Despite being an expensive pain point for retailers, the return process is a vital, and unavoidable, part of the consumer experience, even influencing a visitor’s decision to buy. According to recent findings in the Pitney Bowes’ global e-commerce study, a complex returns process is in the top five reasons for cart abandonment for global shoppers. Additionally, 11 percent of shoppers reported having abandoned orders in the past based on poor returns policy, as told by a recent Baymard Institute study. Seamless return process for global returns, though, have remained scarce for U.S. and Canadian retailers.
