Tracking

Real-time delivery tracking, for you and for your recipients

Every delivery has its status, its map and the driver’s ETA, updated live in your dashboard. Your recipients get a tracking link by text or email and watch the driver approach.

What you see

What your recipients see, and what you see

Your recipients follow the driver

Their link shows a half-hour arrival window, the number of destinations before theirs and, as the driver gets close, their live position. They can leave an instruction for the driver.

They hear from us at the right moments

On the day or the evening before, when the driver heads their way, and if the time moves by more than 30 minutes: by email, and by text for the messages you switch on.

You follow everything live

The status, map and ETA of every delivery update in your dashboard. For your own systems, signed webhooks send every change of status.

Frequently asked questions

Tracking and notifications

Do my recipients need to create an account?

No. They follow their delivery from the link they receive by text or email, in their browser, with no account and no app.

Can I change the wording of the texts?

Yes. In your dashboard’s settings, you switch on each message and rewrite it in English, French and Dutch, with the recipient’s name, the time or the tracking link. Every text sent is charged.

Can a recipient look up their parcel with a number?

No. Every recipient has their own tracking link, sent by text or email. If they can’t find it, it is in their texts or emails, including their spam or junk folder.

Can I receive the statuses in my own software?

Yes. Signed webhooks send your system every change of status of a delivery and of each of its destinations, and the API gives you every recipient’s tracking link.

Which language are my recipients told in?

Their own, when we know it. Otherwise we choose from the address: English in the United Kingdom and, in Belgium, Dutch in Flanders and French in Brussels and Wallonia.
