If I could give 100 Stars for this App, I would. We can't fault the amazing and we mean AMAZING customer service and support. Developers who truly listen to the needs of their customers. We turned to this App because other "return" apps just didn't meet our needs for us to be able to provide a seamless customer experience, but Parcel Panel Returns & Exchanges has filled the gap in the market. Thank You!!

Frequently asked questions

What specific metrics and costs can I track in the dashboard?

Our dashboard tracks all return-related costs including shipping fees, restocking fees, return rates, and revenue retained through exchanges and store credit. You can see your most returned products, return reasons, and frequency patterns across products and shipping methods. Every metric includes explanations so you understand what the numbers mean for your business.

icon

How can I use return data to reduce my return rates?

ParcelPanel's returns analytics dashboard shows your highest-return products and why customers return them. You can identify patterns like sizing issues, quality problems, or misleading descriptions, then take action - improve size guides, update product descriptions, or work with suppliers on quality.

The system also reveals which shipping methods have higher return rates. By addressing these insights proactively, many merchants see significant return rate reductions within months.

icon

How much time can I save on return processing with this dashboard?

The centralized dashboard significantly reduces time spent on return management through instant search capabilities and smart filtering that eliminate hours spent hunting through scattered return records. Everything is organized in one place with powerful search tools and real-time updates.

The system enables batch processing and automated organization that cuts down on time-consuming administrative tasks. This organized approach not only saves time but also ensures more accurate return processing by preventing mistakes and ensuring consistent handling of every RMA.

icon

How can I use these analytics to reduce my return costs?

The cost metrics dashboard shows you exactly where your money is going across five key areas: free return service sales, return shipping costs, shipping fees, restocking fees, and return rewards.

Use the time-series chart to identify cost spikes and correlate them with campaigns or seasonal trends. The "Top return reason" tab reveals expensive return causes - if "wrong size" is your top reason, invest in better size guides. The "Returns by solutions" tab shows whether customers prefer refunds, exchanges, or store credit, helping you optimize incentives to retain revenue. Focus on the highest-cost areas first and use trend data to measure improvement.
