A device for preventing an eCall system backup battery for a vehicle from discharging is provided. The device includes a GPS configured to provide current position information of the vehicle in which an eCall system is mounted. A sales area information storage is configured to form and store the GPS information on all sales areas as a sales area information database. A microcomputer is configured to determine whether the vehicle is located within a sales area which is a final destination by using the information acquired from the GPS module and the sales area information storage and to control whether the backup battery operates depending on the determination result. A power supply manager is configured to select and manage any one of a main battery and the backup battery as supply power of the eCall system by a control of the microcomputer.
