Let customers cancel their own unfulfilled orders with a couple of clicks and stop shipping orders they no longer want. Every store gets them: the orders someone regrets almost immediately. Wrong size, changed their mind, bought twice by accident. The sooner a customer can undo that themselves, the fewer orders you pack and ship that only come back as a return.

Froonze fixes that with the Cancel Order Button plugin. Add a clear cancel button to your customers' orders, and they can cancel any unfulfilled order themselves before it ships, without waiting on your team.

Froonze Cancellations: Overview and Features

The Froonze Cancel Order Button plugin adds a self-serve cancellation option to your customers' unfulfilled orders. It works on its own, or alongside the rest of the Froonze suite, and it's priced as a single flat plan no matter how big your store is.

Froonze Cancellations Overview

Setup takes a minute. Subscribe to the plugin from the app dashboard, then install it in the Checkout and Accounts Editor, and it will be added to both the orders page and the order status page. If you already run the Froonze Account widget, the cancel button is automatically added to every unfulfilled order; no extra work needed.

When a customer clicks Cancel order, they confirm in a short dialog, and the cancellation goes through. The customers handle it themselves, in one step. You decide how it behaves: send the items back into stock automatically, and require the customer to tell you why they're cancelling.

Froonze Cancellations Features

  • Direct self-serve cancellation
    Customers cancel their own unfulfilled orders in a couple of clicks, no back-and-forth, no waiting on support. On your side, there's nothing to review or approve. The cancellation is already done.
  • Automatic restocking
    Choose to send cancelled items straight back into your inventory, so your stock counts stay accurate without manual cleanup. (Requires stock managed by Shopify.)
  • Cancellation reason capture
    Make the cancellation reason field required so that every cancellation includes feedback. Find out why customers are cancelling, then fix the pattern.
  • Visibility rules by tags
    Show or hide the cancel button based on customer tags or order tags. Offer cancellations to some customers or order types and not others, fully under your control.
  • Multi-language support and word rephrasing
    Translate the button and its messages into any language Shopify supports, and reword any customer-facing text to match your brand's voice.
  • Quick install and flat pricing
    $4/month, one plan, one price, regardless of store size or monthly order volume. Set it up in under a minute. Setup guide here.
The Cancel Order Button is built to improve the cancellation experience for your customers. It is NOT built to satisfy the EU's digital withdrawal button requirement (Directive 2023/2673). If you sell to consumers in the European Union and need a compliant withdrawal feature specifically, this plugin isn't the tool for that job, and we'd rather tell you that upfront than have you find out later.

Frequently asked questions

How is the Froonze cancel order button different from Shopify's built-in cancellations?

Shopify's native self-serve cancellations work as a request: the customer submits it, and you review and approve or decline each one in your admin. The Froonze Cancel Order Button lets the customer cancel unfulfilled orders directly, with optional automatic restocking, so there's nothing for you to process. It can also be limited by customer or order tags.

Where does the Froonze cancel order button appear?

On unfulfilled orders. Install it in the Shopify Checkout and Accounts Editor, and it appears on the orders page and the order status page. If you also run the Froonze Account widget, it's added to the orders tab automatically, no extra setup needed.

Can I control which customers or orders can be cancelled?

Yes, you can show the button only to customers or orders with specific tags, or hide it for specific customers or order types. The button also only ever appears on unfulfilled orders, so already-shipped orders can't be cancelled.

Will cancelled items go back into my inventory?

They can. Turn on the restocking option and cancelled items are returned to your Shopify-managed inventory automatically.

Are customers refunded when they cancel?

Yes. When a customer cancels an unfulfilled order, the refund is issued automatically, so there's no manual step on your end. Combined with automatic restocking, a cancellation resolves itself completely: the customer gets their money back, and the items return to your inventory.

Does the Froonze cancel order button help with EU withdrawal button compliance?

No, the plugin improves the cancellation experience for customers, but it is not designed to comply with the EU's digital withdrawal button requirement under Directive 2023/2673. If legal compliance is your goal, this is not the feature for it.

Is the Froonze cancel order button easy to install?

Yes. Subscribe to the plugin, then open the Shopify Checkout and Accounts Editor using the direct link in your Cancel Order dashboard, click the plus button next to the block to add it, and save. If you run the Froonze Account widget, it also appears there automatically. You can check the full setup guide on the Froonze Help Center.

How fast does Froonze support respond?

Our support team is recognised for its efficient and effective response time. Merchants often feel as if our support team is an extension of their store rather than "just app support". The 5-star rating on our Shopify App Store listing is a testimonial to that.
