Route ‑ Protection & Tracking

Route has saved our customer service department so much time by handling the majority of our lost, stolen, or damaged packages. We are always so excited when we see Route has been attached to an order with an issue because it will be taken care of quickly! Plus Route saves our company so much money by replacing packages with the money they collect, not our company funds. Our rep Robert and the customer service team have been so helpful when issues arise. We are so happy with Route's services.

Professional team, easy to resolve requests and questions, provides coverage in an area where our company has historically had a need that no one else could fill, and the cost is very reasonable. Very pleased with the internal side of working with Route and with the external side of offering a great service to our customers.

We are always working towards better, and this is definitely a great solution for clients who may have experienced issues with the delivery of packages and new "safe drop" procedures by most major carriers. Custom support and whole ROUTE team is A ++

Big sales push up front promising all your problems will be resolved without any of it backed up by reality once in use. Removing from our Shopify page after a year of use and zero customers actually being helped by it. They just want to use your small business store to skim money for themselves. For example, they will allow your customers to (unintentionally/accidentally) purchase Route protection on an in-store pick up order. They offered no remedy to this issue and don't really care. It's up to you to claw back the money.

Route's customer service is very helpful! They were able to fix a problem I was having in integrating Route into my store. There's always someone there to help! Requests for reimbursement are easy to initiate. Customers seem to like Route as well.

Excellent App! We were very cautious at first but now, we love it and it has saved us a lot of money on refunds due to lost packages. And we don't have to deal with UPS Claims! Thank you for a great App!

Waste of time. Talked to Ryan at Route he offered a very low rate (vs competitors). I didn't know at the time the rate could be higher. I signed up and never got any payment from them. They said because I didn't sign some paperwork yet they were able to take payments just not able to pay me. So I canceled them and went with Redo sure enough they came back and said they would fix the mistake (pay what they owe me, pay the higher rate) and NEVER did. But they continued to deduct from our customers. Emailed for follow ups gave them weeks to get this resolved and they ignored my emails.

Disappointing Experience — Lack of Support and Unfair Billing Practices

We had high hopes when integrating Route into our store, but unfortunately, our experience has been deeply disappointing. From the start, we operated under a verbal agreement regarding a profit share model, which Route later claimed was never formalized—despite it being a key part of our original understanding.

When we raised concerns about billing discrepancies, instead of working with us toward a fair resolution, the team became unresponsive and dismissive. We were told the issue would be reviewed, but have since been met with delays and no effort to find a middle ground. It's frustrating to feel ignored, especially when we're simply asking for transparency and fairness.

If you're a merchant looking for a partner who values clear communication and mutual respect, I strongly urge you to think twice. Our goal was always to resolve this professionally and respectfully, but we were left with no support and no resolution.

TERRIBLE Company-uninstalled Route after 4 months. Very bad experience for your customers- plus we have not received 2 payments from Route. Don't recommend as a consumer or as a website operator. Your customers will have a very bad experience! LOOK at the Better Business Bureau Reviews- 9 PAGES OF COMPLAINTS! I wish I had thought to look at the BBB first. Plus we have NOT BEEN PAID YET BY ROUTE! As a website we began using Route mid 2024. Many of our wonderful shoppers pay extra to have their packages "protected." However less than 1% actually need it and when they do Route makes them provide their Drivers License or ID and to add insult to injury they then ask them to do it AGAIN to have their claim notarized. YES you need to go to a live person and show them your ID as well! What a waste of time and energy and lack of data privacy for a $30 claim! I feel badly for anyone who has to make a claim. We heard so many bad reviews from our customers that we used Route personally several times and then, when our package was missing, we filed a claim. Oh my, it was worse than customers told us. Such a ridiculous interface and so much to do. They don't track your package and find it. They don't even try and interface with the place you purchased. Instead they have you- the customer who paid for their service, email them, take photos of ID, download your ID, write a narrative as to why you don't have it and then you have to RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND and SWEAR that you don't have the package that has been lost!! So humiliating. I feel so bad for any customer who actually has to use the Route service.
We agree with Global Formula's review, "They steal your customers money" RUN! And as website, they keep our money for 90 to 120 days. They keep 75% of the charge and claim they pay 25% to the retailer, but we have not seen a dime yet. They hire an insurance company--and guess what- insurance companies are in business to make money. SEG and Lloyds of London insure them. Beware of using Route.

Quick responses and exceptional staff! We're always satisfied with the help we receive from the Route team.
