Add New Return Policy

Admins can create new return policies or modify existing ones directly from the OpenCart Etsy Marketplace Module. Moreover, this provides flexibility to manage different return rules based on business requirements without needing to log in to Etsy separately.

Using the Return Policy Sync cron, admins can fetch all available return policies from Etsy into the OpenCart store.

Profile Mapping

Within the profile mapping section, admins can select and assign a return policy to products under a specific category. This makes it easy to manage return rules in bulk rather than applying them individually to each product.

Automatic Updates

When a category is added or updated within a mapped profile, the assigned return policy is automatically applied to the product of the categories mapped on Etsy. This ensures consistency between the OpenCart store and Etsy listings, reduces manual work, and helps maintain compliance with Etsy’s policies.
