The partnership between Redo and Shopify Collective allows you to easily manage returns for Collective items that can be returned to different location.
Shopify Collective allows you (retailer) to directly source and sell products from other brands (suppliers) within your Shopify store, without holding the physical inventory yourself. It is a tool designed to help ecommerce businesses easily partner with other brands to expand their product offerings and grow cart values to increase sales.
The partnership between Redo and Shopify Collective allows you to easily manage returns for Collective items that can be returned to different location. With Redo, you can route the supplier items back to the suppliers warehouse instead of your warehouse as needed.
By joining Shopify Collective, you can add new products from suppliers to your store without purchasing or storing inventory. When you sell a supplier's product through Shopify Collective, they ship directly to the end customer, eliminating you of any fulfillment responsibility. You focus on promoting, merchandising and selling, while the supplier takes care of fulfillment Redo comes into play when there’s a return processed on an order, including Collective products. If that order contains products sold from another merchant (supplier), Redo gives you the ability to set rules so customers can return products to the original supplier.
The customer goes through the same Redo return portal and based on the rules you have set, the return flow will follow including - what warehouse the return needs to go, generates the return label, and allows for a seamless, automated refund to the customer. Redo will then track the return and process the refund based on the rules you’ve set in your returns portal setup.
Login to your Redo Merchant Dashboard and follow these simple steps to create rules for Collective returns.
Use the following values when completing the form:
After the address is created, you’ll then update one more setting to complete the setup.
Since your Redo Return Flow has already been created previously, the customer experience will be short and simple. These steps will indicate how to process a refund, and the exchange process will be extremely similar!
Exchanges are processed in the same portal as a return. When an exchange is selected, a return label is created and sent to the customer who then sends the product to the newly created supplier address from the prior step. When the exchange is sent, a new order is created in the retailer’s Shopify store for processing and the replacement product is sent out once the exchanged item is received by the supplier.
Labels are automatically created by Redo from the return portal and included in the retailers order in their Shopify Admin.
Order status in Shopify when return is initiated by the customer will update to “return in progress” on the supplier's order & “return processing” on the retailer’s order.
Redo will automatically issue the refund when the supplier processes the return. You will then be notified of the refund.
We recommend you set the refund processing to either None or Return created in the “Automations” section under “Returns & Claims”. You can use the other settings, but run the risk of refunding the customer before receiving a refund from the supplier and potentially not getting the refund from the supplier.
This brand new partnership allows brands on Shopify to bring automated returns and exchanges, configured in the merchant’s Shopify admin, into the Shop app. To start, the Redo App will need to be installed in the merchant’s existing Shopify store.This means returns and exchanges created in the Redo App will have multi-channel use across a brand’s storefront on both their online store and in the Shop app.
For shoppers, the Shop app makes it easy to browse brands, earn rewards, track packages, and more in one place. While some may know Shop as a tracking app, it’s also where millions of shoppers discover amazing brands and products.
For brands, Shop is a channel to reach millions of active shoppers. It’s where brands of all sizes engage with more shoppers, convert in more places, and drive repeat sales. Learn more about how Shop can support brand growth here.
Shop is designed to connect Shopify merchants with millions of engaged shoppers. Once eligible, merchants are automatically opted into selling on Shop. You can review eligibility requirements here.
To grow your presence on the app and to establish Shop as a new channel for your brand, we suggest checking out some best practices in this guide.
Redo is an ecommerce app designed to streamline your post-purchase operations.
The flagship product is a free returns software that allows merchants to automate the returns/exchanges process through our customizable portal and have Redo cover the return labels. Any claims can also be handled through a similar process. This reduces support tickets, gives better insight into return reasons, and provides a smoother returns experience for buyers.
All inquiries and customer communication can also be consolidated with our customer support platform allowing you to seamlessly handle all customer requests across any channel in one place. Redo can also help you offer a better order tracking experience for additional branding and cross-sell opportunities that can be set up in 30 minutes.
Redo’s vision is to help you provide a superior customer experience while improving your bottom line with a consolidated tech stack.
The exact same returns flow and settings that you have set up for your store will be applied within the Shop app as well.
Redo Returns is a free app for merchants.
Updating your returns flow or settings in your Redo dashboard will apply those same changes to the experience within the Shop app.
Shopify and Redo want merchants to start leveraging the value from this new integration as quickly as possible, so we enabled it using the existing functionality that you have already configured in Redo. If you want to make any changes, then you can do so in Redo's dashboard.
From within the Redo app, you can modify your app’s functionality, which will remove it from the Shop app. We hope you test it out first as a way to be discovered by over 100 million Shop app users.
This is a brand new integration and a first of its kind, therefore it’s hard for us to predict exact results. The goal is to provide merchants the ability to give a seamless returns and exchanges portal that remains in the same experience and UI that Shop provides. This should increase overall customer experience resulting in a higher customer retention rate.
You’ll be able to review results in the Shop channel which is embedded in the Shopify admin. You’ll be able to look at, visits, orders & GMV.
