How can I track my order?

There are several ways to check the estimated delivery date and track your order.

  1. When the retailer has confirmed your order, we’ll send you a confirmation email with your estimated delivery window.
  2. As soon as the retailer has dispatched your order, we’ll send a follow-up email which will also include your estimated delivery time and tracking details if the retailer has selected a tracked service.
  3. You can also find the estimated delivery window by logging in to your OnBuy account - simply go to View Orders, find the relevant order and click ‘View Order Details’.

If you checked out as a guest you can still track your order. In your order dispatch e-mail, there will be a link to the tracking data, if the retailer you chose to order from, used a tracked delivery method.
