International returns FAQ

What is Rapid International Returns?

Rapid International Returns is RapidXO's returns management service for ecommerce brands. It routes every return to the best warehouse by cost, speed, and geography, consolidates cross-border returns through regional hubs, handles customs paperwork, and offers exchanges before refunds to keep revenue.

How do international returns work?

The customer starts a return online and gets a label for the best carrier in their country. Returns are consolidated at a regional hub, then moved in bulk with customs documentation handled, instead of each parcel crossing the border on its own.

How much can better returns management save?

Brands using Rapid International Returns see a 23% reduction in return costs and 3x faster return resolution, with 98% successful return processing.

What is return consolidation?

Instead of shipping each international return back individually, returns are collected at a regional hub and shipped together. This cuts cross-border cost per return and simplifies customs.

Can I set different return rules by product or country?

Yes. Return policies and workflows can be configured by product, category, or region.

How do exchanges turn returns into revenue?

When the return flow offers an exchange or store credit before a refund, more of the original sale stays with your brand. RapidXO's automated customer flows are built to do that.

How many returns does RapidXO handle?

More than 500,000 returns a month across a network of 40+ carriers and warehouses, with 24/7 monitoring and end-to-end visibility.
