Integration With Happy Returns

Last Updated: October 13, 2024

ReturnGO integrates with Happy Returns, a PayPal company, to help you offer box-free, label-free return drop-offs at over 5,000 locations across the US.

Capabilities 

The integration with Happy Returns enables you to offer US customers the option to take returns to a drop-off location, known as a Return Bar, instead of shipping them back directly to the store. 

The Happy Returns integration supports:

  • Return labels
  • Live tracking status updates
  • QR codes
Return Labels Return Tracking QR Codes Auto Select Cheapest International Shipping

How It Works

The returns process when using the Happy Returns integration looks like this:

  1. The customer initiates a return through your return portal.
  2. The customer selects the Happy Returns drop-off return method.
  3. The customer drops off their items at a Return Bar.
  4. The Returnista takes the items, places them in a tote bag, and attaches a label with the Express Code (RMA ID) on it. 
  5. The tote bag is sent to the Happy Returns Hub for sorting.
  6. During the sorting process, the items are packaged individually in bags. 
  7. The sorter sticks a new label on the bag, containing either only the Bag ID or both the Bag ID and Express Code.
  8. The bags are placed in boxes, which are collected onto pallets and shipped to your warehouse/store.
  9. You can use either the Express Code as the tracking number, or you can associate items to RMAs based on the Bag ID.

Note: Happy Returns is the prioritized return method for customers when available, appearing collapsed by default at the top of the policy selection list in the portal.
