What to include
Include the current status, the reason if useful, one next step, and the support or policy route for edge cases.
Where it fits
This wording is intended for a Shopify return received email where processing time can create customer anxiety.
What to avoid
Avoid guaranteed arrival dates, instant tracking promises, unconditional refunds, or claims that the store cannot confirm.
Email wording checklist
- Say what is known now.

- Keep policy and support links visible.
