Can I add proof of delivery manually from the web app?

Yes. Admins can upload photos and notes directly to a stop from the browser if something couldn’t be captured from a mobile device.

See: Manual Upload

Does EasyRoutes support real-time updates for BigCommerce orders?

Yes, via Zapier or API integrations. See: Zapier Guide

Can I hide driver location from customers?

Yes. Live driver location on tracking pages is optional - keep it internal or show it to customers when their driver is 1–10 stops away.

See: Real‑time Driver Location

How do I add a driver to EasyRoutes?

Invite drivers from the Drivers & Vehicles tab of your EasyRoutes navigation menu. Enter a driver's phone number and they’ll receive a link to install and sign in to the app.

See: Adding a Driver

Are there API rate limits?

Yes. Rate limits protect platform reliability. If you plan high‑volume integrations, contact support to discuss throughput and best practices (batching, webhooks).

See: API Getting Started

Who should use EasyRoutes for Web?

Choose EasyRoutes for Web if you don’t use Shopify or prefer a standalone planner. Import orders from spreadsheets (CSV), connect webhook events to Zapier for no-code automations, or integrate directly with our API to push/pull data programmatically. It’s ideal for delivery teams moving off manual tools and wanting automation without switching e-commerce platforms.

See: Import orders from CSV · API: Getting Started · Zapier webhooks

Can I combine BigCommerce orders with orders from other platforms?

Yes. EasyRoutes supports routing orders from multiple platforms together. See: BigCommerce Integration

Does EasyRoutes support Shopify Subscription orders?

Yes. Subscription orders from Shopify can be planned like standard orders. EasyRoutes also integrates with popular subscription/checkout apps.

See: Shopify Subscription Orders · Third‑party apps

Can I send delivery reminders to customers?

Yes. Configure email/SMS templates (e.g., Ready for Delivery, Out for Delivery, Driver is X Stops Away) to remind customers and include tracking links and ETAs.

See: EasyRoutes Notifications

Can I balance stops evenly across several routes?

Yes. Enable Balance routes to distribute stops as evenly as possible across multiple routes/drivers while respecting other route constraints (like time windows, or item/weight limits).

See: Balance routes · How many routes?

Is Zapier available for both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web?

Yes. Zapier works with both platforms to import, sync, and automate orders. See: Platform Support

Yes. Add/remove stops, drag‑and‑drop stops to reorder them, change drivers or schedules, and re‑optimize at any time.

See: Edit Routes
