How many launches to Geostationary Orbit are tracked?

32 launches to Geostationary Orbit (GEO) are tracked on RocketMapper, with a 88% success rate.

Geostationary Orbit (GEO) Launches

Geostationary Orbit (GEO) is a circular orbit 35,786 km above the equator where satellites match Earth's rotation, appearing fixed in the sky. Direct-to-GEO launches bypass the usual GTO transfer, requiring more capable vehicles or upper stages.
