Online shopping has become an integral part of our daily lives and each year Billions of parcels are shipped across the globe. As we continue to rely more heavily on e-commerce, it’s not uncommon to experience hiccups in the delivery process. Whether it’s a delayed shipment, a missing package, or just a desire for real-time updates on your order’s whereabouts, knowing how to track an order and get timely updates can make all the difference. In this article, we’ll explore the various ways you can keep tabs on your packages and ensure a smooth and stress-free delivery experience.
There are two ways to track your order. The first is to go to the e-commerce platform and check for the status of your order from time to time. Or you can use your parcel’s tracking number on a package tracking website that can locate the order for you and give you updates on the delivery via push notifications or email.
Of course, the second method is best, as it tracks the order for you and notifies you of every step of the package till it reaches you. Here are some guides to track a package using Ordertracker’s free parcel tracking solution, providing live tracking information for parcels and letters.
Requirements To Track a parcel
There’s only one requirement; you must have the tracking ID of the parcel you want to track.
The tracking ID number or tracking number of your order is the unique code assigned to each package, the code with the information it contains allows you to track the order’s status. It is usually a combination of numbers and letters. You can usually find the tracking number in the order details of the website where you purchased your product from, or in your inbox.
