What Shopify does on its own

Start with what's built in.

“You can add up to 10 delivery zones per location.”
Shopify Help Center · verified Sep 26, 2026

It's free and built into checkout. You set zones by postal code or radius, with a delivery price and minimum order for each, and your drivers can use the free Shopify Local Delivery app for directions and status updates. The Help Center page doesn't describe bookable delivery dates or time slots, or a limit for each slot (verified Sep 26, 2026). ScrollEngine adds those.

How it works

Set up in three steps.

  1. 01

    Customers check their address and book a slot

    The cart widget checks the address by ZIP, full address or map pin, then shows the delivery dates and time slots of the location that serves it, with your cutoffs, prep time and blackout dates applied. Set a capacity for each slot and day, per location; you see remaining capacity as orders book.

  2. 02

    Orders go to the right location and onto a route

    Location rules send each order to the store or warehouse that serves its zone. Plan optimized routes for several drivers at once, with vehicle capacity, delivery windows, shifts and breaks, and edit a route after it starts: ETAs are recalculated for the stops that remain.

  3. 03

    Drivers deliver and customers follow along

    Drivers run the route in the driver app for iOS and Android and capture a photo, signature and notes as proof of delivery. Customers follow a live tracking page with live ETAs and get email, SMS, WhatsApp or push updates.

Before you switch on local delivery

Three things decide how smoothly your first week goes, and all of them live in the settings above:

  • Draw zones you can reach inside a slot. A zone your driver can't cover within one delivery window turns into late orders. Start with the areas you already deliver to, then widen them.
  • Set capacity for each day, not one number for the week. A quiet Tuesday and a busy Saturday rarely have the same drivers and prep time, so give each its own slot and day limits.
  • Decide who delivers. Invite your drivers to the driver app before you plan routes. If a location hands its orders to a courier, keep it on shipping while your own drivers cover the rest.

Where each part runs

Setup, zones, slots and orders live inside Shopify admin. The route planner and the driver app work from the same orders and slots. The live driver map and driver scorecards run in the ScrollEngine web dashboard (not inside Shopify admin), which you open from the app.

Zones, slots, routes and drivers in one app

Zones, slots, routes, drivers and tracking all share one set of locations and orders, so nothing has to be copied between tools. 100+ merchants rate us 5.0 stars on the Shopify App Store (as of Sep 2026), with 2,000+ merchants trust us (as of Oct 2026).

Honest fit

When something else fits better.

  • Every delivery goes to on-demand couriers, never your own drivers. A courier app suits that job. ScrollEngine is built for stores whose own drivers deliver, and it can still run your store pickup.
