OPTIMIZE RETURNS SETUP

reduce expenses

How does it work?

Do you want to minimize your return expenses?

The returns management of your shipments can quickly become complex and costly. Especially returns from abroad drive up costs. Even more so if already paid customs duties, taxes and fees are lost. If you want your costs to really explode, then your customers send their returns directly to you across the border.

Individual returns solutions

With the help of Swiss Post's individual returns solutions, we set up the returns handling system in a way that is optimal for your online shop. You decide which steps you want to take yourself and which services, such as Content Check, the post office should do for you. Based on the import data, we also take care of the back customs clearance: We reclaim the taxes and customs duties paid on import in your favour.

Optimize returns setup

With your ideal returns solution you minimize the effort for handling your returns from Switzerland. You can concentrate on your core business and the dispatch of goods. Your logistics and administration processes become more efficient and you optimize the handling costs for your returns. Losses due to lost customs duties and taxes are also avoided. The returns process is also very easy for your Swiss customers. You can send the returns to a national returns hub inexpensively and easily.

Everything from one source

Individualised and cleverly thought-out services for your entire shipping process - from your online shop to your customers' doorstep. And back again if you have to.
