What it is
Route Track gives merchants branded order tracking across email, SMS, the web, and the Route app. Automated messages cover eight points from order confirmation through delivery, and tracking pages can use a merchant’s logo, colors, and messaging. Route connects to more than 1,100 carriers worldwide, including UPS, FedEx, DHL, and USPS. Its API covers orders, shipments, tracking, protection, and resolution workflows; listed commerce integrations include Shopify, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce, WooCommerce, and Adobe Commerce Cloud. Personalized product recommendations draw on buyer profiles and order history, but are available only to Shopify and BigCommerce merchants on Pro or Custom plans. The Standard plan is free, billed $0/month, and lists the full platform, custom configuration, consumer-funded pricing, and no monthly or hidden fees. A shopper app for iOS and Android supports visual tracking, package protection, returns, and exchanges. Route states that data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and that it is SOC 2 certified and GDPR and CCPA/CPRA compliant.
