Swap Commerce and AIMS360: returns that land in the ERP

Swap runs returns, shipping and cross-border selling for direct to consumer brands. AIMS360 is the system the returned item comes back into: the RMA, the receiving by style, color and size, the restock and the credit. This page covers how the two fit and what to settle before your first Swap return.

The short answer

Does AIMS360 work with Swap Commerce?

Yes. AIMS360 lists Swap Commerce among the returns platforms it connects to, alongside Loop, ReturnGO and Redo. Swap runs the shopper's return and the label. AIMS360 holds the return authorization, receives the goods by style, color and size, restocks them and raises the credit.

The exact handoff for your account, such as when the RMA opens, where the refund is issued and which system restocks, is set during implementation. Settle it with the AIMS360 team before your first Swap return, the same way brands do for the other returns platforms.

What Swap is

Swap Commerce, in brief

Described from Swap's own published material. Confirm current products with Swap.

01

An operations platform for DTC

Swap describes itself as one system for global selling, returns and tax. It was founded in 2022 by Sam Atkinson and Zach Bailet.

02

Returns and exchanges

A returns product built to turn returns into exchanges and store credit, with return labels and protection funded at checkout.

03

Cross-border and shipping

Swap Global adds duties paid shipping, tax remittance and customs clearance, and its Ship product covers multi-carrier rates and labels.

04

What AIMS360 adds

The returned unit comes back into the stock record every channel sells from, with the credit in receivables and the reason against the style.

What to settle

Five questions to answer before go-live

Every returns platform answers these differently. The Loop, ReturnGO and Redo pages show how each one works with AIMS360, which makes a useful checklist for Swap.

Question to settle How the other platforms do it
When does the AIMS360 RMA open? Loop and Redo open it when the shopper submits. ReturnGO opens it when you approve the return.
Who restocks? AIMS360, on all three. Restocking is left off in the returns app so stock moves once.
Where is the refund issued? Loop refunds from the RMA credit. Redo refunds in Shopify after the credit memo. ReturnGO refunds in ReturnGO.
How is the open credit cleared? An A/R adjustment, or applying the credit to an exchange invoice, through receivables.
Where is an exchange order created? ReturnGO and Redo create it in Shopify, and it imports into AIMS360 like any Shopify order.
Setup

Connecting Swap to AIMS360, in order

  1. Set up Swap on your store

    Configure Swap returns with your policies, return reasons and resolution options.

  2. Book the AIMS360 implementation team

    Agree the handoff for your account: when the RMA opens, who refunds, who restocks and how exchanges come back.

  3. Agree the AIMS360 defaults

    The other returns integrations use a dedicated AIMS360 login, a default receiving warehouse and a return reason, so returns are easy to find. Agree the same for Swap.

  4. Make sure stock moves once

    If AIMS360 restocks, the returns app should not, or the item is counted twice.

  5. Test a return and an exchange

    Run one of each end to end, through receiving, the credit and receivables, before you switch it on for every order.
