Damaged Inventory
When a fulfillment center damages products in inventory, Amazon should reimburse the value of that product. Incidentally, this doesn’t always happen automatically.
Lost Inventory
Amazon can lose inventory. Our process identifies products Amazon loses but never reimburses the account. We file a dispute to receive the refunds you deserve.
Returns Not Sent Back
Amazon automatically deducts the amount from your seller account if a customer initiates a return. But, if the customer doesn’t return the product to Amazon, they must reimburse you.
Incomplete Return Process
Ever have a return missing a crucial part that makes the item unsellable? With no FBA refund manager monitoring your inventory, you might not receive the full reimbursement.

Are your cases automated?
All of our FBA reimbursement cases are submitted manually. Our FBA refunds manager team verifies the validity of the case before raising it with Amazon Seller Central. This ensures we operate efficiently and comply with the Amazon Terms of Service (TOS).
How can I tell the difference between the refunds received due to Refund Retriever's effort vs the random credits I receive from Amazon with no action on my part?
When we set your Amazon FBA seller account up for Amazon Refunds, you will have an additional Amazon Seller Central case ID generated by our Amazon refunds manager staff. We will only charge a fee for recoveries and refunds obtained through that case ID.
Any other Amazon refund reimbursements you may receive, whether generated by your staff or Amazon, will not be included in our reporting and fees.
How far back can you audit my Amazon Seller/Vendor Central Account?
From the start date, our team will manually audit all of your storefront data from the last 18 months. This is the furthest Amazon’s FBA Reimbursement Policy will allow you to claim for discrepancies. Amazon has a limited 9-month window for inbound shipment claims. We’ll sniff through all of your data to make sure you are properly reimbursed for any discrepancies that haven’t been auto-reconciled by Amazon, or by a member of your team!
What types of cases do we cover for FBA sellers?
We audit your entire Amazon inventory lifecycle for:
-
- Missing from inbound
- Lost inventory
- Damaged inventory
- Disposed of inventory
- Return issues
- Open product returns
- Empty product returns
- Incorrect product returns
- Much more
Can I turn off the inbound shipment auditing - I can do this myself?
While we don’t recommend this, it is something we can do. Keep in mind, Amazon has a 9 month window for inbound shipment claims.
What are your fees?
The Amazon refunds manager service fee is 30% of the refunds recovered by our team. If we find you nothing, you owe us nothing!
What do I need to start reimbursement recovery?
You will need to create a limited-access user account on Amazon Seller Central for your case manager. This will allow the case manager to access only the necessary functions, such as reporting and support case management.
What if I already submitted a Amazon Refund claim on my own?
We only charge you for Amazon Refund claims initiated by your case manager. We will not take credit for your submitted cases or reimbursements undertaken by Amazon.
