People frequently come to Google Search looking to find information on the status of their
packages. To make it easier to find, we have created a new package tracking feature that
enables shipping companies to show people the status of their packages right on Search. Here's
an example of how this information may appear:
Through the package tracking Early Adopters Program, which is available in all countries, shipping
companies can sign-up to participate in this feature and give feedback on how to improve it. To
take part in the program, a carrier will need to provide a RESTful JSON or XML API that returns
the package tracking information. We can work with you to reuse an existing API or setup a new
one.

Carriers can join the Early Adopters Program globally by providing a RESTful JSON or XML API for package tracking data, reusing an existing API or creating a new one. Companies interested in participating should review eligibility requirements and complete the interest form. Questions can be directed to the forum or Twitter.\n"]]
