I am super impressed with Loop. It functions and looks better than anything I could have DIY'ed. Loop is user-friendly, with a clear interface, excellent tutorials, and an approachable team. I was not anticipating the amount of "homework" I had to do but it wasn't so bad because there was a handy to-do list. I recommend Loop to anyone looking to improve their Returns & Exchanges process.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience with Loop!
We have been really unhappy with this app. We have zero support. When you send a support ticket, it may take days for them to get back to you, if they get back to you at all. They will not call you or schedule a meeting if there is an issue, so instead, it becomes days' worth of emails back and forth and a waste of valuable time. We find it glitchy and not user-friendly and not worth the money.
Thank you for providing these feedback- we're very sorry to hear about your experience. This doesn't align with the level of service we aim to provide. We're actively addressing these issues and have made your MSM aware.
Loop is a great system and our account manager is always quick to answer and give us the reporting we need! The Loop analytics are super extensive, however, are a bit more manual than we would like, but you most definitely can pull all the return information you need. The Loop team is always quick to accommodate and respond to us though, which is super appreciated whenever there is an error.
We have had a couple of issues in the past with slow load time at the POS level in-store and some errors on exchanges. However, we worked with the Loop team to resolve the exchange errors and are excited for Loop to keep evolving and getting better and better!
Thanks for this insightful review! We're excited to continue evolving with you! 🤝
Onboarding was super easy. Taylor was very helpful and made the transition to using Loop seamless. Looking forward to using the app
We're thrilled to be working with you! Thanks for sharing! 💙
We have been using Loop for 6 months and have found it challenging to work with. It becomes expensive to achieve the functionality required to be effective. Doesn't work with international returns, even the ones it should work with. Easypost and loop support won't solve your problem but will keep you locked in for 12 months of pain and excess customer service trying to work around the issues.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with Loop. We do apologize that you had a frustrating one and would like to discuss further. Your account manager is actively looking into this and will be in touch!
Overall - Does the basics, but not a great value. Good option for a mid-sized business, but if you are smaller I'd go for something cheaper and if you are bigger, I'd go for something a bit more comprehensive. Pros:
+ Return Portal UI is clean and works well
+ No issues with Shopify sync and does reduce workload vs. manual processing of returns and exchanges Cons
+ Fairly expensive for what is ultimately a pretty simple service
+ The whole concept of reducing refunds vs. exchanges is just marketing. It truly does nothing in this regard. In fact we saw our refund % go up significantly since installing Loop
+ We pay a couple hundred bucks per month and I don't like how miserly they are with features; e.g. we can see certain analytics but they restrict the ability to see basic stuff like product refunds until we upgrade to the next tier (I understand SAAS pricing but the way they do it feels just cheap)
+ Customer support is mostly a disaster. The team is nice but it seems like they're completely overwhelmed. We've had an issue syncing with ShareaSale and it's legitimately been 2.5 months since we raised it. If we send an email, it usually takes about a week to get a reply. We've followed up maybe 5-10 times on this issue alone, which is of course super frustrating to do when there's a million other things to keep track of.
Thank you so much for sharing this candid and thoughtful feedback. I’m really sorry to hear about your experience with Loop so far; it’s certainly not the value and experience that we intend to deliver for our merchant partners. I personally lead all of our post-sale merchant-facing (Merchant Success) teams, and will be reaching out to you personally to learn more and make this right. Thank you again!
The software is good. Customer service is decent.
There are some features in the software that you need a web developer to implement and code into your .liquid files, and Loop Returns doesn't provide a developer to do so, so you have to hire and pay for the developer yourself.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! While we don't have a developer, our Technical Support Team is always here to help!
Save your time and money and get anything else. The experience quickly went downhill once they sign you up. Customer service disappears and you're stuck with a 12 month contract for something that doesn't fully function as promised and no one to help you!
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review about your recent experience with Loop. We do apologize that you had a frustrating one and would like to discuss further what happened and get your feedback. Your account manager has been notified and will be in touch with you.
Loop is a solid reliable returns platform. I've used it in two different ecomm companies. It's userfriendly, the workflows, tags usage, and return outcomes are well thought out. We definitely take advantage of the Shop Now feature to keep customers reingaged in our eco system. Financial Reconciliation is a bit tricky with, that's an area that can be improved upon, but that said, it's comparable to others on the market. Overall, I'm pleased to continue using Loops as my go-to returns solution.
We love hearing about your positive experience! Thanks for sharing!!
Overall, Loop Returns is a good returns software. The platform offers a lot of nice features and customizations. The integration with our WMS platform makes processing returns easy for our team. Our customers like the “instant exchange” feature as well as the Happy Returns option. The “workflows” allow you to configure return scenarios. However, the reason for three stars is because the platform is very buggy. The amount of return related questions has become a burden for our customer service team. Loop is unable and/or unwilling to find solutions for the issues listed below. In addition third party developers are unable to help.
• Many customers experience issues using the “on-store” shop now feature. After selecting their items and clicking checkout to proceed to the return summary they are redirected back to select return or exchange again. Occurs most frequently on mobile devices.
• The “on-store” shop now feature doesn’t work in our mobile app pop up browser. The product(s) the customer selects to exchange for do not populate on the return summary page. Therefore, we are unable to have links to the returns portal within our app. This is a major issue as roughly 20% of our customers use our mobile app.
• The “shop now bonus” credit is hidden on the returns summary page. This causes customer confusion as they think they aren’t getting the bonus that was previously presented in the return process. To see the bonus the customer has to click the “details” drop-down and it is shown as a line item near the bottom.
• Loop Returns doesn’t work well with Shopify Markets Pro making international returns challenging. The HS codes for products from Shopify Markets Pro orders do not always pass to Loop causing returns labels to not generate. There is no way to override this so we have to generate and process those returns outside of Loop. This is only roughly 5% of those international returns.
• A portion of returns that expiree that have Happy Returns selected for the return method can no longer be returned/exchanged, even when added to the “allowlist”. For some reason when those returns expire it also shows the return was dropped off at a Happy Returns bar even though it wasn’t. Therefore, the system thinks the item(s) were returned already and can no longer be returned. We generate and process those returns outside of Loop.
• You are unable process returns through Loop if the customer’s email address was edited. For example, if there was a typo in the email address and our customer service team corrects it, the customer can no longer initiate the return through the returns portal. It provides the error “unable to retrieve order”. We have to generate and process those returns outside of Loop.
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We're happy to hear that you find our platform valuable, with its features and integrations.
We appreciate your concerns about the technical issues you've encountered, and we've already relayed this to our team. We are constantly working on updates that we believe will enhance your experience and your dedicated MSM will keep you updated to ensure you have the best experience possible!
