When an order goes wrong, customers don’t want forms, delays, or excuses—they want it fixed. Fast.
Swipe.AI makes that possible by automating how order issues are detected, decided, and resolved from start to finish.
In this guide, we’ll walk through how Swipe.AI automates order issues—covering every step in the lifecycle:
from identifying a lost or damaged order to issuing a refund or reshipment automatically.
What Counts as an “Order Issue”?
Order issues are any unexpected problems that prevent customers from getting what they paid for.
They’re more common than most brands realize—and often the biggest driver of customer frustration.
Lost, Damaged, Stolen, Wrong Item, Missing Item, Delays
Here are the most common types of order issues Swipe.AI handles automatically:
- Lost package: Tracking shows no delivery after a long delay.
- Damaged package: Customer provides photo proof of damaged goods.
- Stolen package (porch piracy): Delivery marked “delivered,” but item is gone.
- Wrong item: Customer received something they didn’t order.
- Missing item: Part of the order never arrived.
- Delivery delay: Shipment is stuck or severely delayed in transit.
Every one of these can trigger the AI claims automation process within Swipe.AI—turning hours of manual support work into seconds.
The Automation Stack at a Glance
Swipe.AI connects every piece of the post-purchase workflow into one seamless automation stack. Here’s how it all works behind the scenes.
- Intake: Captures order issue data via smart forms or API connections.
- Enrichment: Pulls carrier and order details (tracking, timestamps, product info).
- Decisioning: Uses business rules and machine learning to assess validity and next steps.
- Resolution: Executes the correct outcome—refund, reshipment, or credit—instantly.
- Reporting: Logs claim outcomes, metrics, and CX insights for your dashboard.
This end-to-end post-purchase automation removes repetitive work and delivers quick, reliable resolutions.
Claims Intake Without Friction
The intake stage is where speed meets simplicity. Swipe.AI replaces long claim forms and manual verification with automated tools that make filing a claim effortless—for both the customer and your team.
Smart Forms, Auto-Populate Order Data, Fraud Checks
- Smart forms: The system identifies eligible orders automatically—no need for a ticket.
- Auto-populated data: Customer info, product details, and tracking numbers fill in instantly.
- Built-in fraud checks: Duplicate or suspicious claims get flagged in real time.
With these steps automated, customers get faster resolutions while your support team avoids manual back-and-forth.
Decisioning: Rules + AI
Once a claim is submitted, Swipe.AI’s decisioning engine takes over. It analyzes the data, cross-checks tracking events, and applies your policies automatically.
- Evidence pulls: Retrieves carrier updates, delivery photos, or customer uploads.
- Policy logic: Matches claim data to your brand’s refund and replacement rules.
- Risk scoring: Assigns confidence scores using AI trained on thousands of outcomes.
This mix of logic and learning ensures fair, consistent, and instant decisions—without human bottlenecks.
Instant Outcomes
Automation shines when it produces real results fast. Swipe.AI executes next steps instantly once a decision is made—keeping customers informed every step of the way.
- Auto-approve low-risk claims: Straightforward cases are resolved immediately.
- Escalate edge cases: Complicated situations go to your team for review.
- Notify customer: Automated emails or SMS updates confirm each step.
This CX automation minimizes WISMO (“Where is my order?”) tickets and builds trust by communicating clearly and fast.
Refunds vs Reshipments
Every order issue doesn’t need a refund. Swipe.AI intelligently decides when to refund or when to reship, based on your inventory and policy preferences.
- Refund logic: If the item is discontinued or out of stock, the system issues an instant refund.
- Reship logic: If inventory is available, a new order is created automatically.
- Inventory sync: Connects to Shopify to check availability in real time.
With refund automation and reship automation, you maintain revenue integrity and reduce unnecessary costs.
