Returns Portal Checker

Why post-purchase matters

The post-purchase window (order confirmation through delivery) is the highest-engagement moment in the customer journey — emails get opened at 60–80% open rates vs ~25% for marketing emails. Branded tracking, returns portals, and protection upsells turn this attention into incremental revenue.

Shipping protection economics

Route, Navidium, and Corso let customers pay 1–2% of order value for lost/damaged-package replacement. The store typically keeps 25–60% of that fee as margin. For a $100 AOV store doing 1,000 orders/mo, that's $1,000–3,000/mo in net-new revenue with zero risk.
