How it sells itself

Relayship reads the dispatch emails your suppliers already send. Forward them to one address and we extract the tracking number, the carrier, and the order it belongs to, then fulfill the order on Shopify so your customer gets a shipping notification. It works whether the email is plain text, HTML, or a PDF shipping label. You don't need a supplier portal, sheet, or API.

ShipAlert watches every fulfilled order and flags a shipment as delayed when tracking stalls past your threshold: no carrier scan in 48h, or past the delivery date. You hear about at-risk orders before the customer does, so you fix them first. Optionally auto-email customers a tasteful "running late" note to cut "where is my order" tickets. One dashboard shows every shipment: in transit, delayed, delivered.

Key points
  • Reads tracking from plain text, HTML, and PDF shipping label attachments
  • Matches each email to a Shopify order by reference, address, or customer name
  • Review queue for uncertain matches, so you confirm before tracking posts
  • Flags delayed orders by time: no carrier scan in 48h or past delivery date
  • Emails you the moment a shipment stalls, before the customer asks
  • Auto-emails customers a tasteful 'running late' note to cut WISMO tickets
  • One dashboard for every shipment: in transit, delayed, and delivered
