liiteGuard's story

Founded in Denmark in 2016, liiteGuard is a sportswear brand driven by a passion for performance and a commitment to quality. Their mission is to create gear that empowers, inspires, and protects every athlete.

Today, liiteGuard is a leading running brand with a strong community and loyal following.

The manual returns process

liiteGuard has grown quickly since 2016. As sales rose, returns became more frequent and complex. Managing everything manually, from restocking to refunds and exchanges, made it hard to stay efficient and learn from returns data.

QUOTE 1: what was the problem with the process before Float - and why did you want something smoother?

For customers, exchanging a product meant returning it first and then placing a new order. This created friction, and only 9% completed the extra step to reorder.

QUOTE 2: Why was it a problem not having a good way of handling exchanges? e.g. customer experience + lost revenue?

To keep up with growth and maintain high standards, liiteGuard looked for a simpler, more efficient returns process that worked better for both their team and customers while driving more exchanges.

The impact

The liiteGuard team highlighted three key results:


Revenue retained. Previously, only 9% of customers placed a new order after the return. Now, that number has increased to 46% - without adding extra work for the team.

Faster processing. Several return workflows are now fully automated, cutting down processing time.

Smarter insights. With automated return data, the team gets a clear view of what’s coming back and why. These insights now inform product design, construction, descriptions, and sizing - helping reduce returns and improve conversion.
