Return Reasons let you define the possible reasons customers can choose when submitting a return – helping you understand patterns and improve your product or service.

You can add as many or as few reasons as you like – and you decide the wording.


🌍 Global setting

Return Reasons are global and apply across all languages and markets.

You manage a single list of reasons, but each reason can be translated per language.


🧾 Common examples

You can name your reasons freely. Here are some examples:

  • Item too large

  • Item too small

  • Don’t like the color

  • Item didn’t match description

  • Other

You can also add reasons like “Changed my mind” or “Received as gift”.


🆕 📝 Require note for specific return reasons

You can now choose to require the customer to write a note when selecting a specific return reason.

This is especially useful for:

  • The reason "Other"

  • Issues that need clarification

  • Product-specific deviations

How to enable:

  1. Click the three dots (...) next to the return reason

  2. Select “Show Note Field”

  3. A note icon will appear next to the reason – the customer will now be prompted to enter a comment when selecting it


➕ How to add reasons

  1. Go to Settings → Returns → Return Reasons

  2. Click “Add reason”

  3. Enter your reason text and press Enter

  4. Drag to reorder the list

  5. Click the three dots (…) to edit or delete


🌐 How to translate reasons

Want your customers to see reasons in their own language?

Here’s how:

  1. Go to Settings → Languages

  2. Click “Localize” next to the desired language

  3. Search for “returnreason”

  4. Translate each reason in the list

Your customers will see the translated version, while you manage one master list.
