Return Scout

Return Scout helps merchants identify problematic orders before shipping to reduce return costs. The app automatically analyzes and scores every order for return risk patterns, including size bracketing where customers order multiple sizes of the same item planning to return what doesn't fit. Flagged orders appear in your dashboard with detailed risk breakdowns, letting you review and hold shipments with one click that syncs directly with Shopify fulfillment. You can configure auto-hold rules to automatically pause high-risk orders, helping your fulfillment team focus on orders customers are more likely to keep. This fraud detection tool saves money by catching return abuse before items ship.
