Status

Caravel Track is not yet published in the Shopify App Store: it has no public reviews yet. Features listed here are the ones in the app's code today. In our test store, the order timeline shows Shopify sending its own "out for delivery" and "delivered" emails when those events were written by a test script to shipments created with customer notification on; the full path from a live carrier status to that email has not yet run. Emails through your own account, delivery analytics and connecting your own carrier credentials have so far been tested only with simulated data, not in a live store.

Caravel Track

Free

$0

Tracking page with Shopify statuses, 100 shipments per month

Unlimited

$4.99 / 30 days

All supported carriers, unlimited shipments and tracking pages, notifications, analytics, custom templates, re-check of your connected service up to hourly (every 4 hours by default; without one, it only re-reads Shopify's status). Fair use, notice only: from 10,000 notification emails a month (through your own email account) and from 20,000 new shipments a month

Prices in US dollars, billed by Shopify every 30 days once the app is published. The apps are not published yet. Shopify shows the amount in your currency; taxes may apply.

Total cost on our side = plan + what your tracking service (17TRACK or TrackingMore, if you use one) and your email delivery service (Postmark, Resend or your own SMTP server, for the notifications that need one) charge you. We charge nothing per lookup; the official carrier APIs need your own credentials and are subject to each carrier's terms.
