## Descripción

⚖️ **A WooCommerce refunds, returns & RMA plugin built for the new EU right of withdrawal—
and it’s free.**

**Smart Refunds & Returns** turns order cancellations, refunds and returns into 
a smooth self-service flow: shoppers **cancel an order or request a refund** on 
their own — as a **guest** from the **WooCommerce order-tracking page**, or from**
My Account** — and every request is recorded as a proper **EU right-of-withdrawal
declaration**. A complete **refund, return and RMA desk**, built right into WooCommerce.

Since **19 June 2026**, Directive (EU) 2023/2673 asks online stores across the EU
to give shoppers a clear way to withdraw from a purchase and to send them a confirmation
with the **exact date and time, on a durable medium**. Most refund, return and RMA
plugins were never designed around that obligation. **Smart Refunds & Returns was—
from the very first line of code.**

Every return runs as a proper **declaration of withdrawal**, not a vague “request”,
and every submission fires an automatic, **timestamped acknowledgement email** —
the durable-medium record the directive is looking for.

> 💡 _This is a tool to help you comply — it is not legal advice. Always check your
> own country’s transposition of the directive._

That single capability is where most competitors fall short, and it’s where your
store gets to stand out. 🌍 Then it gets even better for your customers 👇

#### 👤 True guest returns — no account, no password

The feature most refund plugins quietly skip. A guest opens your standard WooCommerce**
order-tracking page**, types the order number and billing email they already have,
and can **cancel the order or start a return right there** — secured by a **signed
access token**, so their email never appears in a URL or in the page source. No 
forced sign-up. No endless email ping-pong. Registered customers get the same **
cancel-order / refund-request** flow from **My Account**.

#### 💶 You always keep control of the money

The plugin runs the return workflow, the statuses and the customer emails — but 
it **never touches your funds**. It can’t know how you agreed to refund each customer(
card, cash, bank transfer, store credit), so it **never creates a WooCommerce refund
or a coupon on its own**. No accidental double refunds. Your cash, your call. 🔒

#### 🧩 Native WooCommerce — nothing new to learn

Every return is a real WooCommerce order status with its own panel on the order 
edit screen. No separate dashboard, no new mental model. If your team knows WooCommerce,
they already know this. ⚡

#### ✨ Everything you get in the free plugin

 * ⚖️ **EU-withdrawal-ready flow** with a timestamped acknowledgement email on a
   durable medium
 * 🛑 **One-click “Cancel order” button** on the order-tracking page and in My Account—
   the customer’s entry point to a refund or return
 * 👤 **Guest returns & refund requests** from the order-tracking page, secured 
   by a signed token
 * 📝 `[smart_refund_form]` shortcode for a clean, standalone return page
 * 🧱 **Unlimited-field form builder** — text, textarea, checkbox, radio and select,
   drag-and-drop
 * 🗂️ **Five return statuses** (requested, approved, completed, cancelled, refused)—
   plus reopening a closed return at any time, silently
 * 🖥️ **Record & edit a return straight from the order screen** — perfect for requests
   that arrive by phone or email
 * 📧 **Customer status emails**, with per-change control over whether one is sent
 * 📨 **Multi-recipient admin emails** — warehouse _and_ finance, on the same notification
 * 🔗 Return-policy link inside the emails
 * 🚀 **HPOS** and **block cart/checkout** compatible

Nothing above is a teaser. It’s all fully functional, with no metering, no time 
limit and no licence to enter.

## Instalación

 1. Upload the plugin through **Plugins > Add New**, or copy it to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Go to **WooCommerce > Settings > Smart Refunds** and enable the return button.
 4. Build your return form under the **Refund Form** section.
 5. Optional standalone guest page: create a page containing the `[smart_refund_form]`
    shortcode and select it in the refund-form-page setting.
 6. Confirm you have a WooCommerce order-tracking page (`[woocommerce_order_tracking]`)—
    that’s where guests cancel an order or start a return.

## Preguntas frecuentes

### Does it help me comply with the EU right of withdrawal?

The customer-facing flow is built as a **declaration of withdrawal** and sends a
timestamped acknowledgement on a durable medium, designed with Directive (EU) 2023/
2673 in mind (applicable from 19 June 2026). It’s a tool to help you — not legal
advice. Please verify your own obligations and your country’s transposition.

### Can customers cancel an order or request a refund themselves?

Yes. A “Cancel order” button appears on the WooCommerce order-tracking page and 
in My Account, and it takes the customer straight into the refund/return flow — 
no back-and-forth emails needed.

### Do customers need an account to start a return?

No. Guests start a return from the WooCommerce order-tracking page using their order
number and billing email. Registered customers can also use My Account. Guest access
is secured by a signed token, so the email is never exposed in the URL.

### Does the plugin refund the money automatically?

No, and that’s deliberate. It can’t know how you agreed to refund each customer,
so it never creates a WooCommerce refund or a coupon on its own. You settle the 
refund however you agreed, then mark the return completed.

### Does it work with HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)?

Yes. The plugin declares compatibility with WooCommerce custom order tables and 
with the block-based cart and checkout.

### Where do returns show up in the admin?

Each return sets a dedicated status on the order and adds a panel to the order edit
screen, where you move it through your workflow. Returns also get their own filter
in the WooCommerce Orders list.

### Is there a Pro version, and is the free one crippled?

There’s a Pro version, and no — the free plugin is fully functional. Pro is a **
separate plugin**, not an unlock code, so nothing here is disabled waiting for a
licence. Pro adds the full RMA workflow with an email for every step, conditional
visibility, partial returns, shipping and fee refunds, and the upload / multi-select/
HTML field types. See the [Pro page](https://wpsolutionsplus.com/product/smart-refunds-returns-for-woocommerce/).
