Challenge

The GetReturns team had already launched a working mobile application, but as user feedback came in, it was clear the platform needed thoughtful updates to stay competitive. Customers were frustrated by rigid provider options, clunky promo code behavior, and a confusing QR code upload process for Amazon returns. Operationally, the product team also needed to introduce new membership options, like an annual pass, and revamp onboarding flows, all without overwhelming existing users or overhauling the core experience.

Solution

Motomtech’s Technology Department as a Service joined the project during the planning of the Hunter Release, offering deep support in product strategy, feature scoping, and UX definition.

Phase 1

Conceptualization

Our Product Owner worked closely with GetReturns stakeholders to prioritize improvements across the mobile app and coordinate a clear, achievable roadmap for implementation. We helped define a smarter pickup request experience by allowing users to choose “Amazon” as a delivery provider, upload QR codes for open package drop-offs, and preserve their field selections while navigating promo code flows. This not only reduced user friction but made returns for Amazon customers much more seamless.

Phase 2

Software Planning

In the membership section, we introduced a new annual plan option with support for promo codes and ensured membership visibility would always reflect the user’s most current plan. We also helped redesign the onboarding flow to educate users on the different return options available, especially the distinction between Amazon and non-Amazon packaging requirements.

Phase 3

Transformation

Throughout the process, Motomtech acted as a direct extension of the GetReturns team, transforming raw requirements into structured documentation, clickable prototypes, and a clear release strategy. Our involvement ensured that development could move fast with minimal back-and-forth and that features aligned tightly with real-world user needs.
