Opus Returns & Exchanges

Free guest returns and exchanges

Shopify handles signed-in refund returns. Opus adds the guest exchange workflow.

Customers find guest or legacy orders with their order number and checkout email, request the replacement they want, and stay in one workflow through inspection and resolution. Every current feature is free, with no card or trial.

The reason to add Opus

Keep Shopify native when it covers the job. Add Opus for the exchange workflow it leaves in email.

Opus does not replace Shopify. It gives customers and staff a structured path for the cases that otherwise become a support thread.

Test the Opus difference

Shopify native is enough for

Signed-in refund returns

  • Customer-account return requests
  • Basic merchant review and refund handling
  • Stores that do not need an exchange request flow

Opus adds

Guest exchanges from request to resolution

  • Order lookup with order number and checkout email
  • Requested size, variant, or different-product exchange
  • Evidence, inbound return, inspection, and Shopify outcome

Interactive synthetic request

Run one exchange from request to resolution.

This demo uses fictional order data. Nothing is submitted to a store, and no customer information is collected.

Before you install

Know the cost, cleanup, and limits.

A new app should be easy to evaluate and easy to remove. These are the practical tradeoffs, stated before Opus touches a store.

Cost

$0 to use

Every current feature is free. There is no trial, card, paid plan, or usage fee.

Theme cleanup

No theme code edits

Opus uses a Shopify theme app extension. Shopify removes its blocks when the app is uninstalled, so it leaves no injected theme code behind.

Current limit

Bring your own postage

Opus does not buy carrier labels or manage complex international routing. Your team can upload a prepaid label or let the customer arrange postage.

Only what the return workflow needs

Shopify shows access requests during installation. Opus uses them to run the workflow below, not for advertising or unrelated personalization.

  • Draft orders and fulfillmentCreate or release approved replacements and exchanges when the resolution requires it.

1. Customer portal

Customers choose what they need help with

The portal reads eligible items from the order and guides the customer through a return, exchange, replacement, or store-credit request.

2. Merchant workspace

Every request lands in one clear queue

Filter by status, reason, outcome, country, or date instead of piecing together a return from email threads.
