A return policy is a document that describes, in detail, your business’s process and requirements for accepting returns. It also covers what customers should expect, and how they should go about initiating a return.

It’s one thing to accept a return if the customer is immediately unhappy with a product or the product is defective. It’s quite different to accept a return if a product has been used, broken or devalued in any way by the buyer.

Return policies don’t just need to include the details — they must also present them in a clear, concise manner that helps prevent misunderstandings. Your return policy should cover every detail without becoming overly technical.
