ReturnRadar
Never miss a return, warranty or cancellation.
Track return windows, warranties and subscription / free-trial cancellations, and get a local reminder before each deadline, with no bank link and no email scraping.
- Pay once No subscription, ever
- 100% local No tracking, no analytics
- No account No sign-up, no email
Never miss a return, a warranty, OR a subscription cancellation. ReturnRadar quietly watches your deadlines: the day a return window closes, the day a warranty expires, and the day a free trial converts to a paid plan. It reminds you locally, before it’s too late. No account. No bank link. No email scraping. Just a calm radar for the deadlines that cost you money.
What ReturnRadar does
- Return deadlines. Open an order or confirmation page, click Track this page, and ReturnRadar looks up the retailer’s return window from a curated, bundled dataset of 240+ stores, then sets a local reminder a few days before it closes. It even handles holiday-season extensions and per-store quirks.
- Warranties. Add a warranty length and ReturnRadar reminds you before coverage lapses, with correct month-end math, so a January-31 purchase lands on the right date.
- Subscriptions & free trials. Track any recurring charge and get a subscription cancellation reminder before it renews. Tracking a free trial? ReturnRadar reminds you so you can cancel before renewal, and before the trial auto-converts to paid. It understands monthly, annual, weekly and custom billing cycles and rolls the next renewal forward correctly across months and years.
Everything recomputes from the raw facts you store, so the dashboard always shows an accurate “cancel by” or “return by” countdown.
Why it’s different
Generic reminder and to-do apps make you type everything yourself: the store, the policy, the exact deadline. Automated money-back tools like Earny or Rocket Money do a lot, but they’re bank- and email-linked, reading your transactions and inbox just to find your subscriptions.
ReturnRadar takes the honest middle path. It derives deadlines from a curated dataset of retailer return policies and common subscription services, so you don’t hand-type policy windows, and it does all of it 100% locally, with no bank connection and no email access.
Private by design
ReturnRadar uses activeTab only and requests no host permissions, reading a page only when you click Track this page. There’s no bank link and no email link: it never connects to your accounts, transactions or inbox. Reminders run on Chrome’s local alarms; your tracked items live in local storage. Nothing is uploaded, because there’s no server to upload to.
One-time price, no subscription
Here’s the small irony we’ll own with a smile: a tool that reminds you to cancel subscriptions is itself a one-time purchase, no subscription. The free tier tracks up to 5 purchases plus 2 subscriptions; Pro ($9 one-time) adds unlimited items, warranty tracking, subscription & free-trial reminders, and calendar (.ics) and CSV export, with a 31-day Pro trial.

ReturnRadar: common questions
Does ReturnRadar link my bank or email?
No. It never connects to your bank, transactions or inbox. It derives deadlines from a bundled dataset and the page you choose to track, and nothing else.
Can it remind me to cancel a free trial before it charges me?
Yes. Add the free-trial end date and ReturnRadar alerts you with your chosen lead time, so you can cancel before it auto-converts to a paid plan.
How does it know the return window?
From a curated dataset of 240+ retailer return policies, with holiday-season extensions and per-store notes. Policies change, so ReturnRadar always says to verify with the retailer and lets you edit any deadline.
Is it really private?
Yes. ReturnRadar uses activeTab only, requests no host permissions, stores everything locally, and sends nothing to any server. There is no analytics and there are no remote resources.
Is ReturnRadar a subscription?
No. It is a one-time purchase. A cancellation reminder that charged you every month would be in poor taste.
- A simple system so you never miss a return window again Returns, warranties and free-trial cancellations all have quiet deadlines. A light system to track them, and how to get a reminder before the window closes.
- Subscription trackers that do not need your bank login Bank-linked trackers read every transaction to find subscriptions. Private trackers see only what you add. The honest trade-off, and a better moment to track.
Why one-time, and why private
Most useful little tools are sold as a subscription you resent, or are free because you are the product. Neither sits right with us, so here is the trade we make instead.
-
Pay once, own it
One purchase, then it is yours. No recurring fee, no renewal you forgot about, no premium tier holding your own work hostage. The price you see is the whole price, and a license covers up to three of your devices.
-
Your data stays with you
Each tool asks for the fewest permissions it needs and does its work inside your browser. No analytics, no telemetry, no account to leak. The only call a paid extension ever makes is a license check to our own server, carrying your key and a random device id and nothing else. Your content never leaves your device.

Works in every Chromium browser
The extensions install and behave the same in Chrome, Brave, Edge, Opera, Vivaldi and Arc. The two games are self-contained HTML5 that also run offline and install as an app.
