FOR DISPENSARIES THAT DELIVER
Cannabis delivery software and dispensary delivery software priced per vehicle, per order and per month
The short answer
Cannabis delivery software is sold on three different meters, and the meter matters more than the sticker. General route planners charge per vehicle (SmartRoutes lists $32 to $65 a vehicle a month), dispatch platforms charge by task volume (Onfleet lists $619 a month for 2,500 tasks, and ID scanning starts on its $1,349 Scale plan), and cannabis POS platforms bundle courier seats into a tier (IndicaOnline lists Delivery Pro at $600 a month billed annually with 10 hub couriers). Only the POS keeps the state delivery inventory ledger, so for a licensed retailer the routing tool is an add-on, never the system of record.

Delivery looks like a logistics problem and gets sold like one. Route optimization, live ETAs, driver apps and photo proof of delivery are the features on every demo. For a licensed dispensary they are the easy half. The hard half is the paperwork the state expects from every vehicle: a ledger of what left the building, a record of what was handed over at each door, an age check, and an entry in track and trace before the end of the day.
This page prices the software that does each half. It sets out how each type of platform charges, models the monthly bill for a storefront adding three vehicles and for a delivery-only service running eight, and shows which tools keep the compliance record and which only move the van. Every price is from the vendor's own published page unless it is marked otherwise. We do not sell delivery software and take no referral fee from any vendor named here.
Why it works
What decides the delivery software bill
Find the meter first
Per vehicle, per task and per courier seat produce very different bills for the same operation. A three-van storefront and an eight-driver delivery service rank the same tools in opposite order, so work out your vehicles and monthly orders before you read any price.
The ledger lives in the POS
California requires a delivery inventory ledger before the driver leaves and an entry in track and trace by the end of the business day. Route planners do not keep it. Whatever you buy for routing has to hand off cleanly to the POS that does.
Check where ID scanning sits
Onfleet lists ID scanning and age verification on its Scale plan, not on Launch. For a cannabis retailer that is not an optional feature, so the real Onfleet entry price is $1,349 a month, not $619.
Vehicle caps shape the software
California caps a delivery vehicle at $10,000 of cannabis goods and Michigan at $5,000, with no more than $3,000 not already ordered. The software has to track the value on board in real time or your drivers will be doing it on paper.
GPS is a legal requirement, not a feature
Michigan requires a GPS device in every delivery vehicle that stays active for the whole run. A driver app that reports location can cover it, but confirm the vendor keeps the location history long enough for an inspection.
Count the twelve month total
Annual billing saves 10% at SmartRoutes and 20% at IndicaOnline. Courier add-ons, extra registers, task overages and onboarding change the number more than the headline does.
How it works
Four steps, in the order that actually pays
Count vehicles and orders
Write down how many vehicles run at peak and how many deliveries you complete in a month. Those two numbers decide which meter is cheap for you.
Check what your POS already does
Most cannabis POS platforms either include delivery or integrate with a dispatch tool. Ask your current vendor what courier seats cost before you buy anything separate.
Price the compliance features, not the demo
Get the plan that includes ID scanning, the ledger, purchase limits and GPS history in writing. The cheapest tier of a dispatch platform often leaves out the one feature a cannabis retailer cannot skip.
Run one zone for two weeks
Pilot the new setup on a single zone and reconcile the ledger against track and trace every evening. If the numbers do not tie out by hand, they will not tie out at scale.
The meter test
What delivery software costs a month at two fleet sizes
Gold bars are a storefront adding delivery with three vehicles and about 1,500 orders a month. Grey bars are a delivery-only service with eight drivers and about 4,000 orders. Every figure is the vendor's own published monthly price. The general route planner is the cheapest line on both, and it is also the only one that does not keep the state ledger.
The numbers
Cannabis delivery software compared on how it charges and what it records
| Platform | How it charges | Published price | Keeps the state delivery record | Best fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IndicaOnline | Tier with bundled POS and courier licenses | Delivery Pro $600 a month annual or $750 monthly, with 2 POS, 10 hub and 5 on-demand couriers. Extra hub courier $40, on-demand $100 | Yes, it is the POS | Delivery-only services and storefronts running their own fleet |
| Onfleet | Monthly tier by task volume | Launch $619 (2,500 tasks), Scale $1,349 (5,000 tasks, ID scanning), Enterprise $3,099 (10,000 plus) | No. Dispatch and proof of delivery, fed by your POS | Larger fleets that need auto-dispatch and route history |
| SmartRoutes | Per vehicle a month | Basic $32, Essentials $54, Premium $65 per vehicle, 10% off annual | No. General route planning | Adding routes and ETAs to a POS that already keeps the ledger |
| WebJoint | Custom quote | Not published. Its own blog says cannabis-specific platforms usually start in the low to mid four figures a month | Yes, vendor claims Metrc sync and vehicle inventory kits | Delivery-first operators who want one system |
| BLAZE | Custom quote | Not published. Directories report the POS from about $500 a month | Yes, POS with a driver app and dispatch hub | Storefront and delivery on one platform |
| Meadow | One flat fee per location, unlimited seats | Not published | Yes, it is the POS | California storefronts that also deliver |
| Dutchie | Custom quote | Not published. Third parties report $499 to $1,000 a month per location | Yes for the POS, delivery through its own tools and partners | Shops whose growth is online ordering |

How much does cannabis delivery software cost?
Between about $160 and $1,350 a month for a small fleet, depending on which meter you buy. A general route planner like SmartRoutes costs $54 a vehicle a month on the plan with proof of delivery, so three vans run $162. A dispatch platform like Onfleet starts at $619 a month for 2,500 tasks, but ID scanning is on the $1,349 Scale plan. A cannabis POS with courier seats built in, such as IndicaOnline, lists its delivery tier at $600 a month billed annually.
Those numbers are not comparable line by line, because they buy different things. The route planner and the dispatch platform sit on top of the POS you already pay for. IndicaOnline replaces that POS. So the fair comparison for a storefront adding delivery is your current POS bill plus $162 to $1,349, against moving to a POS where delivery is part of the tier.
Quote-only vendors are the other half of the market. WebJoint, BLAZE, Meadow and Dutchie do not publish a delivery price. WebJoint's own buying guide says cannabis-specific delivery platforms usually start in the low to mid four figures a month, which is a vendor describing its own category and worth testing against the published cards above.
- Per vehicle: $32 to $65 a vehicle a month (SmartRoutes).
- Per task volume: $619, $1,349 or $3,099 a month (Onfleet).
- Courier seats in a POS tier: $600 a month annual for 10 hub couriers (IndicaOnline).
- Quote only: WebJoint, BLAZE, Meadow, Dutchie.
What does cannabis delivery software have to do to stay compliant?
It has to produce the records your state inspects, and in most states those records belong in the POS. California's rule is specific: before leaving the licensed premises the driver must carry a delivery inventory ledger of every cannabis good in the vehicle, the ledger is updated after each delivery, and the activity goes into track and trace by the end of the business day. The vehicle may not carry more than $10,000 of cannabis goods at any time.
Michigan is tighter on value. A delivery vehicle may not carry more than $5,000 of marijuana product, and no more than $3,000 of it may be product that was not already ordered and processed before the driver left. The vehicle needs a GPS device that stays active for the whole run, and a retailer may not transport more than 15 ounces of marijuana or 60 grams of concentrate at one time.
Software can make those limits automatic or leave them to the driver. A POS with delivery built in knows what is loaded, what each order contains and what has been handed over, so it can stop a driver from accepting an order that would push the vehicle past the cap. A general route planner knows addresses and stops. It has no idea what is in the box.
- California: $10,000 of goods per vehicle, ledger before departure, track and trace by end of day.
- Michigan: $5,000 per vehicle, $3,000 cap on goods not already ordered, GPS required.
- Both: age check at the door and a signed or recorded handover.
Do you need separate delivery software if your POS handles delivery?
Usually not at three vehicles, often yes at eight or more. Most cannabis POS platforms either include a driver app or integrate with a dispatch tool, and at a few vehicles the built-in tool is enough: drivers get a route, the ledger stays in one system, and nobody reconciles two databases at close.
Separate dispatch starts paying when a dispatcher is spending real hours assigning orders by hand, or when on-time delivery is a reason customers choose you. That is where Onfleet's auto-dispatch and route history earn their price. Before you buy it, confirm your POS has a working integration, so the order, the ledger and the proof of delivery do not end up in different places.
Onfleet vs IndicaOnline for cannabis delivery
They solve different problems. Onfleet is a delivery management platform used across many industries, priced by task volume, and strongest at dispatch, route optimization and proof of delivery. It is not a POS, so it depends on an integration for the order and the compliance record. IndicaOnline is a cannabis POS that sells courier licenses inside its tiers, so the order, the ledger and the driver live in one system.
On price, an eight-driver delivery service doing 4,000 orders a month pays $1,349 a month for Onfleet Scale on top of its POS, against $600 a month billed annually for IndicaOnline Delivery Pro with ten hub couriers included. Onfleet wins on dispatch depth and on integrations with whatever POS you already run. IndicaOnline wins on total cost when you are choosing the POS and the delivery tool at the same time.
Can you use a general route planner for weed delivery?
Yes for routing, no as the system of record. A per-vehicle route planner will sequence stops, send ETAs and capture a photo or signature at the door for $32 to $65 a vehicle a month, which is a fraction of a cannabis platform. What it will not do is keep the delivery inventory ledger, enforce purchase limits or report into Metrc.
That makes it a sensible add-on for a storefront whose POS already handles the compliance side and only lacks decent routing. It is the wrong choice as the only tool for a delivery-only license, because the drivers would be keeping the state record on paper.
What to ask a delivery software vendor before you sign
Ask for the plan that includes ID scanning and age verification, and its monthly price. Ask how many vehicles, drivers or tasks the price covers and what each one over costs. Ask whether the delivery inventory ledger is kept in their system or in your POS, and how it reaches track and trace. Ask how long GPS history and proof of delivery photos are kept. Then ask what happens at renewal.
The answers turn a demo into a number you can put next to the published cards on this page. A vendor that will not put the ID scanning tier and the overage rate in writing is telling you something about the second year's invoice.
