You meant to return it. And then life happened — the box went under the couch, the deadline drifted into next week, and the money slipped through. Roundtrip Returns is the calm, private place where every return deadline lives, so the one you forgot becomes the one you actually finished. WHAT IT DOES • Tracks the return window for every retailer you shop with • Sends gentle reminders before each window closes • Color-codes urgency so the about-to-expire ones can't hide • Hands you off to the retailer's own returns site when you're ready, with a quick pre-flight checklist • Email forwarding (optional) — forward an order email to your private address, and the return shows up parsed and ready WE NEVER READ YOUR INBOX Privacy is the whole point. • Manual entry is free forever — no account, no email setup needed • Email forwarding is opt-in — we only see what YOU forward, never your other email • We never connect to Gmail, Outlook, or iCloud • Sign in with Apple supported, including Apple's private email relay • Your data syncs across your devices when signed in • You can export everything as JSON or delete it all in one tap WHAT YOU SEE ON THE DASHBOARD • "This week" — the urgent stuff, color-coded rust • "Coming up" — the next two to four weeks • "On track" — plenty of time • A running total of what you've recovered this year DESIGNED FOR REAL LIFE Beautiful warm cream typography, no busy notifications, no nagging, no pressure. The app exists to do one thing well: keep the deadline visible before it expires. PRIVATE BY DESIGN We don't use third-party trackers. We don't show ads. We don't sell or share your data. Your forwarded receipts are deleted from our servers 7 days after parsing — we keep only the structured return data you actually use. Made with care.
