How Frate Returns connects to Rig
Give Rig an API token. Rig syncs return groups with their shipments and SKU-level return line items, including the return-reason taxonomy and amounts, plus allowlist policy items, so returns join to the orders and products they came from.
Find the products returns are eating
Return rate at the company level hides everything useful. At SKU level, joined to sales, it shows which products lose money after returns and which sizes or variants are the actual problem.
- Which SKUs have the highest return rate relative to units sold?
- What is net revenue after returns by product?
- Which variants are returned most, and for what reason?
Act on return reasons
The reason taxonomy is the most actionable field in returns data and the least used, because it sits in a separate tool. In the warehouse you can group reasons by product and category, which separates a sizing problem from a quality problem from a photography problem.
- What are the top return reasons by category?
- Which products are returned mainly for sizing?
- Has the reason mix changed since we updated the size guide?
Understand what returns cost
Return amounts alongside order values and shipping costs give the real figure, which is usually worse than the refund alone. That makes policy decisions such as free returns or restocking fees measurable rather than instinctive.
- What did returns cost us last quarter including shipping?
- Which customer segments return most, and are they still profitable?
- How would a restocking fee change contribution by category?
