Frequently Asked Questions

Get quick answers to the most common questions about EasyRoutes—setup, routes, drivers, and more.

How quickly can I get started?

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.

See: EasyRoutes Getting Started Guide

Can EasyRoutes integrate with other business tools?

Yes. Integrate EasyRoutes with your existing stack in two ways: (1) programmatically via the Routes API to import stops, create/dispatch routes, and update status; and (2) event‑driven with webhooks and Zapier to push delivery events into Sheets, Slack, email, ERPs/CRMs, or custom endpoints. These options are available for both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

See: API Getting Started Guide · Integrate webhooks with Zapier

How accurate are ETAs?

EasyRoutes calculates ETAs from drive times and your configured service time per stop, adjusting for start/end locations, stop priorities, and time windows. As drivers complete stops, ETAs refresh automatically based on actual timing. The best results come from accurate addresses, realistic service times, and consistent driver start times.

Customers see ETAs on tracking pages and (optionally) receive updates via email/SMS.

See: Route Scheduling & ETAs

Does EasyRoutes work internationally?

Yes. EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web work in many countries around the world. Address geocoding, map tiles, and driving directions are available globally, and core features — route optimization, driver app, tracking links, and proof of delivery — operate the same. In certain regions, map data or SMS availability may differ based on local providers.

Before rollout, confirm your country is supported and run a quick pilot to validate address formats (postal codes, provinces) and notification deliverability.

See: Unsupported Countries

What support options are available?

We offer a self‑serve Help Center with step‑by‑step guides and videos, plus email support from our team during business hours (ET). Most questions are resolved the same business day. Accounts on the Enterprise plan receive prioritized responses and onboarding help. For incident updates, check our public status page; for billing and plan questions, see the pricing page.

See: Help Center · EasyRoutes Pricing

Is EasyRoutes multilingual?

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

Can I use EasyRoutes at multiple locations?

Yes. EasyRoutes supports multi‑location operations. You can set unique start/end locations on routes (store, warehouse, driver home base), segment orders by delivery zone or location tags, and dispatch drivers from different hubs on the same day. Route Groups make it easy to manage several routes per location and monitor all drivers together.

This applies across EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web.

See: Delivering from multiple locations or warehouses

How does EasyRoutes pricing work?

EasyRoutes uses a flexible, seat‑based model. Choose a plan (Standard, Premium, Enterprise) and activate the number of driver seats you need; you’re billed only for active seats. You can adjust seats or change tiers at any time, and SMS messaging — if enabled — is charged per message segment. Both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web use the same pricing model.

See: Pricing · Pricing & Plans FAQ

Does EasyRoutes work without Shopify?

Yes. If you don’t use Shopify, EasyRoutes for Web provides the same core workflow — order intake, route planning, dispatch, tracking, proof of delivery, and analytics. Bring orders in via CSV uploads, the Routes API, or webhooks/Zapier. You can also mix non‑Shopify orders with Shopify orders if you operate via multiple e-commerce channels.

Customer tracking pages and notifications work the same, and drivers use the same EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app.

How secure is EasyRoutes?

EasyRoutes protects order and customer information with modern security practices. Traffic between your browser, the driver app, and our services is encrypted in transit; stored data is encrypted at rest. Access to accounts and APIs is token‑based and limited to the minimum required to operate features like routing, tracking, and notifications. Payments are handled by Shopify or other PCI‑compliant providers — EasyRoutes does not store card data.

We do not sell personal information. Limited sharing with subprocessors may occur solely to operate EasyRoutes as described in our Privacy Policy. Contact support if you have questions about data retention or deletion requests.

See: Privacy Policy

Does EasyRoutes require a contract?

No long‑term contract is required. You can start on a monthly plan, adjust driver seats as your team changes, and upgrade or downgrade tiers at any time. When you change plans mid‑cycle, EasyRoutes automatically prorates the charges so you only pay for what you use.

See: How does prorated billing work?

Is there a free trial?

Yes. You can try any plan — including Premium features like real‑time driver tracking and notifications — for 14 days at no cost. Trials are available on both products (Shopify and Web). During the trial you can invite drivers, dispatch routes, and send tracking/PoD to validate the full workflow before choosing a tier and seat count.

What is EasyRoutes and who is it for?

EasyRoutes combines route planning, driver dispatch, live tracking, and proof of delivery in one system. Teams select orders (from Shopify or external sources), create optimized routes with start/end locations and options (time windows, service times), then dispatch to the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app.

Admins monitor routes in the browser, view ETAs and driver location (Premium/Enterprise), and share branded tracking pages and notifications with customers. Proof of delivery items — photos, eSignature, notes — are captured in the field and visible on the stop record. EasyRoutes is designed for SMBs and delivery fleets of any size across industries.

Can I reprint packing slips or labels?

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.

See: Printing delivery routes

Can I change label sizes?

Yes. EasyRoutes supports multiple label sizes. Pick a base size and text scale in EasyRoutes Settings → Packing Slips & Labels, then confirm your printer uses the matching paper (e.g., 4×6) with an appropriate print scale.

  • If text runs long, try a larger font scale or different label size.
  • If alignment is off, ensure paper size matches and adjust browser/driver scale.
  • You can print to PDF first to verify layout before sending to the printer.

See: How do I print packing labels?

Can I export packing slip data instead of printing?

Yes. You can keep slips digital. From the route’s Print menu, select Packing slips and choose your browser/OS option to Save as PDF. This yields a single file ordered by the route for easy sharing.

This is supported in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web and is useful for handing off to 3PLs or warehouse teams that prefer tablet-based picking.

See: How do I create a PDF of my route?

Can I print packing slips in bulk?

Yes. EasyRoutes prints all slips for the selected route in one batch. From the route page, choose Print → enable Packing slips → print or save as PDF. Slips are ordered to match the route so packing and loading follow the driver’s sequence.

This bulk flow is available in both EasyRoutes for Shopify and EasyRoutes for Web. If you maintain custom slip templates in Shopify, you can also push orders to Order Printer Pro and print them in route order from there.

See: Printing delivery routes · Packing Slips

Can I customize my packing slips?

Yes. Packing slips are configurable so teams can show the fields drivers or packers need. In EasyRoutes Settings → Packing Slips & Labels you can: include a logo, select variables (customer details, order items, notes), set text sizes, and tweak headers and helper text. Print slips directly from any route.

Note: Some variables are only available when printing one slip per stop vs. one per item. Adjust your preference in the Print Preview if you need item-level detail.

See: Customizing Packing Slips

Can I print labels for each package?

Yes. From any route, click Print → select Packing labels. You can output one label per stop or per order item (ideal for multiple packages). Configure label contents and sizing in Settings → Packing Slips & Labels. Use 4×6 thermal, A4/Letter sheets, or another size and scale as needed.

Shopify & Web: The label workflow is the same across products. For advanced templating on Shopify, you can send orders to Order Printer Pro from the Send to app dropdown, which can generate labels in route order.

See: How do I print packing labels?

Is the Activity Feed visible to drivers?

No. The Activity Feed is an internal operations log available to EasyRoutes admins and dispatchers. Drivers use the EasyRoutes Delivery Driver app to view assigned routes, update stop statuses, and capture proof of delivery; these events will appear in the Activity Feed for admins, but drivers do not access the account‑wide feed. This separation keeps internal data and audit trails restricted to management.
