Our take
Recent figures show that 40% of online purchases result in a return, and 50% of those returned items go straight to the landfill. Ante is an online returns wallet that creates better incentives for customers and merchants, significantly improving the returns experiences across the board.
The typical returns process is time-consuming and inconvenient, and refunds can take 7+ days. Ante is upending eCommerce and marketplace returns, making customer returns effortless, driving new revenue for merchants, and making reverse logistics 100% carbon neutral.
By creating better incentives for both customers and merchants, Ante is set to change the eCommerce market in a big, and sustainable, way.
