AfterShip Returns & Exchanges

Thank you so much Shivam Singh! You provided an excellent service!!!

Going well - I really wanted to offer free shipping returns for customers that could self generate them - but that is not possible on my plan $59 a month - but we can offer variant swaps like shoe size swap for example, customers can generate their own labels, returns are approved automatically, and we offer a 15% store credit bump when customer opts in for that in regards to returns instance -

Chaitali was very helpful and resolved my issue right away. She quickly understood the problem, provided a clear solution, and made the entire process smooth and efficient. I really appreciate her prompt assistance and excellent support. Thank you!

Arun was very patient and explained the process clearly. They were also very understanding of a mishap regarding the service request at the beginning on my end. Overall great experience.

Abhishek is the GOAT of customer service. We needed to retrieve some information from a record that has been archived, and he provided quick and efficient support. Kudos.

Thanks Rahul, very helpful!

very helpful. Thank you

I had an extremely frustrating experience with AfterShip Returns and honestly regret wasting so much time setting it up.

As a Shopify business owner, I spent HOURS configuring their return portal, workflows, customer messaging, replacement flows, uploads, and policies — only to discover that one of the most basic and essential return workflow features was locked behind a more expensive plan.

Our business simply wanted to approve replacements without forcing customers to return low-value items. This is a completely normal workflow for modern ecommerce businesses. Instead, the system keeps showing customers return shipping instructions and “items you need to return,” which creates confusion and a terrible customer experience.

What makes this worse is:

• Slow customer support responses
• Being passed between multiple agents
• Generic copy-paste replies
• Wasting time explaining the same issue repeatedly
• Basic functionality hidden behind higher pricing tiers

The most disappointing part is that this wasn’t some advanced enterprise feature. It was a simple operational requirement that many Shopify stores would reasonably expect to have access to.

After spending hours onboarding and customizing everything, they eventually told me the feature required upgrading to a more expensive Pro plan just to allow “keep the item” returns/replacements.

So basically:

1. Spend hours setting everything up
2. Discover critical workflow limitations later
3. Pay more money to unlock practical functionality

This feels incredibly misleading from a merchant perspective.

The support team kept apologizing, but apologies don’t give businesses back their wasted time. The overall experience felt designed to push users into higher-tier plans after they are already invested in the setup process.

If you’re considering AfterShip Returns for a serious ecommerce operation, I strongly recommend testing EVERY workflow limitation first before committing time to setup.

For us, this was a huge waste of time, energy, and effort.

To your reply -> thanks for offering printer less returns with Green returns for extra 40 USD a month - completely worth it . Next time do let people know how to use the printerless returns with the green return option
