RTO is the biggest profit killer in ecommerce.
Wrong addresses, fake COD orders, customer refusal, courier failures, delivery delays, and poor delivery experience all contribute to high RTO rates.
A multi-layer prevention plan is essential — covering COD verification, address validation, proactive NDR handling, faster deliveries, and accurate ETAs.
