With Shop Collections, Returnly additionally serves as the payments facilitator for any transacted uplift -- where a shopper exchanges for product with a higher cost than that being returned. Any such payments from Returnly will be made through a merchant's connected Stripe account.
Returnly Assumes Risk
For merchants who offer exchanges powered by Returnly Credit, Returnly will transfer up to 2 payments for a Shop Collections exchange. As an example of this transaction flow, with a 10% commission fee:
- Shopper buys a shirt for $100
- Shopper returns shirt, exchanges across Collections, and selects a $120 jacket
- Shopper pays $20 in uplift, using a credit card payment method, on the summary page
- Returnly places new order for $120 jacket in your Shopify instance
- Returnly initiates payment for $20 in uplift to merchant's connected Stripe account
- In assuming risk, Returnly initiates second payment, for $88, to merchant's connected Stripe account to assume risk [Credit Issued ($100) - 10% commission on Order Total ($12) = $88 Payment]
- Shopper returns original purchase of shirt valued at $100
- Returnly invoices merchant for $100
Merchant Assumes Risk
For merchants who are configured to offer Automated Exchanges (upon "In Transit" event scan), the only payment transferred by Returnly will be for any uplift amount for a Shop Collections exchange. As an example of this transaction flow:
- Shopper buys a shirt for $100
- Shopper returns shirt, exchanges across Collections, and selects a $120 jacket
- Shopper pays $20 in uplift, using a credit card payment method, on the summary page
- Returnly places new order for $120 jacket in your Shopify instance
- Returnly initiates payment for $20 in uplift to merchant's connected Stripe account
- Shopper returns original purchase of shirt valued at $100
If there is no uplift on an Automated Shop Collections exchange, there will be no payment made by Returnly.
Where there is uplift, a shopper's credit card statement will reflect the payment with a description of Returnly* {MERCHANT NAME}:
Payments from Returnly will be recorded within the "Accounts Receivable" report, grouped by batches represented with unique Stripe IDs.
