“Where is my shipment?” answered by the carrier itself

The most repeated question in any store. The customer proves the order is theirs (order number and the registered phone), Kauthar takes the tracking number from their order in your store and asks the carrier directly, and replies in their language: the status, last update, location and tracking link.

The problem and the solution

The problem

Your employee opens the carrier's dashboard twenty times a day

“Where is it?”, “It still hasn't arrived” — every reply means opening the store, then the carrier's site, then copying the status, and still the customer is given an arrival date nobody actually has.

The solution with Kauthar

Connect once, and get the real status every time

A “Shipping carriers” screen with a card per carrier (status, last 4 characters of the key, default, instant-update link), “Track a shipment” for any number, a rule for how Kauthar finds the tracking number, and the latest shipments with Excel. You can also add the tracking number by hand on the order page.

What you gain

What your business gets

  • The region's main carriers

    Bosta, Aramex, SMSA Express, J&T Express (Egypt and Saudi Arabia), DHL, Mylerz, Naqel, Saudi Post SPL and iMile, plus AfterShip and 17TRACK for any other carrier with your key.

  • Only after the customer is verified

    Order details are only given after proof of ownership (the order number with the registered phone or email, or the same WhatsApp number). Someone who types only a tracking number gets the general status with no order details.

  • No guessing the arrival date

    Kauthar mentions an arrival date only if the carrier itself sent one; otherwise she gives just the status, the last update and its location.

  • Your keys are encrypted

    Carrier keys are stored encrypted and only their last 4 characters are shown; nobody sees them in full.

Three steps

How it works

  1. 01

    From “Connect your store” → “Shipping carriers”, add your carrier's key and make it the default.

  2. 02

    Make sure the tracking number is saved in your store's orders (or add it by hand on the order page).

  3. 03

    Try “Track a shipment” with any number, then ask Kauthar “Where is my shipment?” the way your customer would.

Real examples

How your business uses it

  • Online store

    A customer types their order number and phone and gets “Out for delivery — last update today at 10:30 AM” with the tracking link, without an employee opening any dashboard.

  • Wholesale

    Shipments with two different carriers; every order has its carrier and number, and Kauthar asks the right carrier automatically.

  • Restaurant with outsourced delivery

    Delivery through a company linked to 17TRACK; the customer asks about their order and gets the shipment status from the source, not an employee's estimate.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

My carrier isn't on the list?

Connect AfterShip or 17TRACK with your key; they track more than 1,100 carriers. Both are paid services that need your own subscription with them.

Does Kauthar message the customer when the shipment status changes?

No, the reply comes when the customer asks. A status change doesn't send a message by itself.

How often is the carrier asked about the same shipment?

At most once every 10 minutes for the same shipment, and there's an hourly limit on queries per business.

Which carriers show “Coming soon”?

R2S, Shipa and J&T UAE show “Coming soon” with the reason on the same screen.

How does the customer prove the order is theirs?

With the order number plus the phone number or email registered on the order, or by writing from the same registered WhatsApp number.
