Go to Settings > Delivery Zones and click Create zone above the map. Use the polygon tool to click points on the map and trace your area, then click back on your first point to close the shape. Give the zone a title and pick a route colour, then save. Once created, enable the Delivery zones Route Option to limit a route to orders inside that zone. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

Yes. You can translate and brand customer‑facing tracking pages and notifications so recipients see messages in their language. EasyRoutes displays order/customer fields as they are provided by your source system (e.g., Shopify), making it straightforward to serve multilingual buyers. This applies across EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. Additionally, the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver mobile app supports automatic translations to French, Spanish, Dutch, and German on both iOS and Android devices.
See: Language options
No. Both products dispatch routes to the same EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app on iOS and Android. Drivers get identical navigation choices (Google/Apple/Waze), proof-of-delivery tools, barcode/driver tasks, and optional features like re-optimizing remaining stops or scheduled breaks — controlled by your admin settings. Any differences are admin-side only (e.g., Shopify-specific fields shown/hidden).

Workflows are available on EasyRoutes Premium and Enterprise plans. These plans are designed for businesses that need more advanced tools to handle larger delivery volumes and complex processes. On Premium and Enterprise, you not only get access to Workflows, but also other advanced features like custom notifications, vehicle profiles, real-time driver tracking, and delivery analytics.
If you’re running a small business with only a few deliveries per week, you may be fine with a Standard plan. But if your business is scaling or you want to automate as much as possible, upgrading to Premium ensures you can take advantage of Workflows. This investment pays off quickly by saving your team time, reducing manual work, and improving consistency across your delivery operations.
During import, make sure CSV columns from Xero are mapped correctly: ContactName (first name), SAAddressLine1 (address), SARegion (province/state), SAPostalCode (postal code), SACountry (country), InvoiceNumber (order name), Quantity, and Description (item details). Proper mapping ensures invoices are imported as accurate delivery stops.
See: Xero Import Guide
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.
Go to Settings > Delivery Zones and click Create zone above the map. Use the polygon tool to click points on the map and trace your area, then click back on your first point to close the shape. Give the zone a title and pick a route colour, then save. Once created, enable the Delivery zones Route Option to limit a route to orders inside that zone. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

The Activity Feed itself isn’t exported as a single file, but you can export route and stop data that reflect the same underlying events. From the Routes page, export a date range (or open a specific route) to download CSVs containing stop details, completion timestamps, driver info, and links to proof of delivery. Use the feed to identify the timeframe or routes you need, then export those records directly.
EasyRoutes offers webhook-based triggers in Zapier, such as “Route Updated” and “Stop Status Updated.” These let you automatically take action in other apps when a route changes or a driver marks a stop as delivered. For example, you can update a customer record in your CRM or notify your warehouse team when a stop is completed.
See: Zapier Setup Guide
Yes. You can generate packing slips for each stop from the route’s Print menu. Choose Packing slips to produce slips in route order, then print or save as PDF for digital handoff. Customize content (logo, variables, formatting) from EasyRoutes Settings → Packing Slips & Labels.
EasyRoutes for Shopify: Use the built-in Print Preview, or send orders to Shopify’s Order Printer/Order Printer Pro for custom templates (Order Printer Pro supports route order).
EasyRoutes for Web: Use the same Print Preview and Settings controls directly in the web app.
Yes. EasyRoutes reads Shopify Local Delivery details (including delivery instructions from checkout) and adds them to the stop for drivers. If you maintain Pickup orders and want them represented on a route — for example, to stage curbside handoff or transfer to another location — you can include them with your store or pickup address so the task appears in sequence and on printed documents.
See: Where can I see delivery instructions from a Shopify Local Delivery order?
CSV exports are static, but Zapier or API integrations let you sync real-time updates. For example, if an invoice’s payment status or address changes in Xero, the update can flow directly into EasyRoutes, keeping your drivers informed with the most accurate data.
See: Zapier Guide
Yes. EasyRoutes lets you add pickups — including returns and reusable-packaging collections — as stops on a delivery route, so drivers retrieve containers on the same run. Add them as custom/manual stops or via CSV/API, set the pickup location, and use stop notes to tell drivers what to collect. Collections appear in sequence with deliveries, on printed manifests, and in the driver app. Works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Pickup orders · Adding custom stops · Driver Tasks
CSV imports are manual, but Zapier and the EasyRoutes API let you automate the process. With Zapier, new Xero invoices can be sent directly to EasyRoutes as soon as they’re created. With the API, developers can build real-time integrations that sync orders and updates automatically, keeping your delivery pipeline fully up to date.
Invite drivers from the Drivers & Vehicles tab, then assign a driver seat to activate them. Deactivate drivers anytime to free a seat without deleting their profile or history. You can switch which people occupy seats as staffing changes — ideal for seasonal or on-call drivers. These controls are available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Customer tracking pages can display an anonymized, live driver pin so recipients can see the driver’s progress as delivery approaches. Enable the option in EasyRoutes Settings → Order tracking, and use delivery notifications (email/SMS) to send tracking links automatically. When live location is unavailable (e.g., permissions off), the page still shows status updates and ETAs based on route progress.
See: Real-Time Driver Location Tracking · Customizable Order Tracking Pages
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.

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.
EasyRoutes pricing combines your plan tier with the number of driver seats in your current plan. Keep any number of drivers in your roster, then activate only the seats you need for your current delivery schedule. If demand spikes, add seats for a few days and deactivate later — billing automatically prorates so you pay for just the days your account contained additional seats. Seat management works the same on Shopify and Web.

Yes. In addition to taking photos in‑app, drivers can attach images from the phone’s gallery when you allow this option. It’s especially useful when a photo was captured by the camera app while offline; the driver adds it later, and EasyRoutes syncs the proof and timestamps once connectivity returns.
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.
Drivers can install the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android) using the official links provided in our Help Center. The app works with both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web accounts; once added as a driver, sign in using the phone number on file and the SMS code sent to that device. After dispatch, routes appear automatically in the app and can also be opened from the push notification's shared route link.
See: Where can I download the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app?
Yes. When you create multiple routes together, EasyRoutes groups them so you can monitor all active drivers in a single view. The Route Group page shows color‑coded pins, per‑route progress, and live stop updates. Use this view to coordinate dispatch, answer customer inquiries, and rebalance work if needed by moving stops between routes.
Yes — indirectly, by cutting the miles you drive. Route optimization sequences stops into the shortest efficient path and consolidates orders into fewer, fuller routes, which lowers distance, fuel burn, and emissions. Analytics tracks route distance and drive time, and with Vehicle Profiles you can break results down by vehicle and compare periods to see the reduction over time. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Analytics · Route Options
Yes. When real‑time tracking is enabled, customer tracking pages can show an anonymized, live GPS pin as the driver approaches (configurable between 1 and 10 stops away). Turn on live location in EasyRoutes Settings → Driver settings, and enable the customer display option in EasyRoutes Settings → Order tracking. This capability is available across EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. For flexible fleets, create a self‑assign link so any active driver can claim the route from the link. This is useful for contractor pools or last‑minute coverage — whoever taps the link first becomes the assigned driver. You can share links in SMS, WhatsApp, or Slack and revoke them if needed.
