ROUTE Package Protection & Visual Tracking

"Route is a platform we have partnered with here at Worldbuilders Market to help alleviate the frustrations and concerns with both ordering on our marketplace, and getting our packages to our supporters safely and successfully. We all know the world is changing, and the changes do not appear to be slowing down anytime soon. Times in transit are getting longer and tracking seems less and less reliable, and sometimes isn't updated at all. Packages are arriving damaged, and sometimes not even arriving. We do everything we can to ensure a safe transit of your goods that you are expecting from us, and Route is another tool that we are using to help with that process."  - Your friends at Worldbuilders
