This can be helpful if they want to clarify a reason, provide feedback, or add any relevant details.


✍️ How it works

  • A text field appears on the final return confirmation step

  • The customer can enter up to your defined character limit

  • The note is optional and can be left blank

  • Notes are saved and shown inside the Returnflows admin panel

In the settings, you’ll see a simple toggle to enable the feature, and a field where you can set a max character count (e.g. 250).


🛍 What it looks like for the customer

On the confirmation screen, the customer sees a single-line input field labeled:
“Enter note (optional)”

It appears just above the “Confirm Return” button, giving space to leave additional info.


🧑‍💻 What it looks like in admin

When viewing a return in Returnflows, any note the customer submitted will be visible on the right-hand side of the return details.

It shows under the section “Customer Note”, as plain text beneath the customer’s contact info.


⚙️ Settings

Go to:
Settings → Customize → Customer Notes

You can:

  • Enable or disable the field

  • Define the maximum character limit (e.g. 250)


❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make the field required?
No – the note is always optional.

Will the note appear in Shopify?
Not at this time – only inside Returnflows.

Is there a character limit?
Yes – you set it yourself.
