How to conduct an exchange for the same product?


1、Overview:

The 17TRACK's Same Product Exchange feature is one of the leading return solutions on the Shopify App Store, purpose-built to streamline returns and enable compelling exchange experiences, helping merchants minimize losses, reduce friction, and retain revenue.

It empowers merchants to mark the completion of after-sales requests in the Returns dashboard based on exchange shipment tracking, ensuring end-to-end visibility and control across the return lifecycle while delivering a superior post-purchase experience for customers.
