Frequently asked questions
Is AfterShip Returns reliable?
AfterShip Returns works for most merchants, but multiple Shopify App Store reviews mention exchange bugs (charges full price instead of return credit) and unexpected billing after the trial.
Is Revert more expensive than AfterShip?
For small volumes (5 to 50 returns/mo), Revert is competitive with a real free plan. At 100 returns/mo, AfterShip is cheaper ($11 vs $19), but Revert includes the warranty module and direct support.
