Parcel tracking with the GLS Mobile App

Parcel tracking
With GLS, senders and recipients can track their parcels at any time. After entering the parcel number (also shipment number) or Track ID, detailed information appear on-screen about the parcel and the delivery process itself. This includes the estimated delivery day and the most recently carried-out action. Parcel tracking is free of charge. Anyone sending or expecting several parcels can track them all simultaneously using the online parcel tracking function.
How parcel tracking works in detail: Each parcel label includes a 2D barcode. It contains all the necessary parcel data, including the parcel number. The code is scanned at all the main transport points and the current position and the most recently performed action is transmitted to the GLS system. This is important for the entire logistics coordination process.
GLS makes the information available via the online parcel tracking function, meaning that you too can track your parcel at any time. When the parcel, for example, is loaded into a delivery vehicle, the driver scans the code on the label with the hand-held scanner. Even if the recipient is not present at the time of the delivery attempt, the scanner will still come into operation. The driver then scans the notification card, which is left behind for the recipient. All the data is collated in the GLS system. Parcel tracking is then possible using both the parcel number and the Track ID from the notification card.
