Gmarket package tracking

Complete Tracking Guide for Gmarket Global Orders

Gmarket is one of the biggest online marketplaces in South Korea, offering everything from fashion to electronics. If you’re ordering internationally from global.gmarket.co.kr, keeping track of your package can be confusing at first, but it doesn’t have to be. Whether you’ve received a tracking number, prefer using your Gmarket account, or want to use a third-party tracker like PackyApp, this guide explains every step in simple language.

How to Track a Gmarket Order

Once you place an order on Gmarket, the seller processes it and prepares the shipment. You’ll first get an order confirmation. Then, once the package is shipped, a tracking number will be added either in your confirmation email or under your order details on the Gmarket website.

If tracking is available, you can use it through Gmarket’s site, the courier’s website, or a third-party tracking service. Gmarket primarily works with major couriers like Korea Post, EMS, CJ Logistics, and DHL. The tracking number lets you monitor every step, from warehouse pickup to international delivery.

If a tracking number isn’t provided, the item may be shipped with an untracked service, in which case your best option is to follow general order status updates through your Gmarket account.

Using a Tracking Number

  • Locate the tracking number from your shipment email or under “My Gmarket.”
  • Identify the courier (e.g., Korea Post, DHL, CJ Logistics).
  • Go to the courier’s official site and paste the number in their tracking field.
  • You’ll see the latest scan events and estimated delivery date.

Through Your Gmarket Account

  • Go to https://global.gmarket.co.kr
  • Sign in, and click on “My Gmarket” in the top menu
  • Select “Purchase History” or “Track Order.”
  • Click on the order in question—you’ll see the tracking number, shipping company, and package status.
  • Clicking the tracking number will redirect you to the courier’s site for full tracking details.

Tracking with PackyApp

  • Copy your tracking number from Gmarket.
  • Visit https://packyapp.com.
  • Paste the number into the input box and click “Track.”
  • You’ll see a visual timeline of where your package is, including customs steps, international shipping legs, and final delivery.

Common Issues & FAQs

Why isn’t my Gmarket tracking number working? It may take 24–72 hours for the number to become active after shipment. This is common if the item was just picked up or hasn’t left Korea yet. Try again later or check your Gmarket account for updates.

How long does Gmarket delivery take? Standard international shipping (Korea Post): 7–14 business days. DHL Express: 3–7 business days. Economy shipping (ePOST or K-Packet): 10–20 days, depending on destination and customs delays.

It says “Delivered,” but I didn’t get anything—what now? Check around your mailbox, porch, apartment lobby, or ask neighbors. If the package is missing, contact the local courier first. If you still can’t find it, reach out to Gmarket support with your tracking number.

Can I change my shipping address after placing an order? No, Gmarket does not allow address changes after your order is confirmed. If your address is wrong, cancel the order immediately (if possible) and reorder with the correct information.

Why is my package stuck in customs? Some countries require import documentation or inspections. Customs delays may last a few days to two weeks. You can contact your local customs office or the courier handling the package in your country.
