This is the real template. Fill it in, then make it yours.

The order, the item, the reason and what the customer would like. A photo is asked for, and required, only for damage and faults; the packaging question appears only for change-of-mind returns; and on Pro, replacements and size exchanges drop out of the choices when they do not fit the reason. A first reply, written from your own returns policy, is written and ready; it switches on with Pro.

Who it’s for

Online shops and product brands that handle returns by email today and want every request to arrive with the order number and a photo.

Put the link in your order confirmation and on your returns page.

Questions about this template

What does the AI reply say?

On Pro, it reads the reason and the date it arrived against the returns policy you paste in, and tells the customer what happens next. Anything it is unsure of waits for a person to check before it is sent.

Can I see why people return things?

Analytics count every reason across responses, and on Pro, AI insights pick out the products and problems that come up most.

Can it link to my shop?

Not to an order system directly. On Pro, a signed webhook can pass each request to your shop or help desk as it arrives.
