Tracking Your Vinted Order: A Simple and Friendly Guide

Buying and selling on Vinted is a great way to refresh your wardrobe, but when you place an order, naturally, you want to know where your package is at every step. Luckily, Vinted offers several easy ways to track your purchases — whether you have a tracking number, want to check inside your Vinted account, or prefer using third-party tracking sites. This guide breaks down how to keep an eye on your order, what tracking numbers look like, and explains all those delivery statuses you might see, so you’re never left guessing.

How to Track a Vinted Order

Vinted works a little differently than traditional stores since items come from individual sellers, but you can still keep track of your orders in these ways:


  • Use the tracking number provided by the seller.
  • Checking your order status directly in your Vinted account.
  • Using third-party tracking websites for quick updates.

Here’s the lowdown on each method.

Using a Tracking Number

Once your seller ships your order, they usually upload a tracking number on Vinted and sometimes send it directly to you via message.

To track using your tracking number:

  • Log in to your email or Vinted messages to find the tracking number.
  • Head to the carrier’s website (like Royal Mail, Hermes/Evri, or ParcelForce).
  • Enter the tracking number in their tracking tool.
  • Hit track and watch your package move through the system.


Keep in mind, some sellers may not provide tracking if they use non-tracked shipping options.

Through Your Vinted Account

If you want to check without searching for tracking numbers:


  • Log in to your Vinted account.
  • Go to “Purchases” from the menu.
  • Click on the order you want to track.
  • You’ll see the status and tracking info if available.


This is the easiest way to get the latest updates, especially if you buy frequently.

Using Third-Party Tracking Sites

If you want one place to track multiple packages from different sellers or stores, third-party sites are handy:


  • Visit websites like PackyApp.
  • Enter your Vinted tracking number.
  • Select the carrier if asked.
  • Click “Track” and get a quick update.


Third-party sites are great when your Vinted parcel is handled by common couriers.


Vinted Tracking Number Formats

Because Vinted sellers use various delivery services, tracking numbers vary widely. Here are some common formats you might see in the UK:

Since Vinted sellers can choose different couriers, keep an eye on the format to know where to track.


Carriers Used by Vinted

Vinted orders come from a mix of individual sellers, so your package could be with several different carriers depending on who’s sending it:

  • Royal Mail: The most common for small parcels and letters.
  • Hermes (Evri): Popular for tracked parcel deliveries.
  • ParcelForce: Used for tracked and express deliveries.
  • DPD: Occasionally used for faster shipments.
  • Local couriers: Some sellers may use regional services or drop-off points.


Each carrier updates its tracking info differently, so don’t worry if one site updates slower than another.

Standard UK deliveries take around 3-7 business days but can vary based on the seller’s location and chosen shipping method.

Tracking says “Delivered” but I haven’t got my parcel — what should I do?
Check with neighbors or your local post office. If you still can’t find it, message your seller and contact Vinted support.

Can I track my Vinted order without a tracking number?
Yes! Check your “Purchases” tab in your Vinted account for the latest status.

What if the seller never ships my order?
If the seller delays or doesn’t ship, open a dispute through Vinted within their protection time window.
