I granted Route collaborator access to install their app on my Shopify website. During this process, the widget broke my checkout button. When a customer went to checkout, it opened a file instead of leading to the checkout page. This went unnoticed for quite some time and negatively impacted my sales. Additionally, a Route cashback promotion was added to my widget without my approval, which could have caused further losses. These issues are unacceptable, especially given the trust I placed in the Route team. Based on these experiences, I do not feel confident recommending this app. I hope Route provides clearer guidance to their installation team to prevent similar problems in the future.
Hello--my name is Adam. I lead our implementation teams here at Route. I am very sorry to hear about this experience with our widget and the impact to your checkout flow. I've reached out to you through email to learn more and make sure our teams are following our strict implementation and quality testing guidelines.

They raised rates on us and don't cover the order AFTER the order was placed and BEFORE it was processed. Customer called to have protection added on after they completed order, we added it BEFORE the order was processed. Route then would NOT honor the protection after order was damaged. Con artists.

Horrible company as soon as they have to cover more than 2 orders they decided they " have to terminate services'. 100 order and 2 needed to be paid out and they end the service with us. I say go with another company for your website
