How can I track my order with IFS/FEDEX?
It's very simple. IFS will use the same E-mail address that you have used when placing an order.
When your order has been dispatched, you'll receive a confirmation e-mail from Kids Store letting you know that the goods are about to leave us and details of the courier consignment number, along with a link to the couriers tracking facility.
For your extra assurance we also ask our couriers to send you an email confirmation and tracking link.
After that, you will also receive an email from IFS when the goods have been collected by them as well as an email when the courier is out for delivery.
From there you just need to follow the hyperlink supplied in their email to you to their website, or track manually via the consignment number again supplied in their email to you.
Below is a sample screenshot from an order that is out for delivery. You should be able to see something similar when we ship your order with IFS Courier.
