PigeonTrail prints a USPS barcode on your envelope, so a letter you mail with a regular stamp shows each USPS scan on its way. You and your buyer follow it on a live map. It's built for small sellers, and the first 100 letters each month are free.

Hi Product Hunt! A letter mailed with a Forever stamp normally vanishes until it arrives, which is a real problem when you sell trading cards, stickers or anything else that fits in an envelope, because a tracked package costs several times more than what's inside. PigeonTrail prints USPS's Intelligent Mail barcode on the envelope, the same barcode large mailers use, so every time a USPS machine reads it, the scan shows up in PigeonTrail and on a tracking page your buyer can open.
It brings in orders from Shopify, eBay, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Wix, Square, ShipStation, ShippingEasy and Mana Pool, reads the order files TCGplayer and Etsy export, prints envelopes or labels on your own printer, and the iPhone and Android apps scan your stack on the way to the mailbox. Keep in mind that a letter's scans aren't a carrier tracking number, so an order that a marketplace says must ship with tracking still needs a package.
We'd love to hear what you mail and what would make this more useful.
