Return email setting

We send an email notification to you when a return request requires manual authorization. This email contains links to authorize, close, or reply to a return request.

Automate the authorization of return requests

All return requests can be manually authorized or closed through the Manage Returns section of your seller account. This is the default setting.

Depending on your account, you may have the option of automatically authorizing return requests. You will still be required to issue refunds as appropriate once you receive the return.

Set your default return request authorization rules using one of the following options:

I want Amazon to automatically authorize all requests

Each return request will be automatically authorized.

• You will be offered a choice of the length of time from the order date (maximum 30 days) for automatic authorizations

I want Amazon to automatically authorize all requests that meet Amazon Policy

All return requests that fall within the scope of the Amazon Return Policy will be authorized.

• You will be offered a choice of the length of time from the order date (maximum 30 days) for automatic authorizations
