How to set up Shipping Notifications?

With Synctrack, you can automatically notify customers about their order status through email or SMS. These shipping notifications help reduce support requests and improve customer satisfaction by keeping buyers informed every step of the way.

What are shipping notifications?


Shipping notifications are automated messages sent to your customers when their order status changes — for example, when an order is shipped, out for delivery, delivered, delayed, or fails to deliver.
These updates:
Improve transparency
Reassure customers
Reduce “Where is my order?” inquiries
