Can customers submit a return through their Shopify customer account?

Edited

Yes, customers can start a return with a single click from their order history - on your store, customers simply need to log into their Shopify customer account, select their order and directly lodge a return.

This removes the need to manually insert for order details in the returns portal, improving the customer experience.
