My experience with Route was the worst I've had with any Shopify app. They have everything set up nicely to entice you to sign up and make sure they get paid from your customers opting in for protection. It took 40 days for me to get my claim reimbursed and countless excuses as to why week after week I couldn't get my payment. Also, be prepared to pay for the claims yourself then fight to get your money back from route. They don't send notification before the charges are reversed or when a claim is filed just be prepared to be surprised by a negative balance in your shopify store. It took me contacting Shopify merchant support to get my claim reimbursed. I definitely do not recommend this app.
Hello there,
Thanks for taking the time to reach out. We're sorry for any issues regarding your reimbursements. I do see there was a bug in the software we use that caused delays in receiving your reimbursement. I understand how incredibly frustrating that can be. However, it was fixed and you should be receiving your payout.
For any claims paid outside of those filed with Route, we require the merchant to let us know so we can reimburse them. I do apologize if this causes any inconvenience. Please reach out if you have any further questions at: https://routeapphelp.zendesk.com/hc/en-us
Thanks,
Bianca, customer service
We have been using this service for a couple of months now. Almost every customer selects it at check out. BUT route denies every claim. So disappointing. This was supposed to help customers feel more secure about packages being protected but this app is such a letdown. We will be going back to our old insurance app.

I have never written a review but I felt like I had to in order to WARN YOU of route's FRAUDULENT business model.
They do not honor anything they claim to protect. They just say, this claim did not fit our protection policy. they make money off of you and PISS your customers OFF!
We are currently self insuring our packaging, we are very happy and immediately send a replacement in case of a loss or damage and we are in control of our customers happiness and the money WE KEEP kind of evens out WITH THE MONEY OF LOSS. SO, if route is legitimate, how can they make profit and satisfy your customers?
THE ANSWER IS THEY DON'T, THEY ONLY MAKE MONEY AND LEAVE YOU AND YOUR CUSTOMER PISSED.
UTTER DISRESPECT.

Customer service is unresponsive and promises a 2-5 day wait for fee installations, but delays extend beyond 2 weeks. The chat option is manned by a bot, not a person, leading to prolonged response times via email. Ultimately unhelpful, I uninstalled the app and suggest exploring alternatives. As a business owner, this level of customer service is unacceptable.

Everything about their business model is broken. First off, they pitch you that Route is free to merchants. That's not true. They tack on their "protection-product" at checkout, and you pay merchant fees + Shopify commission on their plans. Secondly, the customer experience is awful. Put yourself in your customer's shoes, they order from you, and their package never arrives, despite the carrier saying they delivered it. First thing they do is contact you "hey where's my package?" You send them to route to file a claim, who then says "ok, it's probably stolen, go file a police report and upload it." Ok, when is the last time you filed a police report? Yeah, I didn't think so. So the customer is left frustrated, and harassing you. In the 5 months I used route, they approved a grand total of one claim, while making anywhere between $5k-$9k from us. Instead, move towards self-insuring. Call it package protection, offer it to your customers, and keep the money for a couple times a month you'll need to reship. Route is well funded, with an aggressive sales team, but in the end, their business model makes zero sense. If you'll think about it, you'll know I'm right. Worst of all, I'm pretty sure these guys have been paying off app developers who make competing products. A really well-built app shut down overnight and is now "recommending" route. *caugh *caugh.
Hi there,
Thanks so much for your candid feedback. We are always looking to improve our practices and greatly appreciate you sharing these details. Our sincerest apologies that your experience fell short of expectations, both with platform fees and Route protection policies.
In accordance with our policies, Route Package Protection is free for merchants and available for purchase to customers on the cart page. However, please note that if you use any 3rd party platforms such as Shopify or PayPal, they may incur their own separate fees.
We were able to look into your customer claims, and it appears that - out of those unapproved - the majority were filed either out of coverage timeframe or the customer was unresponsive after the request was sent to post a police report. Per Route policy, we do require short waiting periods for delivered (but not received) or stuck-in-transit items to ensure they weren't prematurely marked as delivered or temporarily held up en route. Additionally, we require police reports for high-priced orders delivered but not received to help us and local authorities track trends and ensure reorders arrive safely.
I hope this helps clarify your customer claim resolutions, but we are so sorry for any confusion caused regarding our package protection coverage and police report requirements. For a more detailed outline of our policies, please see: https://help.route.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041131194-Route-Package-Protection-Policies. Our specialists are trained to give step-by-step instructions on how to file a report, and we are so sorry if any information remained unclear for you and your customers. We have flagged this feedback to our team and are reviewing police report filing instructions to ensure they're as clear as possible.
We do currently offer features for merchants to customize their coverage to better fit their business practices and build a more seamless customer service flow. Should you be interested in exploring those options in the future, feel free to reach out to us at merchantsupport@route.com.
Again, we greatly appreciate you sharing your experience, but we are truly sorry for any frustration or misunderstandings caused regarding platform fees or protection policies.
Please let us know if you have further feedback or questions, and we'd be happy to assist.
All the best,
Jordan, Customer Service
We lost thousands of dollars of revenue because the Route app script somehow converted our subscription products into one-time purchases. Therefore, the subscriptions never renewed, and those sales were lost. This didn't come to our attention until we noticed that recurring sales were significantly down after a couple of months. Beyond that, we were told that they would investigate the issue, but we didn't hear back for two weeks, and only then because I reached out again to see if they had un update for us. I would certainly avoid this app!
Hi there, we're so sorry to hear about any negative experience you had. Our utmost priority is to assist directly with any errors and make things right for you. We will be contacting you within the next 24-48 hours to discuss how we can rectify and resolve the issue.

The dashboard on this app has been almost useless for us. It will only show you 7 day views and nothing is able to be exported. We were expecting a much better UX and feature set based on having several calls with the Route team that unfortunately was not there. Now we're already removing the app (which all our customers have now seen) from our store just a month after launching. Was not worth the hassle it's created.
Hi there,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are sorry Route's dashboard wasn't able to hit your standards. We can definitely understand how frustrating that can be. I do see you have been in contact with your CSM about your concerns and she has been able to pass along this feedback.
If you come across any other questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out at https://routeapphelp.zendesk.com/hc/en-us. Thanks and have a great rest of your day!

Banner is not showing properly on mobile and desktop. Option does not appear at checkout. Contacted customer service atleast 5x for days and NO RESPONSE. Terrible service!
Hi there,
Thanks for taking the time to reach out. I am sorry you had a delayed response regarding your banner! I do see one of our agents was able to get you taken care of. We appreciate your patience on the matter and please reach out if you have any further problems regarding your banner. Thanks and enjoy your day!

Probably the worst app I've ever attempted to use. And their customer service is also not the best. I emailed them for a month as the app was bugging my checkout flow and I lost sells due to them, but I still wanted to use the app and their answer after making me wait this long was "I have just asked the implementation team about this issue and they let me know that it won't be fixed anytime soon considering the backlog of bugs currently in queue. They are also having a difficult time replicating the issue so it will take a while to fix. I don't have an ETA from them on when this could be fixed. I'm terribly sorry about that, but I will keep this ticket in my "on-hold" queue and let you know when I have any updates." A literal "we don't care!".
Hi there,
Thanks so much for relaying your experience to us. Our sincerest apologies for the implementation bug and delay as our team is working through a log of over 7k merchants on a variety of platforms. We were able to connect with them last week to prioritize your website snag and do everything we can to make things right.
We are so sorry you felt our initial response was inadequate. Our logs show we responded within our usual 24-48 business hour goal and helped solve that initial checkout error on the same day you reached out. We apologize that your implementation snag persisted and that the implementation delay caused frustrations.
We’re showing that our team was able to take a deeper dive into the issue and found that the checkout error was a result of the general network and Shopify network speed in Denmark. It appears there have been several other merchants experiencing similar snags that are also unrelated to the Route app:
1) https://community.shopify.com/c/Technical-Q-A/Cart-error-message/td-p/780481
2) https://community.shopify.com/c/Shopify-Discussion/Urgent-PLEASE-Cart-error/td-p/583948
Again, our sincerest apologies for the abnormal implementation wait and for any inconveniences you’ve experienced while working through your website troubles.
While one of our specialists was able to email you directly with this information, should you run into any future questions please feel free to reach out to us directly via your Route email thread or here: https://help.route.com/hc/en-us.
All the best,
Jordan, Customer Service
I’ve been using this app for my customers both United States and Jamaica and it was not until 3 days ago they blocked my check out button from my Jamaican customers. Why would you put a coding into my theme that made it difficult for some of my customers to check out? And the proof is there so this is not made up!
