Returns and exchanges in chat for Shopee

Yes. AeroChat answers return and exchange questions in Shopee chat. It tells the buyer whether the item can come back under your policy, how to start the return from the order in the Shopee app, and how to pack it. When they want a different size, it checks your size chart and stock and names the variant to order. The return itself is filed and decided in Shopee.

This recipe handles “can I return or exchange this?” in Shopee chat. Part of Shopee and AeroChat. For Shopee’s own return deadlines, see return requests on Shopee.

What happens today

Most return chats start with a question, not a request. Can I return it? Can I get the other size? Does it need the box? If nobody answers, the buyer files the return anyway, often with the wrong reason, and the sale you could have kept becomes a refund.

The flow that works

A buyer asks about a return or exchange in Shopee chat.
AeroChat asks what is wrong with the item.
If they want a different size, it checks your size chart or compatibility list and your Stock Sheet, and names the variant to order.
It explains your return conditions in your words: condition, tags, packaging.
It explains how to start the return from the order in the Shopee app and which reason to choose.
For a damaged, faulty or wrong item, it collects the order number and photos and hands the chat to your team.

What it looks like in Shopee chat

Buyer: The dress is too tight. Can I exchange for M? (example)

AeroChat: Hi! Sorry it does not fit. The M is in stock in the same color. Our policy is to return the S and order the M as a new order (example). You can start the return from this order in the Shopee app. Please keep the tags on and use the original bag.

Behind the reply: AeroChat answered from your return policy and checked the M in your Stock Sheet.

The recipe

Copy this into AeroChat

When a buyer in Shopee chat asks to return or exchange an item, follow these steps.

Ask what is wrong with the item.

If they want a different size, check our size chart or compatibility list and our Stock Sheet, and tell them which variant to order. Explain our exchange policy in our own words.

Explain our return conditions: unused, tags on, original packaging.

Explain how to start the return from the order in the Shopee app and which reason matches what they told us.

If the item is damaged, faulty or wrong, ask for the order number and photos, then hand the conversation to our team.

Never approve or reject a return. Never promise a refund. Never send outside links or offer to sell outside Shopee. Reply in the buyer’s language.

Add your return and exchange policy and your size chart to AeroChat’s knowledge before you paste it.

What stays in Shopee

AeroChat handles the conversation. Returns, refunds and the new order stay in Shopee, and your team decides each return in Seller Center.

What to connect

Your return and exchange policy, and your size chart or compatibility list. Paste them in or link the pages.
Your Stock Sheet. A Google Sheet with the count for each variant, so AeroChat only suggests what you can ship.

After you paste the recipe, AeroChat builds the workflow as a draft and shows a checklist of what is left to switch on: connect your shop, add your knowledge, link your Sheet if the recipe uses one, then switch it on.

Using a different system? If it has a public API, it connects to AeroChat the same way: describe what you want, paste in its key, and it runs.

Which items cannot come back, such as opened cosmetics.
Which problems go to your team.

The result to expect

Buyers who want a different size or model hear which one to order straight away, and the returns that do come in are filed with the right reason and photos.

Measure it with your own numbers: returns filed with the wrong reason, and exchanges kept as new orders, for a month before and after.
