EasyRoutes doesn't have a setting that hard-locks a stop to one named person, but you can require and document the hand-off. Add a required Driver Task — a text field for the recipient's name, or a checkbox confirming "handed to named recipient" — that must be completed to mark the stop delivered, and note the required recipient in a stop note so the driver knows who to look for.
Pair it with a required e-signature so the signer is captured too. 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
For reliable live tracking, drivers should: (1) sign in to EasyRoutes Delivery Driver; (2) allow Always/Allow all the time location access; (3) enable Precise location; and (4) keep battery optimization from restricting the app (disable aggressive battery saver if needed). These settings apply on both iOS and Android and can be checked from device Settings.
See: Real-Time Driver Location Tracking · Troubleshooting mobile issues
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.

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.
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.
If a scanned code doesn’t match the stop, the app shows it in yellow rather than the green used for a confirmed match, so the driver can tell right away. Non-matching scans can still be saved, and drivers can flag a scan issue from the alert icon on the Add Barcode screen, which sends a report to the route planner instead of a matched scan. Works the same in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. From EasyRoutes Settings → Driver settings, define what drivers can access on mobile. Options include letting drivers manually re‑order stops, re‑optimize the remaining sequence mid‑route, and whether to show sensitive customer data (e.g., email, phone, notes). These controls apply to both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web so you can tailor the experience to your policies.
See: Configure what is shown to the driver · Driver‑side re‑optimize
No. Barcode scanning uses the camera on your driver’s existing iOS or Android device, so there’s no need to buy dedicated scanners or hardware. Drivers scan directly from the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app, with a built-in flash option for low light and a manual-entry fallback if a code won’t read. It supports common linear formats (UPC, EAN, Code 128, and more) and 2D codes like QR and Data Matrix. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

Yes. EasyRoutes processes order and customer information to plan routes, power tracking/notifications, and provide proof‑of‑delivery records. We protect this data with modern security practices and retain it according to your account activity and legal requirements. We do not sell personal information; limited sharing may occur with subprocessors strictly to operate EasyRoutes, as described in our privacy policy.
For data removal requests, contact support and we’ll guide you through available options.

Yes. After importing Squarespace orders into EasyRoutes (via CSV, Zapier, or API), they can be used with Workflows. For example, you could set up a Workflow that automatically generates delivery routes at a set time each day from all Squarespace orders and dispatches them to drivers. This helps Squarespace merchants automate repetitive tasks and maintain smooth operations.
See: EasyRoutes Workflows
EasyRoutes helps protect perishable and temperature-sensitive goods by keeping product moving and time on the road to a minimum. Cap each route with Max route duration and Max stops per route so no run exceeds your safe window, assign delivery time windows to fragile stops, and let optimization sequence and split orders across drivers for faster dispatch. This works the same in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Route Options · Time Windows
From any route or the Orders page, click the + Add button under the map and choose Custom stop, then fill in the stop details with a valid address — EasyRoutes auto-fills matches from your Address Book as you type. Tick “Save to address book” to reuse a frequent stop later, and re-optimize if you’d like it slotted into the best position. It’s the same flow whether you’re on EasyRoutes for Shopify or EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Add a custom stop · Address Book
Yes. From the Routes page or an individual route view, export to CSV for all relevant route data points. Exports include stop details, timestamps, driver assignments, and URLs to related proof of delivery (photos/signature/notes). Use these files for accounting, customer service follow‑up, or analysis in spreadsheets or external tools. Exports are supported in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
The WebToffee “Order Export & Import for WooCommerce” plugin is one of the recommended tools for exporting WooCommerce orders to CSV. It lets you configure export settings like separating line items, which ensures EasyRoutes can correctly map customer and order details. Other export tools may work, but WebToffee is the most commonly documented and tested option.
Yes. To reprint, open the route, click Print, and enable Packing slips and/or Packing labels. You can send the batch to a printer again or save a fresh PDF. Reprinting uses your current template settings — if you change variables or sizes in Settings → Packing Slips & Labels, the new output will reflect those changes.
If the route has been archived from your EasyRoutes account, restore it before printing. This reprint flow works the same in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Analytics reports are viewed in the dashboard and exported on demand — open any breakdown and use Export to copy the data or download a CSV. There isn’t a built-in scheduler that emails recurring reports automatically. If you need that, you can export on a cadence yourself, or use the EasyRoutes API and webhooks (with a tool like Zapier) to pull delivery data into your own reporting. Applies to both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Analytics
Yes. Every route has a driver‑friendly manifest in the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver mobile app, and a printable version from the web. Use any route’s Print menu to generate a compact summary, packing slips/labels, and an optional inventory list. Print for clipboards or Save as PDF for digital sharing. Works the same in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. BigCommerce orders can be routed alongside orders from Shopify, WooCommerce, Squarespace, or other platforms. You can import or sync all orders into one EasyRoutes account, then generate optimized routes across them. This helps centralize multi-platform delivery operations.
Yes. On Premium/Enterprise plans, you can send SMS notifications for key delivery events (e.g., Ready for Delivery, Out for Delivery, Driver is X stops away, Delivered, Missed Delivery, and optionally Scheduled/Rescheduled). Messages are billed per segment based on the recipient’s country. Customize content and variables in the template editor, and preview with example data before enabling. Pair SMS with email and customer tracking links for full visibility.
Instead of paying for individual drivers, with EasyRoutes you just pay for a driver seat and can put any driver in your roster into that seat.For example, you could have a plan with two driver seats, but have four drivers in your driver roster. You can easily change which two drivers are active at any given time. And, if you have a busy delivery weekend, you can add seats for the additional drivers for that weekend, and then remove the seats after you're done with them. We prorate the charges and credits for upgrading and downgrading based on the changes in the number of seats on your plan.
Yes. If a driver’s phone was offline or a photo needs to be re‑added, open the stop in EasyRoutes and upload PoD from your browser. The new items join the stop’s timeline with timestamps and appear in exports and tracking (subject to your visibility settings). This works across both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Manually upload PoD
Yes. EasyRoutes is designed to unify multi-platform delivery operations. You can import Wix orders and combine them with orders from Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or other sources. All orders appear in one dashboard, so you can generate optimized multi-stop routes across platforms.
See: EasyRoutes for Wix
Access the Drivers & Vehicles tab from the EasyRoutes navigation menu, click Add driver, and enter the driver’s name and phone number. EasyRoutes sends the invite; the driver installs the Delivery Driver app and signs in with an SMS code. Assign a seat to activate them and dispatch their first route.
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
Open a stop’s Actions menu (the three-dot icon) and mark it as High or Low priority, or select several stops and set their priority in bulk. When a route has limits (like max stops, items, or duration), High Priority stops are included first and Low Priority ones are dropped first. You can also auto-apply priority through order import rules. Priority stops are a Premium and Enterprise feature, in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
