In reality, most returns are made by customers who did a guest checkout or do not remember their login details. This addon solves exactly this problem: it provides a clean, standalone returns form that works without login while at the same time fully covering the new European directive Directive (EU) 2023/2673 which explicitly provides for the existence of an easy returns form from 19/6/2026.
The customer fills in their name, email, order number and date. The system immediately checks if they correspond to a real order and, only if they match, sends a verification link (magic link) to the customer's email. This ensures that the requester is indeed the owner of the order — no third party can initiate a return for another order.
By clicking on the link, the customer sees the actual products in their order (pulled from the database, not the ones they typed in). They select which ones they want to return, with quantity and reason for return per product, and submit the request.
They immediately receive a receipt with a unique reference code, while the store is notified by its own email. All requests are managed from the admin panel,
with status change and connection to the original order.
