nShift, the global leader in parcel delivery management, announces the upcoming launch of its consumer order tracking app, known as Mina Paket in Sweden, across all of the Nordics.
The nShift app consolidates information on a consumer’s orders into a single app, regardless of the retailer or carrier used. Its easy delivery tracking allows customers to follow orders from the moment they’re despatched to the moment they arrive at their front door, receiving push notifications at each stage of their journey.
Retailers and e-commerce sites will benefit from this consolidation of delivery information. It will improve the customer experience overall. nShift data also shows that “where is my order?” calls drop significantly when a retailer’s customers use the nShift app. This can reduce customer service costs by an average of 30%.
By using the nShift app, retailers and e-commerce sites can offer a branded experience to their customers. They can add their logo, color scheme, and typeface to all relevant tracking information within the nShift app. They can also make unique offers to encourage repeat visits to their site.

Notifications also include a link back to the retailer’s site should a customer require help or information on returns. Furthermore, customers can give instant feedback upon delivery, providing retailers with insight into their delivery experience and how it could be improved.
Some 3.3m consumers have already downloaded the app. As a result, they receive proactive tracking updates and an enhanced post-purchase experience. By engaging with the app, the retailer can build greater brand loyalty and open up new marketing opportunities at a time when their customers are most invested in their brand.
“The nShift app is part of nShift’s ever-evolving post-purchase suite of tools which will add value to online stores by helping them improve their customer journey,” says Sean Sherwin-Smith, post purchase product director at nShift. “Rather than handing a customer over to a carrier at the point of purchase, it allows retailers to stay with them throughout the whole journey, from sale to delivery – with the option to brand the experience if they choose.”
Integration with the nShift app is simple. Retailers who currently use nShift products to produce shipments don’t need to do anything at all, while others can automatically import shipment data directly into the app.
