About Route
Route is a package protection and shipment tracking platform that lets ecommerce merchants offer customers insurance-like coverage against lost, stolen, and damaged packages. When customers experience a delivery issue on a Route-protected order, they file a claim through Route's portal — but they often contact the brand's support team first with questions about coverage, claim eligibility, and reimbursement timelines. Connecting Route to Bookbag means the AI agent can look up whether an order is Route-protected, check the status of an active claim, and walk customers through the claim filing process — reducing the volume of Route-related tickets your team handles manually.
How it works together
Connect Route and Bookbag gets the context and reach it needs to resolve more tickets automatically.
- Connect via Route API credentialsEnter your Route merchant API credentials in Bookbag. The agent can then look up order protection status, active claims, and claim processing details for your customers.
- Check whether an order is Route-protectedWhen a customer reports a lost or damaged package, Bookbag immediately queries Route to confirm whether the order includes Route protection — establishing coverage eligibility before the conversation progresses.
- Retrieve active claim status and resolution detailsIf a claim has already been filed, Bookbag pulls the current claim status from Route — whether it's under review, approved, or resolved — and communicates the outcome and timeline to the customer.
- Guide customers through the Route claim processFor orders that are eligible but haven't yet had a claim filed, Bookbag explains the Route claim process step by step and provides the direct link to the Route claims portal for the customer's specific order.
