Tracking Your Shipments
CommerceShip provides unified tracking across all your carriers in a single dashboard. How tracking works After a shipping label is generated and the carrier scans the package, tracking events appear automatically in CommerceShip. Events are standardized across carriers so you see consistent status updates regardless of which carrier is handling the shipment. What you can track - Shipments created in CommerceShip - External tracking numbers imported from other systems - Orders synced from connected ecommerce platforms Tracking statuses Shipments move through stages like label created, in transit, out for delivery, and delivered. CommerceShip normalizes these statuses across carriers so you do not need to learn each carrier's terminology. Sales channel sync Tracking data is pushed back to your connected sales channels automatically. When a shipment is delivered, your ecommerce platform is updated without manual intervention.
IntegrationsConnecting Your Ecommerce Platform
CommerceShip integrates with ecommerce platforms to automatically sync orders, customers, and tracking data. Shopify CommerceShip has a dedicated Shopify app. Once installed, orders sync automatically from your Shopify store. When you ship an order in CommerceShip, tracking information is pushed back to Shopify and your customers are notified. Other platforms CommerceShip supports connections to additional ecommerce platforms, marketplaces, WMS, OMS, and ERP systems through our integrations module. CSV import If your platform is not directly supported, you can import orders via CSV. CommerceShip supports field mapping so you can match your CSV columns to the correct order fields.
