At Last vs ZigZag Global

At Last is a platform for automating returns and exchanges across UK and global sales channels. It is presented for retailers, brands, 3PLs, fulfilment providers, and circular technology providers. Its branded consumer portal supports tracking and exchanges, while returns workflows can look up orders automatically, provide real-time updates, use paperless labels, show embedded maps, and arrange home collection. Sell and Exchange can display products for exchanges, upsells, and new orders, with orders drafted automatically for the commerce platform. At Last International handles shipments from 200+ countries and includes customs handling and Returns Goods Relief. A business dashboard shows shipments in real time and supports returns, deliveries, and collections. Integrations include Shopify, Rithum, Mirakl, WooCommerce, and Mintsoft, with an API for other storefronts. The free Return to Zero plan includes all features but requires at least 250 monthly shipments and customer-paid returns. Starter is £95 a month; Pro is £225 a month.

ZigZag Global provides retailers with returns and post-purchase tools, along with a carrier network. Its platform supports proactive notifications, personalised tracking pages, incident detection, and logistics analytics. Retailers can offer paid returns, live exchanges, refunds to store credit, returns to stores, and returns through WhatsApp. Return Insights tracks return rates, trends, top returned products, and return reasons. Retailers can connect by API or use ready-made Shopify, BigCommerce, and Magento cartridges. ZigZag says its carrier network spans more than 3,000 carrier lanes across 170+ countries and includes customs management; its Enterprise description lists 1500+ carrier services across 170+ countries and 500k+ drop-off points. Plans include a free option for UK-based retailers handling domestic returns, with carrier charges applying, and paid monthly tiers starting at $20 a month. Enterprise pricing is based on monthly returns volume. Sustainability options listed by the company include paperless returns, in-country consolidation, local marketplace resale, and repair and recycling schemes.
