Trackboria in South Africa
Running deliveries in South Africa
South Africa is the market on this list where the address is usually correct and the delivery still fails. Street lines are formal, suburbs are mapped, postal codes exist, and then the rider reaches a boom gate, an estate guard house or an office park reception that will not let anyone through without a resident confirming. The failure is access, not navigation. Trackboria puts the customer phone number on the delivery and the delivery status in front of the merchant, so a rider held at a gate is visible as a stall on the board rather than as a complaint an hour later.
Prepayment is common here, which makes the tracking link the main thing the customer wants. Cash on delivery still runs in parallel, collected in rand and recorded against the order at handoff. Merchants dispatching in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban and Pretoria run the four from one workspace, with per city reporting when the numbers need comparing.
Pay-as-you-go starts at R 23 per order with no monthly fee, or move to the Starter plan at R 696 per month for 300 orders included.
How South African addresses actually arrive
A South African address comes in almost complete: "12 Main Rd, Sea Point", a suburb, a postal code, and then the part that decides the delivery, a complex name, a unit number and whoever has to be called at the gate. Trackboria keeps the full text the customer sent, including the gate instruction, rather than trimming it into a street field, and keeps the phone number attached so the rider can get through without calling the merchant first.

Common questions in South Africa
Is pricing in rand?
Yes. South African plans are priced and charged in rand, with tax shown as part of the total in the pricing section on this page. Pay-as-you-go has no monthly fee and charges per delivered order; monthly plans start at Starter and include a set number of orders.
Can it handle estate and office park access?
It gives the rider what is needed to get through: the address as written, any gate or unit instruction the customer included, and the customer phone number, all on the delivery. It cannot open a boom. What it does do is show you a delivery that has stopped moving, so a rider stuck at a gate is something you see rather than something you hear about afterwards.
Does it connect to Shopify or WooCommerce?
Yes, on the plans that include store connections. Store orders land in the same queue as chat orders, get the same tracking link, and appear in the same reports. The number of connected stores allowed per plan is on the pricing cards below.
Do you supply the drivers?
No. You deliver with your own drivers or a courier you contract, and Trackboria is what you dispatch, track and reconcile them on. We do not run a fleet in South Africa and will not tell you we do.
