Can you explain the difference between a RA and a credit memo?

Sure thing! A return authorization (RA) is a number that is generated which authorizes you to return item(s) to us. A credit memo is a dollar amount that is generated when your claim for a return, damage or freight charge is processed.

What is the process for obtaining a RA?

Contact either your Account Executive or Customer Service at wholesale@freepeople.com. When we approve you to return your merchandise, a RA is issued. You can then ship your merchandise to our warehouse at 766 Brackbill Road, Gap, PA 17527. Please make sure the RA number is visible on the outside of the shipment.

How long is my RA valid for?

Your RA is valid for 30 days from the date it is issued, so please complete your return as soon as possible!

How do I get a credit memo for a refund?

Once the warehouse processes your authorized return, a credit memo is generated. For accounts on credit card terms, we will refund your credit card on file at the end of the week that the credit memo was issued. For accounts on Net 30 terms, we will post a credit memo to your account upon completion of processing your return.

How do I apply a credit memo to my account?

Contact our Credit Team at payments@freepeople.com to utilize your credit memo. Please note that your credit memo must be applied to the invoice from which your style was returned.

I received damaged goods what should I do?

Claims for damaged or missing items must be made within 10 days after receipt of merchandise and should be submitted to Customer Service at wholesale@freepeople. Once your damage request has been approved and credit memo issued, accounts on credit card terms will receive a refund to the credit card on file at the end of the week that the credit memo was issued. For accounts on Net 30 terms, we will post a credit memo to your account. Your damage credit memo may be used on any future invoice.
