About this template

Shipping Confirmation Email — Free HTML Order Shipped Template

Shipping Confirmation Email template: An "your order has shipped" email for online stores: a four-step delivery progress bar (ordered, shipped, out for delivery, delivered), carrier, tracking number and estimated delivery, a "Track your package" button, the items in the parcel and the shipping address.

Shipping Confirmation Email is a free, responsive HTML template for telling customers their order is on its way. After the order confirmation, the "your order has shipped" email is the one customers look for most, and they often open it several times while they wait, which makes clear tracking information essential.

What's in the email

A cheerful headline with the customer's first name, a short intro, and a four-step delivery progress bar (ordered, shipped, out for delivery, delivered) that you set to the current step. A details box shows the order number, carrier, tracking number and estimated delivery date, followed by a "Track your package" button, the items in the parcel with quantities and the shipping address. Each section can be switched off.

A progress bar that works in email

Email clients don't support modern CSS, so the progress bar is built from table cells with background colours, which display reliably in Gmail, Apple Mail, Yahoo and Outlook on Windows. The tracking button is an Outlook-safe "bulletproof" button that goes full width on phones. A dark palette, hidden preheader and plain-text version are included.

Send it from your store

Copy the HTML into Shopify's shipping confirmation notification, WooCommerce, Klaviyo, Postmark or your own code and swap the sample values for your platform's variables. Use the same template for "out for delivery" and "delivered" updates by changing the step and the headline. It pairs with the Order Confirmation and Review Request templates for a complete post-purchase flow.

Why use it

Why Use the Shipping Confirmation Email Template

How it’s different

How It’s Different From Other Free Email Templates

Real email HTML you own
Not a locked design inside a sending platform. Copy production-ready HTML, download a .html file or fork it into My Code, and use it with any email service or your own code.
⚙
Coded for real inboxes
Tables, inline styles, Outlook conditional comments, a VML button and Outlook font fixes. Many free templates only look right in a browser.
◐
Dark mode built in
Separate, editable light and dark palettes, with a dark preview, instead of leaving dark mode to each email client.
✓
Checks before you send
Warnings for Gmail clipping, missing alt text, placeholder links, images that aren't hosted online, and a missing unsubscribe link or postal address.
Plain-text version included
A matching plain-text version is generated as you edit, ready for multipart emails and the clients and filters that read text.
◍
Free and private
No account, no watermark and no limits. Everything runs in your browser, and your edits are saved locally for next time.

🏠
Out for delivery update
Set the progress bar to step 3, change the headline to "Arriving today" and remind the customer that someone may need to be home to sign for the parcel.
✅
Delivered confirmation
Set the progress bar to step 4, thank the customer and link to your returns page or the Review Request email, so the post-purchase flow keeps going.
✂

When an order ships in several parcels, send one email per package and use the items section to list only the products that are in that parcel.

It is four table cells with background colours and labels, not CSS gradients or flexbox, so Outlook's Word-based renderer shows it correctly. Set the current step in the Delivery progress section.
