We have been using Route since February, and it has made things SO much better for both our CX team and customers! Filing claims is so easy, and issues are resolved far more often than not. Our CSM, Annabelle, is always quick to respond and extremely helpful! Route's support team is very communicative and easy to work with. We highly recommend using Route!

I started using Route in August 2020. I have been very pleased with their services. Due to major delivery issues through the USPS stemming from COVID and other factors, Route has replaced several lost packages which has kept my customers very happy. I have had no issues in getting claims processed extremely quickly. The only suggestion that I can make is coming up with a solution as to when orders are edited on a merchant's end. My customers are always wanting to add or remove items from their orders. If the customer has already selected the Route protection in their order and request that additional items be added to the order, Route goes by the initial order created should the order have to be replaced or refunded. This area needs some help. I will continue using Route as my customers have enjoyed having peace of mind.

Hi there,

Thanks so much for your review! We are so happy that you and your customers have enjoyed the peace of mind Route package protection brings. Additionally, we greatly appreciate your valuable feedback regarding post purchase order editing & Route protection.

As Route is calculated on the cost of the items in the order, our current system is unable to automatically recalculate Route protection when an item is added or modified post purchase. If an edit needs to be made, merchants can simply cancel the original order (pre-fulfillment) and recreate with the customer’s edits and add Route.

Again, thanks so much for partnering with us. We greatly appreciate having you on board & look forward to working with you in the future. Your feedback regarding original order edits has been passed onto our team. However, should you run into any future questions feel free to reach out to us at merchantsupport@route.com.

All the best,

You NEED Route for your store. I love how easy it is to make a claim. I also love the peace of mind when a customer sends me an angry email about how their order is lost, and I can say, "Its ok, your package is insured". It saves me soooo much time!

We love Route! Our company ships thousands of packages and they're large, expensive furniture items. Route has saved us thousands of dollars over time. We used to waste hours of employee time filing claims, lost many funds due to inaccurate claims we made by ourselves, and dealt with angry customers who didn't know how to get their items once lost. With Route, we use their provided customer friendly wording and give that to our customers who are easily able to request help, and have the claim resolved quickly through Routes website or app. Adding Route to our business has been a lifesaver! we 10/10 one hundred percent recommend!

Route is pretty mandatory for us. I read a few of the one-star reviews, and it's just people who didn't understand the fine print nor understand mistakes and issues can happen. This is by far easier than dealing with a carrier, and infinitely less work. Spare yourself the headache. It's better to deal with random, minor headaches with Route than deal with a carrier where you have to wait 40 business days or more for an insurance claim.

We love Route. This has taken the hassle out of insuring our packages. We’ve had one claim so far and it was handled quickly and successfully per their policies. The customer files claims and the replacements are placed automatically, no more labor on the merchants unlike most solutions. Previously we used Shipsurance through Shopify and the experience kept getting worse and worse, with all of their policies being vague and optional, resulting in never knowing how long claims would take to be eligible and subjecting our customers to extremely long delays as Shipsurance dragged their feet for WEEKS. Route clearly states a claim timeline and so far have completely followed it. We’re glad we switched and are very happy with the coverage.

We are a small family business in the business of shipping perishables across the country. We have been doing this going on 3.5 years now and I can’t tell you how many orders we’ve lost and how many customers with unacceptable shipments. We had the fortunate luck of an incredible route representative that stayed persistent. Her persistence led us to take a meeting and presenting the incredible value that route brings to our business and more importantly our customers. This is the only time I can tell you that it’s too good and it’s all true ! Our patrons see the value and more importantly their order is covered. In the first month alone we saved so many patrons money and more importantly our patrons know they are covered. Route is a an absolute must for any business. Do not ship anything unless you have route as an option!

I do love this app. I have found so much help and simplicity in navigating my customers to help with their shipping needs. I do wish it was easier for them to contact Route at times, but I understand things are moving slower during this pandemic. I have been happy with this application and will continue to offer it to my customers.

Route is a hassle, since we switched to another company after Route increased their prices none of our customers are able to file claims. All claims have to be done trough their customer service. They Policy is poorly written to the point that makes me believe it is on purpose so they can cover the orders that they want.
