Loop Returns pricing 2026: plans, quote checklist and cost calculator

Loop Essential starts at $155 per month and Advanced at $340 per month. Checkout+ is advertised as free. These are starting prices from the official Loop rate card, checked September 20, 2026. This is a source-based buying guide; we have not tested Loop in a merchant store.

What the published plans include

Source: Loop pricing. Ask for the exact configuration in your quote. The published starting price does not tell you every volume limit or contract condition.

Which plan should you evaluate?

Start by listing the return outcomes your customers need: a refund, a size exchange, a different product or store credit. Then ask Loop to demonstrate those outcomes using your catalog and return policy. Compare eligible Checkout+ terms alongside paid plans before assuming Advanced is the only route to exchange features.

If your main problem is manual return administration, price the operational workflow first. If the goal is retaining more margin through exchanges, evaluate the exchange flow and its extra costs. A higher exchange rate is useful only if the replacement order remains profitable after shipping, handling and incentives.

Calculate your break-even point

Use monthly total cost divided by extra contribution margin per retained order. Contribution margin here means the amount left after product cost and the variable costs of serving that order.

For an illustrative Advanced starting subscription of $340 and an assumed $20 of extra contribution per retained order, the subscription alone needs 17 additional retained orders per month to break even. This is arithmetic, not a forecast of Loop performance.

Add label costs, replacement shipping, bonus credit, staff time and any other quoted fees before making the decision. Count only orders the new workflow saves beyond what your current process already retains. Avoid treating all exchange revenue as incremental profit.

Questions to include in your quote request

• What is the total price at our normal and peak monthly return volume?
• Which features and destinations are included in this exact plan?
• Are any charges paid by shoppers? What happens if shoppers decline them?
• What are the contract length, billing schedule, renewal terms and cancellation deadline?
• Are labels, tracking, onboarding, integrations and extra usage separately charged?
• How are refunds, exchanges, store credit and international returns handled in our setup?

Our current source check does not establish a universal annual-only contract, a $272 discounted Advanced rate or a universal 10,000-order eligibility rule. Do not use those older claims as purchase assumptions. Have the vendor confirm your terms in writing.

Before switching

Run sample cases for a partial return, a discounted bundle, an out-of-stock exchange and an international order. Record both the shopper experience and the work your team still performs manually. Agree on a baseline for processing time, retained contribution and support contacts before evaluating results.
