Editing all other content

To edit all other text throughout the shopper return portal, click on the Edit all content button. There are 7 sections across the top of the page that can be clicked into and reviewed. Using the Search feature on the far right is a quick way to locate where a certain word or phrase lives through the shopper return portal.

Global

The Global tab contains values that will appear across the customer experience, including things like the footer which will appear on every page.

Lookup page

The Lookup Page functions essentially as the Loop landing page. Customers will look for their order on this page to begin their return. This includes gift return functionality, if you have it enabled.

Order page

Once a customer has entered their order info, they'll see the Order Page, where they can select the product(s) they want to return. This page is also where edits to the variant exchange page would be made.

Credit Page

If a customer chooses to return their product (i.e. they do not exchange for another variant), they will land on the Credit Page. This page includes the Shop Now, store credit and refund outcomes, if all of those outcomes are enabled.

Shop Now page

The customer will land on this page if you have Shop Now enabled, you are using the In App version of Shop Now and the customer selects the Shop Now outcome. All copies in the Shop Now: In App experience can be edited from this tab.

Review page

When the customer has selected their desired item(s) and corresponding outcome(s), they will next see the Review Page. The copy available in this tab accounts for all outcomes: Shop Now, variant exchange, store credit and refund.

Return Status Page

All customers that complete a return will end on the Return Status Page. The customer will see their downloadable shipping label (or QR code if applicable), a breakdown of their transaction, a summary of their selections and the return shipping instructions.

FAQ

Can I use a custom font in the shopper return portal? Unfortunately, at this time we do not support the ability to upload custom fonts to the shopper return portal. You can choose from a selection of fonts to meet your brand’s needs.

Is there a character limit on the content fields? No, there is no character limit. However, we recommend reviewing how this will appear in the portal to make sure the formatting appears as expected.

Can I connect my sizing chart to Loop for exchanges? Loop can accommodate one sizing chart. That link can be added to the portal in Customizations. Go to Edit all content > Order Page tab > Product Exchange. You'll drop the URL to your size chart page in the Size Chart U R L box, and create a name for the link in the Size Chart Copy box. Loop is limited to one sizing chart link. If you have multiple, we recommend creating a page that contains all of your sizing charts in one place to link to.

Can I change my shopper return portal URL + tab content? Yes, if you are on our Pro, Plus, or Advanced plan. We recommend something like: returns.brand.com or exchanges.brand.com. Please review our Help Center article on setting up a custom domain and contact support@loopreturns.com or your Onboarding Specialist/Merchant Success Manager to assist with this.

Where will the light background logo be used? The light background logo will be used on the Return Status Page, the final page of the customer experience. If applicable, it will also show up in the Shop Now: In App experience. If you do not have Shop Now on or are using the On Store version, this logo will not appear there.

I'm having a hard time finding the text that I want to update - is there an easier way? Utilize the Search tab on the content customizations page in your Loop admin. Simply search for the word or phrase you wish to replace.

Can I change the background color of the Review Page and Return Status Page? At this time, the color of these two pages are unable to be changed and will remain white.

Can I change the name that appears next to the favicon image when the shopper return portal tab is open? You can edit this by going to Customizations > Edit all content > Global > Title.
