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!

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
Our relationship with Route was over before it began - a relentless and extremely presumptuous (borderline rude, to be honest) sales and onboarding strategy reflect poorly on your brand. Aside from your incredibly irritating sales team, the app itself really doesn't seem automated or useful enough to be worth it.
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!
Hi there, we sincerely apologize for any issues you may have experienced with Route. Our number one priority is to assist directly with any shortcomings and ensure that any issues are rectified. A member of our team will be contacting you within the next 1-2 business days to discuss how we can address and resolve this issue.
If you have any further questions or concerns, we encourage you to reach out at any time through our Help Center or live chat via your merchant dashboard: https://route.com/help-center.

This company gives a good sales pitch, but doesn't follow through. The experience for both the customer and on the admin side is sub par. Don't let this company represent your brand's customer service. It's especially not sufficient for perishable companies even though they claim that "we insure all kinds of perishable companies." We wasted a bunch of time on this. Don't waste yours.
Waste of time. The insurance option never appeared on the checkout and continuous efforts to get support never yielded any results. The app is a great idea and Shopify desperately needs a working app for shipping insurance but unfortunately this app is note ready for prime time :(
I had to uninstall this app. It feels scammy. They would not credit me for purchases that were cancelled. There is no way to reconcile the charges. The customer service is non-existent.
Stay away.
Hi there, we deeply apologize for any negative experience you had. Our number one priority is to assist directly with any issues and make things right for you.

Terrible app. I have barely had this app for a month and it is terrible. I received several emails to update my billing (which does not even make sense as there have been NO changes with my billing), I try to login in to see what the issue is and I get an error stating there is no account associated with my email. HUH? HOW? I went through my list of emails and nothing. I send in a support request (mind you, it took 5 days to get any sort of response from customer support) and they say the only email they have on file is THE ONE I HAD TYPED IN 5 TIMES. Absolutely ridiculous and frustrating and now I have tons of orders with no package coverage because of this terrible app.
Hi there,
Thanks so much for your candid feedback. We're always looking to improve our merchant experience, so we greatly appreciate you relaying this info over to us.
We're so sorry for any confusion caused, but we're glad it appears we were able to sort out your login issues. To ensure your billing questions were resolved as well, we had a merchant support specialist follow-up via email this morning.
We took a look into your support requests, and we're showing your messages were addressed within 24-48 business hours. At Route, we strive to respond to requests within 24-48 business hours of receipt, and we're so sorry for any initial misunderstandings regarding response times. Lastly, it appears the login troubles were due to an incorrect email address being initially saved onto your account that our team has since fixed.
Again, our sincerest apologies for any frustrations experienced, but we're happy to hear our team was able to work through the snags with you.
If you continue to run into any billing, login, or Route-related questions, please feel free to reach out to us at: merchantsupport@route.com and we'll be more than happy to assist.
All the best,
Jordan, Customer Service
