What Is A Third Party Parcel Tracking Tool

A third party parcel tracking tool is also often known as a third party parcel tracking website, parcel tracking platform, parcel tracker, parcel tracking app and so on. This kind of tool usually provides people with shipment tracking info from various couriers all in one place. Trackingmore is a typical example of this kind.

Many people would simply take a third party package tracking site as a counterpart of parcel tracking services from courier official website, which I really doubted as they have many differences between each other. To explore this, I think there is a need for you to know typical services a third party parcel tracking tool provides.

Trackingmore is an excellent all in one package tracking tool, so what kind of service it provides?

One: Multi-carrier Shipping Tracking Services
Trackingmore supports parcel tracking of international 477 couriers, including major carriers like USPS, UPS, China Post, DHL, FedEx, China EMS, S.F. International and etc. It provides real-time tracking info for 80,000 site visitors per day and this number is increasing.

Tracking data are all analyzed and divided into seven groups which we now call package tracking statuses: "Not Found", "In Transit", "Exception", "Out for Delivery", "Expired", "Failed Attempt" and "Delivered".

Two: Multi-carrier Shipping Tracking APIs
Trackingmore provides e-commerce developers with 475 courier tracking APIs so that they can retrieve multiple shipments tracking info effectively. The API it provides is very stable, fast and accurate.

Newly registered user can test 500 trackings within the first month for free. Besides, for those who own an e-commerce website and added an all site link to Trackingmore can enjoy up to 200 trackings for free per day. By this way, they can save up to approximately $75 per month. Click Free API Request to see how it works.

Three: Carrier Auto Detect
Every courier has its own rules to define a tracking number, and this rule is especially distinct in terms of postal services. Trackingmore has an brilliant system that stores all those tracking number rules from couriers we supported.

So if a person inputs a tracking number in a rectangle box at Trackingmore homepage, it will be auto matched with one or multiple carriers. And this is also a good way to know which courier carries your shipment.

Four: Tracking Widget
Trackingmore provides free tracking widget for all people who want to embed it to their own e-commerce sites and track packages. Users can define color, courier, style and formats to meet their websites theme. A typical tracking widget looks like below example. You can also click Tracking Widget to define one for your own shop.
Five: Analytics
Want to know which courier has the best shipping performance and which destination country your shipments are sent to? You can login to your Trackingmore account and check all in one panel.

Besides, it provides shipping time calculator for your reference based on its huge data in the system.

Six: Email Notifications
Once there is an delivery status update, system can auto send emails to notify your customers so that you can easily please them and generate more sales.

Seven: Parcel Tracking Plugins
Own an online shop on Magento, Shopify, eBay, AliExpress, Wish, CS-Cart, BigCommerce, PrestaShop, WooCommerce, ShipStation and want to track orders from various logistics providers? Then you really need to try Trackingmore parcel tracking plugins.

A parcel tracking plugin is designated for merchants to auto track orders and allow them enjoying more time focusing on its businesses.

Conclusion
A third party parcel tracking tool is a professional parcel tracker that enables people to track packages from multiple carriers all in one place.

Items Shipped Via La Poste But Were Broken Into Pieces

Today one of my friends claimed that an item she bought online was broken into pieces after she opened the packaging box. And she even showed me pictures as you can see below.



And then she said seller just gave her a tracking number and told her it was shipped via La Poste and could be tracked on Trackingmore. So what would you do if you were me, she asked.

Well, I should simply say you can try to contact both seller and La Poste. But first, please keep the photograph of the damage, which would be helpful in the subsequent claim for damage.

HOwever, as neither of us know any French, so we try to contact seller. Fortunately, seller promised to refund the money but my friend should return items and pay the shipping fee.

Thinking about all these, we began to believe maybe contacting La Poste would be a nicer way to deal with this matter as the shipping fee would cause hugely and time is also an factor.

So is there any way to contact La Poste for people who do not understand French? Would this be possible done by negotiating with La Poste? Would it be useful to provide La Poste tracking info? https://www.trackingmore.com/laposte-tracking.html?number=CC749604496FR

And although there is a translation tool which enables them to translate it into other target languages, it seems not to work so well sometimes either as you will see odd translations which make you feel more confused.

At first, I would explain every China Post tracking info in detail to every person who contacted me and do not understand Chinese but still want to figure out it in English. But soon I realized that this is not a long term business to do as it will occupy lots of my time in doing the same thing repeatedly. Therefore, I start thinking if there is any good way to help people try to understand tracking info from China post by themselves.

After a short period time thinking, an idea did come into my mind. And that is to make a list of all typical China post tracking info in both Chinese and English for people to refer to. By this way, every person can grasp each China Post tracking info terms by themselves.

So, in the past few days, I have collected and analyzed 1,000 China Post international packages tracking info obtained from TrackingMore data system. Below example shows typical China post tracking info that would appear when tracking China post parcels.
