Accessing Ship24's La Poste Tracking API for Free

Yes, you can access the Ship24 tracking API for free. Ship24 offers a variety of plans that cater to different needs and budgets. If you opt for the "per-shipment" plan, you are entitled to 10 free API calls. This plan is perfect if you're looking to track a small number of shipments.

Different Plan for More API Calls

If you require more API calls, consider the "per-call" plan. This plan grants you 100 free API calls, making it an ideal choice if you have a larger volume of shipments to track. Remember, the right choice of plan depends on your specific needs and the volume of shipments you handle.

Tracking API for International Shipments

La Poste, like many other postal services synonymous with the country of origin, such as USPS, China Post, and Japan Post, all usually subcontract shipping orders outside of their respective countries due to not having the capability to offer universal tracking options with their in-house fleets. This means items shipped with La Post or any of the aforementioned often change hands between various private couriers, which can result in the ability to access the latest tracking information through the La Poste website.

In this case, many are turning to Ship24's global tracking system to be able to track their parcel wherever it is and whoever is handling the parcel now. Ship24 doesn't need the person tracking the parcel to know which courier the parcel is being handled by as the Ship24 tracking system uses the tracking ID to automatically detect which courier a package is with. This automatic detection system makes it as simple as possible to use Ship24 and sets it apart from other tracking systems in the market.

Where other tracking companies may require lots of information, or for you to select from a long drop-down menu which courier is handling your package, Ship24 only needs the tracking number and its superior tracking system does the rest. Ship24 tracks over 1000 couriers and thousands of different shops, scouring the internet to find out the location of your parcel and its current status.

Track Multiple Parcels with Ship24's Tracking API

DPD shipment services also have their own track and trace system for their parcel, however, it is separate from La Poste which can make tracking a parcel that passes between the two difficult, especially if the tracking number changes slightly between handlers, as sometimes happens.

To solve these issues, the Ship24 tracking API is designed to take these variables into account and can still track a parcel along its journey no matter how many couriers or countries it transitions through. The Ship24 tracking API can scan all the relevant courier websites, whether it be La Poste, GeoPost, DPDgroup, or otherwise, to find the location of your La Poste package and its current status.

La Poste Tracking API Event Notifications

A La Poste tracking API will provide you with 100 of the notifications you would receive tracking directly with La Poste or any other courier. La Poste tracking API notifications will be created when a La Poste shipment arrives, is processed at or dispatched from any carrier center, warehouse, post office, or any other form of checkpoint which your parcel will pass through on its journey to its final destination.

An example of some of the notifications you would receive are as follows: Package received, the package being processed by customs, the parcel is out for delivery, and so on.

If you do not understand any of the tracking notifications, they have not changed or you believe your parcel is heading in the wrong direction/to the wrong address, you need to contact the courier company directly. Tracking your shipment with Ship24 will give you all the information you need to resolve issues with your parcel, however, it cannot deal with problem-solving for individual parcels as this is the responsibility of the carrier.

Ship24’s tracking API is a all-in-one tracking solution for your business.
