The Track-POD alternative without a per-driver minimum

EfiRoute is a Track-POD alternative that drops the per-driver model. Track-POD charges $49–99 per driver per month with a mandatory 3-driver minimum (or from $285/month on its per-order plan); EfiRoute is $15/month plus $1 per courier per optimization run, starts free, and has no seat minimum — with proof of delivery included.

Track-POD pairs route planning with strong proof-of-delivery features, but its per-driver plans start at $49/driver/month and require at least three drivers, and SMS notifications are billed separately. EfiRoute includes proof of delivery too, and charges a small flat fee plus usage — with no minimum seat count.

Frequently asked questions

Is EfiRoute cheaper than Track-POD?

For most small teams, yes. Track-POD’s per-driver plans start at $49/driver/month with a three-driver minimum, so five drivers is around $245–295/month. EfiRoute has no seat minimum and a 5-courier team typically pays $20–110/month depending on optimization frequency.

Does EfiRoute have proof of delivery like Track-POD?

Yes. Photo and signature proof of delivery is included on EfiRoute’s paid plans, along with live tracking and a dedicated courier app. Track-POD offers very detailed POD, but EfiRoute covers the essentials without a per-driver minimum.

Is there a driver minimum on EfiRoute?

No. One courier or twenty share the same $15/month Pro plan; you pay $1 per courier included in each optimization run. Track-POD’s per-driver plans require a minimum of three drivers.
