What merchants think

Merchants appreciate this app for its cost savings on shipping and product costs, and its efficient claims processing that often resolves within a week. It's noted for easy setup and seamless integration with Shopify, providing straightforward package protection and tracking. The app also offers excellent customer support with fast response times and helpful service agents, improving conversion rates and customer satisfaction, especially for high-ticket items by reducing shipping-related losses. It's highly valued for enhancing the customer service aspect of shipping and delivery.

Do not download this app. It is diffcult to install and when you email for help nobody responses or they transfer you to a different department that takes even longer to respond. I have a business to run I get a lot of orders, I can't wait all day for you guys to have some professionalism and help me with your app.

I tried to get this installed on my site. They requested access as a collaborator which I gave them. I had problems with figuring out where the app was supposed to show up on my site. I emailed them multiple times with absolutely ZERO response and so I had to remove this from my site.

I have been trying to add this app for hours and now I finally said forget it. It shouldn't be this difficult to add something to your site. Even watching up to 6 videos I still did not get it so I uninstalled.

If I could, I would rate 0 stars, as the only thing this app did is to charge my customers extra and not provide any help or refund, as claimed.

I have yet to receive any reply from them on any of the emails I have sent. My customers have only received generic replies that only frustrated them further.

Was very hyped about it, but was proven to be a horrible experience.

Kevin from Route was very helpful. I ran into some issues regarding the app's compatibility with my drawer-style cart, causing me to ultimately uninstall the app, but he reached out promptly and offered a solution. I can tell this company really cares about their customers and satisfaction.

This app is annoying calling and emailing with unsolicited requests, refusing to respond by email, they only want to talk over the phone, forgetting it is online business, ecommerce - digital economy.

They do not adhere to Shopify framework, they want you out of your Shop to create a login on their side while most of the app out there would use Shopify's framework starting with seamless and pleasant login form within the Shopify. So this is not a native Shopify app but some interface to their system, you have to go elsewhere, maintain yet another account (and accounting!).

Sales tactics are annoying and marketing collateral is unhelpful defeating the purpose of the online business, which is... online! Phone books are obsolete!

We never asked for anything of them, somehow they bought our address and been sending unsolicited offers and calling us pretty annoyingly.

We refuse to create accounts outside of Shopify and uninstall apps not supporting Shopify's SSO, demanding creating accounts on their end. We also refuse to take unsolicited calls and in general despise all spam.

Any "paracite" app leaching off Shopify sellers' hard work should not be placing unreasonable demands or burdens on Shopify sellers, should be thinking how to adhere to Shopify frameworks and be more usable and user friendly. Apps that demand a separate login and a credit card outside of Shopify should be banned from the Shopify App Store.

Doesn't work! Can't change or delete the variants they always come back on a refresh. So frustrating, Deleteing the app and looking for an alternative. Not good.

Does not uninstall, code is still on website. No instructions. Should not be allowed in app store. Stay away.
