Track any parcel by its number.

Shipping emails bury the tracking link under the order summary, and the number on a receipt or a customer's message has no link at all. A Wyrd keyword for each carrier you use opens its tracking page from the number: two minutes, once, and every parcel after that is one line.

Short answer. Save the carrier's tracking address (below) under a keyword such as ups. Then type > ups 1Z999AA10123456784 in the address bar and press Enter. Or select a tracking number on any page, right-click it and choose Wyrd search.

See it work

Two ways in: type the number, or right-click it where you found it. Try both.

Set it up

Two minutes, once. There is no address of your own to look up: the carriers' tracking addresses are the same for everyone.

1. Add Wyrd from the Chrome Web Store.
2. Copy the tracking address of your carrier. These are the carriers' current tracking links; each has the number where %s is.

   UPS: https://www.ups.com/track?loc=en_US&tracknum=%s

   FedEx: https://www.fedex.com/fedextrack/?trknbr=%s

   USPS: https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction?tLabels=%s

   New in 1.2Add to Wyrd does this and the next step for you: Wyrd's Add box opens with the keyword and the address filled in. Check them and press Add; nothing is saved until you do.

3. Click Wyrd's icon in Chrome's toolbar. Paste the address into Address, type ups in Keyword and click Save.
4. In the address bar, type >, press Space, then ups and a tracking number, and press Enter.

Whatever you type after the keyword goes where the address says %s. Carriers change their sites now and then: if a keyword stops working, track a parcel on the carrier's site, copy the address of the result and put %s where the number is.

Right-click a tracking number where you read it

In a shipping email, an order page or a message open in Chrome, double-click the tracking number to select it, right-click, choose Wyrd search: "…" and then the carrier. The tracking page opens in a new tab next to the one you are reading.

• The menu lists your three most-used search keywords, so ups joins it once you use it more than the others.
• To keep your carriers there from day one, under names like UPS tracking and FedEx tracking: open Wyrd's Features page (Settings → Features), switch on Your right-click searches and pick them, up to 12. It needs no permission.
• It works on web pages in Chrome, such as Gmail or Outlook in a tab. Desktop apps outside Chrome have their own menus.

More tracking keywords

Not sure which carrier? UPS numbers usually start with 1Z; the shipping email or the shop's order page names the carrier.

For shops: the whole team, the same keywords

Customer service and the warehouse answer "where is my parcel?" all day. Put each carrier's tracking keyword in the team's shared list, next to the order search (see the Shopify guide), the returns policy and the shipping rates, and everyone types the same words. Each person's own keywords always win over the list's, so nobody loses theirs. Free for teams of up to 30 people; larger teams, see pricing.

How: share links with your team, or start from the small team template.

If it does not work

• The carrier's page opens without the parcel. The address is missing %s, or the carrier has changed its page: track one parcel there and save the new address (above).
• "No information found". Check the number came whole, without spaces, and that it is that carrier's parcel.
• Google searches for "ups …". The > and the space were missing, or Wyrd is switched off in chrome://extensions.
• The right-click menu has no ups. It is not among your three most-used searches yet: switch on Your right-click searches (above).
• "This site can't be reached" or "Server Not Found" at wyrd.internal. That address only works inside Wyrd: Wyrd is not installed in this browser, or needs an update. Add it from the Chrome Web Store, then try again.
