## Good for

- Shopify and BigCommerce merchants who want rules-based returns
- Stores that want to pay per return rather than a flat fee

## Worth knowing

- The pricing page contradicts itself: the plan table shows a usage-based plan with no subscription fee, while the FAQ says ReturnLogic starts at $299/month.
- The FAQ says there is no free trial.
- The FAQ describes a 12-month contract that auto-renews unless notice is given 30 days before the renewal date.
- The per-return rate falls from $3.90 to $0.25; the page does not show what volume sets the rate.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 1.6 out of 4**, graded Nov 13, 2026. ReturnLogic is a returns portal with rules, exchanges, printerless returns and reporting for Shopify and BigCommerce. The pricing page contradicts itself: the table shows no subscription and $0.25 to $3.90 per return, while the FAQ says it starts at $299 a month. The FAQ also says there is no free trial and describes a 12-month auto-renewing contract.

- **Value for money: D.** If the FAQ is right, it starts at $299 a month, above the $147 where the dearest tenth of shipping tools begins. The plan table says $0.25 to $3.90 per return with no subscription, so the real floor is unclear.
- **Free plan and trial: F.** The FAQ says there is no free trial, and no free plan is listed.
- **Features: B.** A branded portal, automated rules and policies, exchanges, bonus credit, printerless returns, warranty returns, disposition and reporting. The listing names no gap in the core job.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. You set up your policies and rules for the portal.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web portal for Shopify and BigCommerce only. No desktop or phone app.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace ReturnLogic you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 69 of the 80 other shipping software grade higher. It costs $3,588 a year.

- You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- You could not: Discounted carrier rates and labels, which take an agreement with each carrier.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
