In retail and eCommerce, a 20-30% return rate is considered “normal.” But normal ≠ sustainable. Returns eat into logistics, customer support, and resale margins.   And when the process is slow or manual – it’s even worse. 💡 Here’s how modern tech reduces return impact: – AI fit prediction Helps buyers pick the right size from the start  → Fewer wrong orders, fewer returns – Automated returns portal Clear self-service = fewer support tickets and better CX – Photo-based product checks Let customers upload images to validate condition before sending back – Prepaid QR labels & smart lockers Simplify drop-off, cut friction, and speed up turnaround 📊 What to measure: – Return rate – Cost per return – Return-to-resale ratio – Processing time per item We help retail brands implement these tools – whether it’s building a custom portal, integrating AI models, or connecting with shipping APIs. Let’s make returns less painful. And margins a bit healthier. #RetailTech #eCommerce #ReturnsManagement #CustomerExperience #RetailInnovation #EcommerceSolutions #LogisticsTech #DigitalTransformation #RetailStrategy #Innowise
