Your customers value a forgiving return policy; however, you cannot simply blindly accept every item from every shopper for a full return and still perform your financial responsibility for your chain. The real impact of fraud and purposeful return abuses such as wardrobing is simply too costly. Structuring return practices that build customer loyalty without jeopardizing the company’s viability is an important first step. But many retailers stop at policies alone, believing that if associates enforce receipt and merchandise rules the company will be protected.
Regardless of your retail channel you need a tool that enables you to distinguish and deter fraud before the return transaction is completed. Return authorization prevents fraudulent and abusive transactions from occurring by using predictive analytics to identify and stop high risk returners, increasing net sales and reducing return rates for retailers.
