The blind spot in default Shopify reporting
Native Shopify analytics are built around the order event. When an order lands, revenue is recognized, and the report is updated. That is fine for a topline view, but it hides the reality that a meaningful percentage of that revenue is going to come back through the returns portal over the following weeks. For a brand with a 20% return rate, the difference between reported revenue and settled revenue can be enormous.
Reversify solves this by treating the return as a first-class event. Every revenue and margin number in the platform is computed net of returns for the relevant cohort. When you look at a channel's performance in Reversify, you are looking at the version of that number your CFO would recognize.
