How to Return Item in Lazada: Beginner’s Guide

by

Lazada is by far one of the best online shopping platforms in the Philippines offering tons of goods from everyday needs to quirky finds.

However, if you have been shopping with Lazada a couple of times, and encountered something unexpected like receiving the wrong item, don’t worry.

Lazada offers their shoppers to return items they have purchased that they are unsatisfied with or other related issues.

So if you are wondering how to return an item in Lazada, read through to understand the process.

How does return work in Lazada?

Although Lazada accommodates the return concern of their shoppers, it is as expected that the process would be troublesome.

Since just like any other business Lazada follows a return procedure, you cannot return the product directly to the delivery guy upon discovering the issue.

Instead, you have to inform them about the wrong or defective product and wait for their acknowledgment for return.

Afterward, you can head to the nearest LBC center to conduct the return process.

In addition, Lazada will also notify you if you would like to request a replacement or a refund.

So make sure to check your email, or your return request will be automatically designated for a refund.

If you requested a replacement, you may also encounter the issue of the SKU being out of stock.

On the other hand, just like requesting a replacement, a refund request will also last several days to process.

Once your refund has been granted, you can get a voucher that expires within a month or a year after the issued date.

Most importantly, if you are returning an item paid through COD the refunds will be transferred to your Lazada Wallet.
