Yes. Workflows automate delivery tasks inside EasyRoutes, while Zapier connects EasyRoutes to external systems. Together, they create powerful end-to-end automation. For instance, a Workflow might create a route when orders arrive, while Zapier sends Slack alerts or updates a Google Sheet whenever stops on that route are completed. This layered approach ensures internal and external processes stay in sync.
See: Workflows Overview
To import BigCommerce orders, export them in CSV format from your BigCommerce dashboard. Then log into EasyRoutes, go to Orders → Import new CSV, and upload the file. EasyRoutes will map fields like customer name, address, and items. Once imported, your orders will appear as pins on the map, ready for route optimization.
EasyRoutes doesn't currently offer a customer-facing "pick a new date" self-service tool. In practice, customers reply to your delivery notifications or use the contact details on their branded tracking page to reach you; you then move the order with Send to another route and send the Rescheduled notification with the new details.
Delivery Ratings and tracking pages keep the customer in the loop throughout. This flow is the same in EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Capping how many orders a customer can book into a given slot is handled by your date picker app at checkout (for example, Pickeasy's order limits), not by EasyRoutes. On the planning side, EasyRoutes helps you balance the resulting workload: filter orders by delivery date and time window, then split them across multiple routes or drivers, and the optimizer sequences each route to respect its windows. Together they keep slots controlled and routes balanced. This applies to both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
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.

You can upgrade or downgrade anytime from EasyRoutes Settings. Plan changes take effect immediately and we’ll prorate charges/credits for the remainder of your current cycle. If you also adjust the number of driver seats, those changes are prorated as well. Billing is handled via Shopify (EasyRoutes for Shopify) or Stripe (EasyRoutes for Web), depending on your product.
Yes. There's no separate "white-glove" mode, but the pieces are built in. Use Driver Tasks to give drivers an in-home checklist (unpack, assemble, position, remove packaging) and require it before the stop is marked complete, and allow extra Time per stop or a longer per-stop service time so the schedule reflects the added work.
Drivers capture photos of the finished setup and a signature as proof. Works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Driver Tasks · Route Options
Yes. You can reshape a zone after creating it — open Settings > Delivery Zones, select the zone, adjust its points on the map, then save your changes. You can also rename it or change its route colour at any time. Updated boundaries apply the next time you use that zone to select orders for a route. Works in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
See: Delivery Zones
Yes. EasyRoutes allows you to centralize multi-platform order management. You can import Squarespace orders via CSV or Zapier while also syncing Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or Wix orders into the same account. This lets you plan optimized delivery routes that combine orders from different sales channels.
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. 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. You can add breaks before optimization (by setting the planned break time) or after creating a route (by inserting a break and positioning it between stops). Breaks appear to drivers as a stop in the sequence, and when a break is included in a route, EasyRoutes will recalculate remaining ETAs and the overall route duration. This is useful for lunch windows, mandatory rest periods, or overnight pauses. For multi‑day itineraries, consider splitting different days into separate routes, or using an overnight strategy so customer ETAs align with actual delivery periods.
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. 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.
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. Use EasyRoutes Order Filters to build the batch you want to route. Common filters include delivery date ranges, order/fulfillment status, tags, and geography (postal/ZIP code, city, country, or your own delivery zones). Filters apply to Shopify orders and any imported/manual stops so a single route can cover precisely the area and schedule you intend.
See: Order Filters
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.
See: Route Options · EasyRoutes 101: Route Optimization & Route Options
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.
See: Max route duration · Priority Stops
Yes. Programmatically modify routes and stops using the Routes API — update stop status (delivered/attempted), change assignments, dispatch routes to drivers, or edit route options, then re‑optimize as needed. When your store uses EasyRoutes notifications, status changes made through the API follow the same rules and can send customer updates and refresh ETAs. This applies to 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.
When no one is available, the driver documents the drop instead of collecting a signature: up to four photos of where the order was left, an optional note (e.g., "left behind the side gate"), and the GPS location and timestamp captured automatically. All of it is saved to the stop's proof-of-delivery record.
You can make a photo and/or note mandatory to mark the stop delivered, and display these items on the customer's tracking page for confidence. Available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
Yes. Use EasyRoutes webhooks as Zap triggers to connect delivery events to apps like Google Sheets, Slack, Gmail, Twilio, HubSpot, and more. Common automations include updating a shared delivery log, notifying customer service when an attempt fails, or sending a custom message when proof of delivery posts. Zapier is supported for both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.
SMS delivery notifications use usage-based pricing by recipient country and message length. Costs are per segment (e.g., a U.S. segment is $0.043 USD). Longer messages or those with emojis/Unicode may use multiple segments. You fund a prepaid SMS balance and can enable auto-top-ups so notifications continue without interruption.
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?
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. Workflows are available across both EasyRoutes platforms, but their triggers and available actions are tailored to fit the data each platform provides. On Shopify, Workflows integrate tightly with orders, fulfillments, and Shopify-specific tags or delivery methods. On EasyRoutes for Web, you can use Workflows to automate processes based on imported orders (CSV uploads or API connections) and route activity.
This flexibility means that whether you’re using Shopify to manage your e-commerce orders or relying on EasyRoutes for Web to handle deliveries from another system, you can still benefit from automation. Businesses that operate across multiple platforms can use Workflows to keep all of their delivery processes running consistently.
