Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureIron Tracking adds a branded order tracking page to your store so customers can check shipment status without contacting support. Orders sync automatically and update as carriers report progress. You can send email notifications at key shipping stages, so buyers know when an order ships and when it is out for delivery. A built-in analytics view shows tracking page visits and delivery status across your orders.
A tracking number doesn't guarantee an order is moving. Customers don't complain because a shipment is late. They complain because they don't know what's happening. TrackGuard detects stalled shipments, identifies orders at risk of delay, and automatically updates customers before they ask, "Where is my order?" Reduce support tickets, refunds, disputes, and bad reviews caused by shipping delays.
