Online marketplace Luxepolis is venturing into the trend by utilizing Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to tackle the problem of returns. Luxepolis sells products ranging from designer apparel to high-end automobiles. The company uses near-field communication (NFC) enabled tag and reader to decipher codes that are unique to every product in order to validate the returned item.
