PostNord vs WhereParcel

PostNord

PostNord's developer portal exposes REST APIs for shipment tracking, service-point lookup, pickup booking, and postal-code surcharge data across its Swedish and Danish delivery network. Every endpoint requires an x-bap-key API key issued through the portal's self-serve signup, and responses carry CORS headers for direct browser calls. A Free plan covers a meaningful daily quota per method — 500,000 tracking calls a day, for one — with a metered Customer plan billing per call once volume climbs past those limits.

WhereParcel

WhereParcel is a unified parcel-tracking API that normalizes shipment status across 64+ carriers — including USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, and TNT — behind a single REST endpoint and webhook system, so integrators don't need a separate connector per carrier. Every request is authenticated with a Bearer API key and answered with full CORS support for browser-side calls, typically in 500ms for cached lookups and 2-3 seconds for live carrier queries. There's no free-forever tier: plans start at $49/month for 10,000 requests, each with a 7-day free trial.
