Spot Your Most Expensive Customers

The Challenge

Some customers cost you more than they spend

A small percentage of customers account for the majority of returns. They buy multiple items knowing they'll return most. Each return costs you $15-30 in shipping, processing, and restocking. These serial returners drain your margins while appearing as 'loyal' customers.

Stop 'Wear and Return' Fraud

The Challenge

Customers 'borrow' your products for free

Wardrobing is when customers buy items, use them once (for an event, photo shoot, or just to try), then return them as 'unworn.' You're left with unsellable inventory. Fashion brands lose $17B annually to this fraud pattern.

The Solution

Behavioral Pattern Analysis

Our AI detects wardrobing patterns by analyzing return timing (weekend purchases returned Monday), product categories (formal wear, high-end items), and customer history. Flag suspicious returns for inspection before processing refunds.

  • Weekend purchase → weekday return patterns
  • Event-timing correlation (holidays, proms)
  • High-value item flagging
  • Repeat behavior detection

Tag Risky Customers Automatically

The Challenge

You can't remember which customers are problematic

A customer with 15 returns places a new order. Your team doesn't know their history. They get the same treatment as first-time buyers. Without customer-level risk visibility, you're flying blind on every transaction.

The Solution

Shopify Customer Tags Integration

RefundSentry automatically adds risk-level tags to customer profiles in Shopify. Your team sees 'refundsentry:high-risk' right in the order view. Create workflows, filter customers, and make informed decisions instantly.

  • Automatic tag updates on score changes
  • Three risk levels (low/medium/high)
  • Visible in Shopify admin & POS
  • Works with Shopify Flow automations

Know the Risk Before You Refund

The Challenge

Every return request is a gamble

Should you approve this return? Is this customer legitimate or gaming the system? Without data, you either approve everything (losing money to fraud) or create friction for good customers. Neither option is acceptable.
