USPS Tracking Plus is an optional service offered by the United States Postal Service (USPS) that provides additional features and services for an added fee. It allows customers to extend their access to the tracking history for their package on USPS.com. The service provides a detailed tracking history that allows customers to track their package every step of the way, from when it enters the USPS network to when it is delivered to their door.

USPS Tracking Plus works by providing customers with a shipment tracking number that they can use to track their package online. Customers can also use the tracking number to track their parcel on the USPS website or through their mobile app. The service includes the ability to track packages on a map, schedule package pickups, and receive text or email notifications about the status of their parcel.

USPS Tracking Plus has set fees for how long customers want to implement it. The amount of information required to be held is massive, so there is more technology and storage involved. Typically, USPS tracking allows customers to access delivery information for 120 days for non-signature items. However, with USPS Tracking Plus, customers can access an extended tracking history for their package beyond the standard 120 days provided for non-signature items. The extended tracking history allows customers to keep track of their domestic shipping history for up to 10 years and their international shipping history for up to 7 years.

USPS Tracking Plus is particularly useful for those who require proof of billing for legal actions or refunds. Law firms, banks, small businesses, accountants, and eCommerce marketplaces are some who both use the mail often and need to keep information protected for an extended time. The service is also beneficial for people who need to keep track of their shipments for legal or business purposes.
