Introduction

If you recently placed an order with a Shopify store and are excited to receive it, it's understandable why you want to track it and see how soon it will arrive at your front door. The good news is that the order is easy to track if you try the following steps.

Contact Shopify Customer Support

One important thing to note is that you should wait a couple of business days after placing an order before trying to track it. Tracking is usually not immediately available. The system may need some time to update. Thanks to receiving a confirmation email or text message after placing an order with a Shopify store, it's usually easy to track your order and find out its current status. This is particularly important if you won't be home and asked someone to pick up the package and hold it for you. However, if it has been a couple of days and you still haven't received your order confirmation or are experiencing difficulties tracking your order, contact Shopify customer support. This can help you confirm your order went through. It will also give you an opportunity to request the tracking number or find out where your package is.

Make sure you have important information readily available, including your order number, what you ordered and when, and the tracking number for your order (if you have it). Pull up your order confirmation text message or email prior to contacting Shopify. This allows you to have all the information available right away, instead of searching for it while you're in the middle of the conversation.

Take notes about the conversation in case you need to reference them later.

Conclusion

It's typically easy to track a package when you place an order with a Shopify store. However, if you're experiencing issues with tracking, you can easily contact Shopify customer support for further assistance.

Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for Shopify Problems?

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Comcast in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What do I do if my Xfinity TV or internet is out? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
