Carrier Tracking

Get detailed tracking information about orders sent via certified/registered mail or express via USPS.

Whenever you send an order (such as a letter or check) with additional services like Certified Mail, PostGrid assigns a tracking number to it. This is visible on the dashboard under ‘Raw Data’ in the trackingNumber field. Once the trackingNumber is assigned, PostGrid provides updates from the carrier about the order's detailed tracking status. We update this tracking information hourly, allowing you to determine the exact delivery status of the order, as reported by the carrier.

PostGrid will automatically display the latest carrier tracking status on the order details page. The tracking status will continue to change in the third part or section 3.

Here are the tracking values that will be displayed:
