What the return rate calculator shows

Your return rate percentage, how it compares to common ecommerce ranges, and a rough refund-cost impact using average order value. Pure client-side maths nothing is sent to an API to calculate.

How to use it

Enter total orders and returned orders for a period (month or quarter works well), optionally add average order value, and read the rate plus estimated refund exposure.

When merchants need it

Apparel, footwear and made-to-order brands watching margin leak from returns. Also useful before negotiating supplier quality or investing in better size guides.

Tips to lower returns

Improve fit content, photo accuracy and pre-purchase support. Many “wrong item / not as described” tickets are preventable with clearer PDPs and faster answers exactly what AI support is for.
