1.Monitor order created
Integrate Track-POD and delivery systems to detect a new order and trigger downstream carrier updates.
Update carrier on delivery order from storefront tag
Automatically monitor delivery orders created in Track-POD across Track-POD and Shopify. Automatically update when orders created, delivery records appear, or shipment orders startβso you can match storefront orders, extract shipper tags, and update delivery records without manual carrier rechecks.
How this automation protects delivery carrier accuracy
When orders get created but the carrier shipper tag is missing or outdated, delivery routing can go wrong and teams scramble. This automation waits briefly, looks up the Shopify order and metafields, and updates the Track-POD delivery recordβso your team gets correct carrier assignments without manual carrier rechecks.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism β I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
