Process-oriented returns handling

For customers, returning an item is quite simple, but for retailers it involves a lot of time and effort. Return slips have to be created, return receipts booked and refunds paid out.

This is usually a complex process that can be simplified with smart digital solutions. The Actindo platform supports you by mapping out the entire customizable returns management process and automating workflows for efficient returns processing.

Returns as a cost factor 

Having a high return rate results in high costs. Although return costs can be charged to customers, many retailers refrain from doing so because acceptance among customers for it is too low.

In addition to the shipping of returns, however, inefficient returns management can also cost a lot of money. Especially in online retail, returns management is an important aspect for the economic success of a company.

Using modern systems, such as the Actindo return management module, you can free up resources and optimize the processing of returns, ensuring greater efficiency.
