Advanced Shipment Tracking (Free)

Advanced Shipment Tracking (AST) for WooCommerce lets you add tracking information to orders and gives your customers an easy way to track them. AST helps WooCommerce shop owners manage and automate their order flow, reduce time spent on customer service and increase customer satisfaction.

Key Features

Add Tracking Information to Orders

Easily add tracking information to your orders. AST lets you add tracking from the WooCommerce orders list or from a single order, and it can mark the order as Completed at the same time.

Customize the Tracking Display in Order Emails

You can fully customize how tracking information appears in order emails and in your customers’ accounts. The customizer has a live preview, so you can choose the layout, show or hide tracking details, and edit the content, fonts and colors.

List of 1010+ Shipping Carriers

AST provides a list of 1010+ shipping carriers from around the world, each with a predefined tracking link. AST generates the tracking link sent to your customers automatically when you ship their orders. See the full shipping carriers reference.

Keep Your Tracking Links Up To Date

We maintain the carrier list for you. Sync the shipping carriers at any time to pick up new carriers and any changes to existing tracking links.

Can't Find Your Carrier?

If your carrier isn’t on the list, you can suggest it and we’ll add it. Adding your own custom carriers with your own tracking URLs is available in Advanced Shipment Tracking PRO.

WooCommerce REST API Support

AST adds a shipment tracking WooCommerce REST API endpoint, so you can update tracking information in your WooCommerce orders from any external system or shipping label service and automate your daily workflow.

Bulk Upload from CSV

If your shipper sends tracking information in files and you don’t want to add them to orders by hand, AST gives you a quick way to import tracking numbers in bulk from a CSV.

Custom Order Statuses

Improve your order management flow with custom order statuses. Enable Partially Shipped for orders you ship in separate packages at different times, or enable the Delivered status to mark orders as delivered. To have orders move to Delivered automatically, you also need TrackShip for tracking and delivery automation.
