Returnly Alternative
The modern Returnly alternative
EcoReturns gives Shopify and multi-channel brands an AI-first returns platform - with active product investment, global coverage and flat pricing.
Returnly was an early leader in instant credit and Shopify returns, but since the Affirm acquisition many brands report slower product velocity and uncertainty about long-term roadmap. EcoReturns is the AI-native alternative: a unified returns, exchanges and refunds platform built for Shopify, Shopify Plus, WooCommerce, Magento and marketplaces, with continuous product investment and white-glove onboarding.

- Active AI-first roadmap - return-reason clustering, fraud detection, product-fix insights
- Flat pricing with no per-return surcharge
- Native multi-channel: Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, Amazon, marketplaces
- Strong international and multi-region carrier coverage
- White-glove migration from Returnly in under a week
