Independent guide
By Linus Palmqvist, Head of Operations Reviewed by Simon Nilsson Last reviewed Verisure is the biggest home alarm company in Spain, and Spain is its largest market worldwide. It publishes its contract terms in English, which most companies here do not. The thing to understand before signing is that you are agreeing to two payments, not one.
The most capable system of the six, and the one whose contract needs the closest reading.
The facts worth knowing before you talk to them, and the ones you can check yourself.
Around 6.2 million customers globally at the end of 2025.
Verisure publishes no tariff. Pricing comes from a home visit, so get it in writing.
Registered for running an alarm receiving centre, not renting space in one.
Two independent connections with jamming detection. Detection, not prevention.
The service and the equipment are billed apart, and the equipment can run longer.
Same company. The rebrand runs through 2026, so both names appear on paperwork.
The name that should appear on your contract. Registered as DGP 2737.
Go to Verisure yourself, or let us handle the Spanish side. Both work.
Free, and you are not committed to Verisure.
The system is well regarded. These three are about the paperwork, which is where the surprises sit.
The service runs two years. The equipment is a separate plan and can run longer. Ask for both lengths side by side.
Ending the monitoring does not clear the equipment plan. Ask for the figure at month 25, once the service minimum has passed.
Ownership passes only after the service ends and the installation is paid off. Ask what happens to the kit if you leave sooner.
Verisure goes further in English than most of this market. The general terms exist as an English document, which is unusual here, and the app runs in English.
Published in English as well as Spanish, so you can read what you are agreeing to.
No company in this market promises an English-speaking operator when an alarm goes off. Plan on that conversation being in Spanish.
Sales visits, billing questions and cancellations run in Spanish. That is the part we do with you.
Worth reading a few yourself rather than going on the number alone.
72,962 reviews. 77% five star, 8% one star. Checked 25 July 2026.
The praise goes to the installers and the speed of response. The complaints cluster around billing and cancelling, and around the equipment plan continuing after the service ends.
Six companies dominate monitored home alarms in Spain, listed alphabetically. The full table is on the comparison page.

Send it over. We will read it in English and tell you what it commits you to. Then we will compare it against the rest of the market.
Compare your options in EnglishWe earn a commission if you set up an alarm through us. It does not change what is on this page. We cannot arrange every company we write about. The comparison is ordered alphabetically, not by what we earn. If a company we cannot arrange suits you better, we will say so.

Head of Operations at Settlewell
Linus moved from Sweden to Málaga in 2021 and set his own home up here, so most of this he has already done the hard way once. Before Settlewell he spent years at Workwide, the cross-border recruiter that has helped over 10,000 people into jobs abroad, latterly as its Head of Recruitment and Operations. He speaks Spanish, lives in Málaga with his partner, and spends his days on the phone to Spanish providers.
Company identity and registration come from the national register of security companies. The rules on installation, verification and police notification come from Spanish law. Contract points come from Verisure published general conditions, and review figures are a dated snapshot from one named platform.
