    What Volty does with Loop Returns

    Loop Returns is the returns and exchanges platform Shopify merchants use to handle what comes back. Our team connects Loop to Volty with an API key generated in Loop's Developer Tools, limited to the returns and orders scopes. Customers ask where their refund is or how to swap a size, and Volty answers from the return in Loop and links them to your returns portal.

    • Where is my refund

      Volty reads where the return is, from label created to received and refunded.

    • Exchanges explained

      Volty checks the order's exchange eligibility and window, then sends the portal link.

    • Only the customer's own returns

      Volty asks for the order number and checks it against the customer it has confirmed before reading the return.

    • Exceptions to staff

      Damaged items and returns outside the window go to the support lead you name.

    How Volty connects to Loop Returns

    Loop's REST API uses an API key sent in the X-Authorization header, with scopes chosen when the key is made. Volty needs read scopes only, through a custom connection our team builds.

    1. 01

      Generate a key in Loop

      In Loop Admin, open Returns Management, Tools & integrations, then Developer Tools, and generate an API key.

    2. 02

      Pick the scopes

      Returns and orders. Volty does not need carts, labels or webhook configuration.

    3. 03

      Approve in Volty

      An admin approves the connection once.

    4. 04

      Set the tools

      Each read tool is On, Check with staff, or Off.

    The tools Volty gets

    Each one is a switch on the Sources page in Volty.

    • Look up a return by order numberReads
    • Read return detailsReads
    • Check order eligibilityReads

    Reading tools can be turned on straight away. Anything that changes Loop Returns starts Off, and once on it can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague.

    Common questions

    Which Loop API scopes does Volty need?

    Returns and orders. An admin generates the key in Loop Admin under Returns Management, Tools & integrations, Developer Tools, and picks the scopes there. The key goes in the X-Authorization header. Volty does not need carts, label or webhook scopes, and an admin approves the connection once in Volty.

    Can Volty process or close a return in Loop?

    No. Loop's API can process, cancel or close returns, but Volty only reads them. It tells customers where a return stands and when a refund went out, and your team keeps processing returns in Loop. Exceptions such as damaged items go to a named colleague.

    Will Volty start an exchange for the customer?

    It checks the order's eligibility and the exchange window, explains the options, and sends the link to your Loop returns portal, where the customer starts the exchange. This keeps your return policy, fees and offers exactly as Loop applies them.

    How much does it cost to connect Loop Returns with Volty?

    Every Volty plan includes seats, active contacts and AI credits and starts with a free 7-day trial, and the plan prices are on voltade.com/pricing. Meta bills message charges separately for WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger.
