To start using your return portal, it is as simple as pasting the URL generated after publishing your portal into your webshop.
To do so, we provide you two options, a general link, that can be used anywhere in your website, or a deep link, that can be used in your customers' accounts.
Return Portal link
The Return portal link is the link direct to the login page. The customer must enter orderID and Email to access the Product overview page.
Structure of Return Portal link
http://www.return-parcel.com/<hash-id>
Deeplink
Deeplinking enables skipping of the first screen (Login) and lands the customer directly on the product overview screen.
The deep link is an embedded return portal URL which can only be used by shops that have a designated user account section on their websites. It can only be placed in the user's account section (e.g. embedded widgets). This link will allow the customer to directly login to the portal from the online shop, since the email and order ID verification will happen when opening the link.
Structure of Deeplink
The <text> is a placeholder
https://return-parcel.com/<hash-key>?order=<orderId>&email=<CustomerEmailAddress>
What is <hash-key> in the deeplink?
- The unique id on a localization level and country or region of return parcel
What is the order id in the deeplink?
- It is the OrderID, that you send via the API
What is the email in the deeplink?
- It is the customer email, that you send via the API
Example structure of deeplink:
https://www.return-parcel.com/98346897fhi48?order=123&email=test@example.com
