive than the Android app of $17/mo?
James Marcus
The current price is the same as the ActiveKEY right now, which is $220 (paid annually). eKEY is paid per month, so in other terms ActiveKEY/XpressKEY is $18 a month.

Where and How do I buy one? My association no longer offers the Xpresskey.
Nick
Great question! You can pick up an XpressKEY in any of our 5 support centers, provided you have joined one of the Associations in our MLS. You will only need to provide a government issued I.D. and a credit card for the annual billing.

Every year is the same BS… all they do is charge…charge. We need to get this fees down to zero… If we don’t fight back, they will continue to do whatever they feel like.

Hello, there has always been a charge for Supra Keys – it is an optional service. The upcoming ActiveKEY exchange is at no cost. Thank you, James.

Is there an access option that keeps my cell phone and location private? I prefer not to enable/participate in GPS tracking.
James Marcus
Hi, I would recommend using the XpressKEY if you do not want to involve your personal cell phone: https://armls.com/introducing-the-xpresskey.

Is there a device without GPS tracking? Can the GPS feature on xpressKEY be disabled?
James Marcus
Hello, GPS tracking is a feature of both keys as cellular devices needs some sort of tracking to operate: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone_tracking.
