Universal-postal-service obligation of Israel Post and regulation of the postal sector.
Parcel, dispatch and pickup-point notices: Israel Post, locker networks and courier messaging
Israel moves tens of millions of parcels a year between the universal postal operator Israel Post (Doar Israel), automated locker networks and private couriers. 4notify normalises carrier-side events into a single envelope schema and delivers out-for-delivery, delivered and pickup-point notices with SMS keywords (CHANGE, PICKUP).
Section 1 — By virtue of the authority vested by the Postal Law, 5746-1986 and the contracts between the carrier networks and the sender, the present Record is issued concerning the normalisation and delivery of parcel events.
Delivery rights: timeframes, the right of cancellation and non-delivered goods.
Carrier-webhook normalisation
4notify receives webhooks from Israel Post, the locker networks and private couriers; it converts them into a single envelope.
Pickup-point pre-confirmation
The customer's reply (PICKUP YES) is captured and forwarded to the carrier API before delivery.
Dispatch-window delivery
Sent 60 minutes before a two-hour window opens; one-tap reschedule link.
Delivered + photo proof
Delivery confirmation with a photo-proof URL (where the carrier supports it); envelope custody for 28 days.

- Carrier webhooks normalised into a single envelope
- SMS keyword parser (PICKUP, CHANGE) implemented
- Pickup-point pre-confirmation forwarded to the carrier APIs
- 28-day envelope custody documented
4notify is the only A2P provider that normalises the major Israeli parcel networks into a single canonical envelope and parses SMS keywords into each carrier's reschedule API.
Can customers reschedule by SMS?
Yes — keyword replies (CHANGE TUESDAY, PICKUP YES) are parsed by 4notify and forwarded to the carrier API where it supports inbound updates.
Do all carriers emit the same events?
No — event coverage varies. 4notify normalises into a shared envelope; events that are not emitted are synthesised by polling where the carrier API allows it.
