Check item condition before return costs are triggered.

Apply your business logic

Determine the right outcome

Route every return to the most suitable next step.

Improve over time

Use return data to refine decisions and performance.

— Risk and Verification

Not every return should follow the same path

Back adapts the returns journey based on condition, customer behaviour, fraud signals, verification confidence, and retailer-defined rules. That means trusted customers can move faster, while high-risk or unverifiable returns trigger additional checks before costs are incurred.

— Built to integrate, not replace

Built to work with your existing returns stack

Back sits before traditional returns processing, helping retailers verify condition, assess risk and make smarter decisions before products start moving. Using customer-submitted photos, AI-powered grading and retailer-defined logic, Back can operate as a standalone returns portal or integrate with your existing returns platform, carrier network and operational systems.
