How do I add tracking to Apple Wallet?

Streamline Your Shipping: Adding Order Tracking to Apple Wallet

Tired of juggling multiple tracking numbers and constantly checking shipping websites? Apple Wallet offers a seamless solution: built-in order tracking. This handy feature keeps you updated on your deliveries directly within the app, eliminating the need for endless website visits. Here’s how to take advantage of it:

The key to accessing this convenient feature lies within your order confirmation email. Instead of manually searching for tracking information, most major online retailers now incorporate a direct link to Apple Wallet. Look for buttons or phrases like “Add to Apple Wallet,” “Track Package in Apple Wallet,” or simply a prominent Apple Wallet logo near your tracking number.

Adding the Tracking Information:

1. Locate the link: After placing an order, carefully examine your order confirmation email. The link will typically be visually distinct, often featuring the Apple Wallet icon.

2. Click the link: Simply click the link that offers to add the order to Apple Wallet. This action initiates the process of linking your order’s tracking information to the app.

3. Verification (Optional): Some retailers might request a quick verification step before adding the tracking information. This could involve a simple confirmation click or a brief login.

4. Check your Wallet: Once successfully added, your order will appear within your Apple Wallet app. It’s usually found within the “Passes” section, often grouped with other cards and tickets.

What to Expect:

After adding the tracking information, you’ll receive automatic updates within Apple Wallet as your package progresses. These updates include key milestones like:

• Shipping confirmation: When your order has been shipped.
• Location updates: The current location of your package as it moves through the delivery process.
• Estimated delivery date: A projected arrival date.
• Delivery confirmation: Notification once your package has been delivered.

These updates are displayed directly within the order’s card in Wallet, so you can glance at your progress whenever you choose, without the hassle of multiple websites or separate tracking apps.

What if I didn’t see the link?

If your order confirmation email lacks the Apple Wallet integration, don’t fret. You can still manually add the tracking number, though it’s less convenient. However, this feature is rapidly becoming standard practice for major online retailers, so you’ll likely find this option available for most online purchases in the near future.

By utilizing Apple Wallet’s built-in order tracking, you can simplify your shopping experience and stay effortlessly informed about your deliveries. Say goodbye to the tedious task of manually tracking packages and hello to streamlined, convenient package management directly from your Apple Wallet.
