Automate returns & refunds - safely

Refunds are high-volume and high-stakes: they move money. Resolvo HQ handles them end to end with the guardrails that make automating money movement safe.

See how it works

Returns drive a large share of post-purchase tickets.

Teams either make customers wait for a human on every refund, or bolt on a bot that can’t actually act. Resolvo HQ resolves the request and takes the action - within limits you set.

How Resolvo HQ handles it

  1. 1

    Grounds in your policy

    Answers eligibility and timing questions from your own return policy, with citations.

  2. 2

    Verifies ownership

    Confirms the customer actually owns the order before any account-specific action - never acts on someone else’s data.

  3. 3

    Issues the refund

    Executes the refund through Shopify with an idempotency key, so a retry can never double-refund.

  4. 4

    Guardrails high-value cases

    Refunds over your threshold (or flagged policies) route to a human for approval instead of auto-executing.

What it can do

  • Policy-grounded, cited answers
  • Order-ownership verification
  • Refund execution via Shopify
  • Per-tenant approval thresholds
  • Idempotent - never double-refunds
  • Immutable audit log of every action

Frequently asked

Can Resolvo HQ actually issue refunds, or just answer questions?+

It does both. With Shopify connected, it can issue the refund itself - after verifying the customer owns the order and checking your guardrails.

How do you prevent wrong or duplicate refunds?+

Three controls: ownership verification before acting, a per-tenant approval threshold that sends high-value refunds to a human, and idempotency keys so a retry never refunds twice.

Can I require human approval over a certain amount?+

Yes. You set the approval threshold; refunds at or above it become a pending action for a human, with the agent’s suggested resolution attached.

Is every refund logged?+

Yes. Every executed action writes an immutable actions-taken record and an audit-log entry tied to the conversation.
