No — routes are single‑driver to keep tracking, ETAs, and proof‑of‑delivery accurate. If two or more drivers are needed, split the stops into multiple routes (or create a new route for leftovers) and dispatch each separately. You can also publish a route without assigning a driver, and share a self‑assign link so someone from your pool can claim it when ready.
Delivery Analytics provides a consolidated view of your operations across both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. Key metrics include total stops and routes, completion rate, attempted/missed deliveries, average delivery time, and per‑driver performance summaries. Use it to compare activity over time, spot bottlenecks, and validate operational changes.
You can filter by time period and specific drivers to focus on a team or individual, then export results to CSV for reporting. For event‑level detail (e.g., when a stop changed status), open the route’s Activity Feed. Analytics refreshes as new delivery events are recorded, so the dashboard stays current throughout the day.
Yes. Alongside EasyRoutes-native barcodes, drivers can scan existing product or order barcodes and QR codes — including supplier UPC, EAN, Code 128, and 2D formats like QR and Data Matrix — using the phone camera. Externally generated codes are captured and stored with the stop for reference, though match validation (the green/yellow confirmation) applies to EasyRoutes-native codes. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. Your customer tracking page carries your branding — add your logo and adjust the look from EasyRoutes Settings > Order Tracking, and choose which order details and delivery information customers see. Paired with your notification settings, customers get a consistent, branded experience with live ETAs and driver location. This is separate from your email/SMS template customization. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Order tracking pages
Yes. You can integrate EasyRoutes with ERPs, CRMs, WMS, and custom apps using our API and webhooks. Typical use cases include importing stops from non‑Shopify channels, syncing delivery status and proof‑of‑delivery back to your system of record, and powering external analytics collection. The same platform supports both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
EasyRoutes builds efficient routes by combining your inputs (orders/stops and addresses) with constraints and preferences. It accounts for start and end locations, optional time windows, per‑stop service times, speed factors, and limits such as maximum duration, stops, items, or weight. You can create multiple routes at once, balance stops evenly, or optimize for the fewest routes that still meet your limits. After reviewing the map and stop list, drag‑and‑drop stops to make manual adjustments, then re‑optimize to apply changes.

When you upload a spreadsheet, an AI assistant reads your headers and proposes an initial mapping of each column to the matching EasyRoutes field — address, name, items, and more. Review the import preview, and if anything’s off, click Edit stops to reassign any column by hand (including addresses split across multiple columns). Import the same layout again later and EasyRoutes remembers your previous mapping. Available for CSV import in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. EasyRoutes is built to replace and extend Shopify Local Delivery. It reads your existing Local Delivery orders — including checkout delivery instructions — and adds route optimization, driver dispatch, live tracking, customer notifications, and proof of delivery on top. Install from the Shopify App Store and your orders sync automatically, so there's no manual re-entry. The same routing tools are also available in EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Shopify Local Delivery migration guide · Local Delivery instructions
Yes. In both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web you can keep route history tidy by archiving routes you no longer need to manage daily, or permanently delete them. Use the checkboxes to select desired routes from the Routes page, and use the actions menu to archive or delete. Archiving preserves stop records, proof of delivery (photos/signature/notes), and analytics, so you can still search and export later. Deleting removes the route from Route History — make sure to export any reports you need first.
Use filters on the Routes page to show active, completed, or archived runs when you’re reconciling a period.
See: How do I archive or delete routes from my route history?
There isn’t a dedicated “lock” toggle to pin one stop to a fixed position. Instead, you control sequence by arranging stops manually with drag-and-drop, and that order stays until you choose to re-optimize (which recalculates the sequence). To keep a stop first or last, set it as your start or end location; to influence inclusion order, use Priority stops. Applies to both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Editing routes · Priority stops
Yes. Fulfilling an order from EasyRoutes creates a Shopify fulfillment that includes the EasyRoutes tracking number and URL. Customers see the link on the order status page and in applicable Shopify notifications. If templates were heavily customized, you may need to ensure the standard tracking snippet is present.
Keep product moving and time on the road low. Cap Max route duration and Max stops/items per route so no run exceeds your safe window, and let optimization split the overflow into extra routes. Use time windows and priority stops so the most temperature-sensitive orders are delivered first.
Pair the routing with physical cold-chain steps — insulated bags or coolers — and a required Driver Task to confirm handling. Works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

You don’t need to be technical to connect Squarespace with EasyRoutes. Using Zapier, you can build “if-this-then-that” workflows to automatically send Squarespace orders to EasyRoutes for route planning. For businesses that want more advanced automation, the EasyRoutes API lets developers build custom integrations and connect with other business systems. This gives you both a no-code and pro-code path to integration.
See: API Getting Started
Yes. Set a scheduled start date and time when creating or editing a route. EasyRoutes will use that schedule — plus stop time intervals and any delivery time windows — to calculate ETAs for every stop. Customers can receive their individual ETAs via branded tracking pages and optional email/SMS notifications. If plans change, simply edit the route's schedule, re‑optimize the route, and ETAs will update automatically.
Setup is quick: install EasyRoutes (Shopify) or sign in (Web), connect drivers, select orders with filters, and click Create route. Use the defaults for service times and route options, then print or dispatch to the driver app. Most trial users reach a working route within an hour, often faster with our step‑by‑step guide.
If you import orders from outside Shopify, start with a small CSV or a few manual stops to validate the flow before scaling.
Yes. You can operate from several depots in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. For each route, define the start and end locations (a store, local warehouse, or driver’s home base). Filter orders by zone or location tags, build multiple routes, and monitor all drivers together via Route Groups. Printed documents and ETAs reflect different depot travel times automatically.
Admins need an internet connection to create, edit, and dispatch routes. The EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app supports low‑connectivity situations: if a driver opens the route while online, stop data is cached locally so they can navigate, update status, and capture proof of delivery offline. The app queues events and syncs them to EasyRoutes once the device reconnects.
Yes. You can add an EasyRoutes-native QR code to your packing slips and packing labels from Settings > Packing Slips & Labels by enabling the Show QR code option and setting its position. Drivers can then scan these codes with the Delivery Driver app to confirm the right order at the right stop, and you can optionally require a successful scan before a stop is marked Delivered or Attempted. Supported in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Barcode scanning
Yes. The Time per stop route option lets you set how many minutes a driver spends at each stop — parking, walking, and handing off — so routes reflect real service time, not just drive time. Set it when creating a route, and it's applied to every stop on that route.
You can also fine-tune the service time on an individual stop from its Edit stop page when a particular delivery needs longer. Works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
You don’t need to be a developer to connect WooCommerce with EasyRoutes. Zapier provides no-code automation tools that let you push WooCommerce orders directly into EasyRoutes with just a few clicks. For businesses that want more control, the EasyRoutes API is available to build deeper integrations, such as syncing fulfillment statuses or creating custom routing rules. This gives you both no-code and pro-code options.
Yes. Both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web let you re‑optimize a route whenever plans change. Use this feature after you add or remove stops, change stop priorities, edit time windows or service times, or adjust limits like max route duration and stop limits. You can also balance stops across multiple routes first, then re‑optimize each route to tighten the sequence. If permitted in your Driver Settings, drivers may manually re‑order stops from the driver app or re‑optimize the remaining stops in their route to recalculate ETAs after mid‑route changes. For API‑driven workflows, use the Routes API to programmatically update routes and trigger re‑optimization.
See: How do I re‑optimize a route? · How do I allow drivers to re‑order stops?
Yes. EasyRoutes features customizable Vehicle Profiles for different vehicle types, as well as route capacities (e.g., item or weight limits) that can be assigned to a route so our route optimizer respects those limits. Route‑level capacity controls — such as Max items per route and Max weight per route — to prevent overloading a vehicle. Pair capacity settings with other constraints (including custom start/end locations, stop time intervals, and delivery time windows) and re‑optimize to reflect changes. For commercial navigation needs, export routes to GPX and load them onto Garmin devices that support truck‑aware routing.
See: Vehicle Profiles · Max items/weight per route · Commercial vehicles & GPX Export
Yes. One of EasyRoutes’ strengths is its ability to centralize delivery management. You can import WooCommerce orders via CSV or Zapier while also syncing Shopify, BigCommerce, or other platform orders into the same account. EasyRoutes will display all of them together so you can generate optimized routes across multiple sales channels.
See: WooCommerce Overview
EasyRoutes for Web is best suited for merchants and service providers who do not have an existing Shopify presence. Users may currently be using spreadsheets and manual processes to track orders/stops and plan delivery routes, or may be using an alternate eCommerce platform where orders/stops can be exported into a spreadsheet. We also offer an API.
Spreadsheets containing order data can quickly be imported into EasyRoutes for Web to plan and dispatch optimized delivery routes in a fraction of the time compared to manual planning methods.
See: Import orders from CSV · API: Getting Started · Zapier webhooks
Yes. EasyRoutes is built for fast‑moving operations. Select orders, click Create route, and dispatch in a few steps. When new requests arrive, add them to an active route, re‑optimize the remaining sequence, and the driver’s app updates immediately. Customers can receive status notifications and view tracking links with dynamic ETAs. Use Route Groups to coordinate multiple drivers for peak periods.
Yes. From the Routes page or an individual route, export CSV files containing stop information (customer name, address, contact fields), timing, driver assignments, and URLs to any proof of delivery items. Use these exports for customer service, accounting reconciliation, or analysis in spreadsheets and external tools.
