Delivery tracking with Shop
You can choose whether to let customers install the Shop app directly from your store's order status page. Regardless of whether you add this option to your online store, customers can still use Shop to track any order with a valid tracking number, including from your store. This doesn't influence whether your Shop Store appears in Shop.
By downloading the Shop app, your customers can benefit from the following when they track an order:
- real-time order status updates
- delivery notifications
- live-map tracking

Email markup for Shop tracking
When customers install the Shop app, they can opt in to automatic tracking by connecting a Gmail or Outlook email. After a customer connects Gmail or Outlook, Shop searches their inbox to find relevant tracking information.
To help Shop search your customers' inboxes for tracking information as accurately as possible, you can embed tracking data in your email markup using Liquid format or JSON-LD format.
