"Quality Refund Rate"  measures the ratio of orders refunded due to quality reasons to all the orders approved during the evaluation period. 

Metric Calculation 

The system starts calculating the metric for the first time, when there are at least 100 orders during an evaluation period. If there are not enough orders, the metric will get the N/A (not available) status. 

Once the metric has been calculated for the first time, it will be calculated continuously even if there are not enough orders in the next evaluation period. 

Calculation includes the orders shipped both offline and online and refunded due to the following reasons: 

• Wrong Product;
• Wrong Color;
• Wrong Size;
• Wrong Quantity;
• Bad Quality;
• Damaged;
• Minor Problems;
• Product Is Different from Images.

⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: This metric also includes partly refunded orders.

Evaluation Period 

The evaluation period covers two weeks: starting from the 104th day and ending 90 days before the current date.

Quality Refund Rate Statuses

There are four statuses for Quality Refund Rate: Perfect, Average, Poor and Critical. 

The limits for the metrics' statuses are the following:
