Route: Post‑Purchase Platform

Edit: A representative of the company has reached out almost 500 days later and resolved this billing issue and offered an additional incentive for my brand. I was told they have undergone new management which i'm impressed about so far. The decision to edit this review was on my behalf not Routes.

可怕的公司! !用户注意。我有一个通过led credit card for over 400 days and this company CONTINUES to try to charge the account and bill me when I have told this company MULTIPLE times to remove me from their services and stop billing me, yet they continue to bill a card thats been closed for over a year!! Customer service says they can't remove the app until the bill is paid!!! Shopify customer service please take note of these practices and please launch an investigaton! This is ridiculous this company is trying to make your customers responsible for paying a bill after repeated requests to cancel. They send me billing invoices everyday in my email and is becoming harassing at this point! Shopify please please please investigate this company, something is very unethical here! :(

UPDATE- Aubri from Route reached out and fixed the issue. Works now.

Does not work. Worked for the first month and now the route check box doesn't even appear. Tried various settings and nothing seems to work.

Edit - Since writing this review we continue to have issues. Route again asked us to replace an order at our expense and promised us reimbursement within the week, it is now going on 2 weeks with daily follow ups where we are repeatedly lied to and told that the money has been paid when it in fact hasn't. They are falsifying information in the dashboard and not making payments even when they say they are - extremely fraudulent and dishonest company. STEER CLEAR UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR MONEY STOLEN. We have since found an honest and efficient company who offers far better and honest service and actually reimburses your money in a timely manner or reimburses direct to the customer.

诚实地发现整个disappoin经验ting. When we signed up we didn’t realise we pay for the replacements and reimbursements up front, they refund direct from your Shopify store and create unpaid replacement orders without notifying you, meanwhile Route continues to debit their fee, so we are essentially paying them to provide the service for them and they don’t even tell you that they process claims in this sneaky manner. They debit their money every 2 - 3 days, but then we wait sometimes months for reimbursements so we are out of pocket for long periods. We don’t have an account manager and contact is complicated and confusing. We have also recently learned that we are charged nearly a $50 fee per reimbursement. We were never told this at time of sign up and were not given options. We will be looking for a more honest and reliable provider. Also, expect the customers premiums to go up if your customers actually make claims. Apparently you are penalised for using the claim service.

Route has been an indispensable asset for our business, providing a solution to the nightmare of getting reimbursements from our shipping provider, which was previously a significant challenge for both us and our customers. With Route, the process of obtaining a new product or reimbursement has become incredibly simple and easy.

One of the biggest issues we faced was product damage during transit, resulting in lost profit. Thankfully, Route has provided us with an effective solution to recover these losses, whether it be for damaged, lost, or stolen products. This has significantly improved our customer satisfaction and resulted in repeat customers.

It's worth mentioning that some negative reviews we've seen about Route are due to poor business management from the company they were purchased from. As someone who handles all the emails about incidents that occur, I can confirm that this is often the case. It's essential to understand that partnering with Route is a two-way street. Both parties need to take responsibility and do their part to ensure customer satisfaction.

Overall, we are incredibly grateful for the convenience and efficiency that Route has brought to our business, and we highly recommend it to any business owner struggling with shipping-related challenges.

This app is annoying calling and emailing with unsolicited requests, refusing to respond by email, they only want to talk over the phone, forgetting it is online business, ecommerce - digital economy.

They do not adhere to Shopify framework, they want you out of your Shop to create a login on their side while most of the app out there would use Shopify's framework starting with seamless and pleasant login form within the Shopify. So this is not a native Shopify app but some interface to their system, you have to go elsewhere, maintain yet another account (and accounting!).

Sales tactics are annoying and marketing collateral is unhelpful defeating the purpose of the online business, which is... online! Phone books are obsolete!

We never asked for anything of them, somehow they bought our address and been sending unsolicited offers and calling us pretty annoyingly.

We refuse to create accounts outside of Shopify and uninstall apps not supporting Shopify's SSO, demanding creating accounts on their end. We also refuse to take unsolicited calls and in general despise all spam.

Any "paracite" app leaching off Shopify sellers' hard work should not be placing unreasonable demands or burdens on Shopify sellers, should be thinking how to adhere to Shopify frameworks and be more usable and user friendly. Apps that demand a separate login and a credit card outside of Shopify should be banned from the Shopify App Store.
