Yes. You can cap a route by Max route duration, Max stops per route, and Max items per route so optimization never exceeds your operational limits. These constraints shape ETAs, the stop sequence, and whether additional routes are required. Enable or edit these limits from the Route Options panel before creating routes, or open any route and choose Edit route options to apply changes and re‑optimize. This feature functions the same way in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Vehicle Profiles let you save details about the vehicles you deliver with — type, make, model, and fuel economy. Create them from the Drivers & Vehicles area, then assign a profile to a route (or set one as a Route Option so it applies to new routes). Once assigned, you can track route metrics per vehicle, filter Analytics by vehicle, and the assigned vehicle shows in the driver app. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Vehicle Profiles
Yes. From any route, use the checkboxes to select one or more stops, then click the bulk actions bar and choose Send to another route. You can also open a Route Group and drag stops from one route to another within the group. After moving, click Save and (optionally) Re‑optimize to update the stop order and ETAs. This workflow works the same in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Use this to balance workloads mid‑day, handle late additions, or consolidate leftovers onto a cleanup route.
Importing Wix orders is easy. From your Wix dashboard, export orders as a CSV file, then log into EasyRoutes and upload the file via the “Import new CSV” option. EasyRoutes automatically maps order fields like name, address, and quantity to ensure your orders are routed correctly. Once imported, your orders appear as pins on the EasyRoutes map for route planning. See: Importing Orders from Wix
Yes. EasyRoutes supports Squarespace orders through multiple integration methods. The simplest way is exporting orders from your Squarespace dashboard to CSV and importing them into EasyRoutes. For automation, you can connect Squarespace with Zapier to send orders directly into EasyRoutes, or build custom workflows with the EasyRoutes API. This ensures Squarespace merchants can take advantage of the same delivery optimization and tracking tools available to other platforms. See: Squarespace Integration
Yes. The EasyRoutes Routes API accepts imported stops (customer details, address, items, notes) so you can bring orders from non‑Shopify sources into EasyRoutes. After importing, you can create new routes, add the stops to existing routes, assign drivers, and dispatch. This works for both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web and complements CSV import when you need automation.
EasyRoutes integrates with Shopify fulfillments so your order system stays in sync. Marking stops Ready for Delivery, Out for Delivery, Delivered, or Attempted updates the Shopify fulfillment accordingly and adds the EasyRoutes tracking number/URL. Depending on your configuration, Shopify or EasyRoutes sends the customer emails/SMS. Partial items and multi‑item orders are supported; admins can review fulfillment history on the Shopify order and in EasyRoutes route/stop details.
EasyRoutes Workflows support a wide variety of actions that cover the full delivery process, from order intake to customer communication. You can automatically generate new routes based on incoming orders, apply filters (such as only including orders tagged with “Priority” or due on a specific date), and dispatch routes directly to the correct driver. This level of automation means you can build a Workflow that matches your exact delivery process, no matter how simple or complex.
See: Workflow Actions
Yes. Mark COD orders and include collection instructions in stop notes. Drivers can record payment received using notes and attach custom notes containing any COD amounts collected. Back at the office, export routes/stops to reconcile COD activity. This workflow is supported across EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Cash on Delivery
If a Shopify order arrives without a valid shipping address, EasyRoutes highlights it so you can fix the address before planning. Edit the order in Shopify (preferred for data accuracy) or add the correct address details to the stop in EasyRoutes, then refresh and route. For pickup orders, set the address to your store or pickup point so drivers and staff can see the correct location on the route map and in documents. Address completeness ensures accurate ETAs, navigation, and proof‑of‑delivery records.
See: My order does not have a shipping address—how do I add one?
Zapier is designed to be used without coding. To integrate EasyRoutes, you typically select “Webhooks by Zapier” as a trigger, paste a webhook URL into EasyRoutes, and then connect it to actions like sending an email or updating a spreadsheet. All steps are handled through a simple, click-based interface. This makes automation accessible to any team member, not just developers. See: EasyRoutes Zapier
Drivers can capture multiple photos, obtain a customer e‑signature, and add notes at the stop. These items are stored with timestamps and the completion context, and they’re visible to admins on the route and stop record. When enabled in EasyRoutes Settings, customers can see PoD on tracking pages and in notifications.
See: Proof of Delivery
Yes. With Premium or Enterprise plans, turn on live tracking from EasyRoutes Settings → Driver settings. You’ll see a live GPS pin, breadcrumb path, current/next stop, and real‑time status updates on each route’s Tracking tab. Ensure drivers grant Always/Precise location permissions in the Delivery Driver app. Route Groups let you monitor multiple drivers at once.
By default, CSV imports are static snapshots. To achieve real-time updates, you can set up Zapier workflows or use the EasyRoutes API. For example, if an order’s address changes in WooCommerce, Zapier or a custom API connection can automatically push that update into EasyRoutes, ensuring drivers always have the latest information. See: Zapier Guide
Yes. If a driver is seasonal or temporarily inactive, they can be temporarily deactivated until required again. The driver’s profile, history, and assignments remain in your account, but they cannot receive routes or sign in until re‑activated. This helps control costs without losing configuration.
Manage seats from the Drivers & Vehicles tab of the EasyRoutes navigation menu. Works in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. Both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web can surface proof of delivery (PoD) to customers. Enable PoD display on tracking pages and decide which delivery events should send links via email/SMS. When a driver completes a stop, PoD is attached to that stop and becomes available to customers according to your settings. Admins always see PoD in route and stop details for auditing or future reference.
Yes. From any route you can dispatch to a specific driver, or share a route link that allows self‑assignment by your driver pool. Assigned drivers receive the route in the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app (iOS/Android) with turn‑by‑turn directions via their preferred navigation app. For busy days, combine dispatch with Route Groups to release multiple routes at once and monitor progress on a single screen. This behaviour is consistent across EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

Yes. From any route, use the checkboxes to select one or more stops, then click the bulk actions bar and choose Send to another route. You can also open a Route Group and drag stops from one route to another within the group. After moving, click Save and (optionally) Re‑optimize to update the stop order and ETAs. This workflow works the same in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Use this to balance workloads mid‑day, handle late additions, or consolidate leftovers onto a cleanup route.
Yes. From the EasyRoutes Customer Notifications settings you can enable/disable templates per event and edit their content. Common events include Ready for Delivery, Out for Delivery, Driver is X Stops Away (configurable), Delivered, Missed Delivery, plus Scheduled and Rescheduled notices. Templates can differ for Shopify orders vs. imported/manual stops to match your data and workflow.
Yes. EasyRoutes supports pickups alongside deliveries in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. Add pickup stops the same way as deliveries (Shopify orders, CSV/API imports, or manual stops). Set the pickup location (store/warehouse/customer) and, if needed, add instructions or required items to the stop notes.
Pickups appear in the route in sequence with other stops, on printed documents, and in the driver app. If only pickups are needed, create a pickup‑only route and dispatch to the driver as usual.
To sign in, add the driver to your EasyRoutes account (Shopify or Web) with their phone number. The driver installs the app and enters that number; we send a one‑time SMS code to complete sign‑in. Routes assigned to that number appear automatically. If a driver changes phone numbers, update their driver profile so dispatch and permissions match.

No, you don’t need to be a developer to take advantage of Workflows. The Workflows feature is designed to be accessible to non-technical users by using a visual, menu-based interface. You simply select a scheduling frequency, define any conditions (like “only include orders tagged Local Delivery”), and choose an action (for example, “create and dispatch a route”).
This no-code design makes Workflows similar to popular automation tools like Zapier or Shopify Flow, where anyone can build powerful automations just by clicking and selecting from available options. That said, more advanced users can extend Workflows with APIs or webhooks to create complex, custom integrations, giving both beginners and power users maximum flexibility.

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. Enable automatic dispatch so newly created routes with a scheduled start time are assigned and sent to the chosen driver immediately — no extra clicks. Use this for recurring daily runs or integrations that create routes programmatically. You can still edit or un-dispatch a route before start time if plans change.
Analytics reflects new data shortly after drivers complete or update stops in the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app. Because updates depend on device connectivity and permissions, you may see a brief delay if a driver is offline; once the device reconnects, metrics catch up automatically. For the most granular timeline, open the route and review the Activity Feed, which lists each delivery event as it occurred.
This live‑update behaviour applies to both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. If numbers look stale, refresh the page or adjust your date/driver filters and try again.
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.
