4 fee types that generate reimbursements

Fulfillment Fee

Wrong size tier — charged more per unit

The most common and costly error. Amazon assigns a higher size tier than your product qualifies for and applies it to every order until corrected.

Charged: $5.92 · Should be: $3.54 · Diff: $2.38/unit
Storage Fee

Wrong volume — charged more per month

Storage fees are based on cubic footage. If Amazon has wrong dimensions on file, you overpay every single month. Compounds over time and across SKUs.

Volume recorded: 2.40 cbft · Actual: 0.84 cbft · Monthly diff: $1.22
Referral Fee

Wrong category — higher % on every sale

If your ASIN is classified in the wrong category, you're paying the wrong referral fee percentage on every transaction. Electronics vs Toys is a 7-point difference.

Category: Toys (15%) · Should be: Electronics (8%) · On $39.99: $2.80 diff
Aged Inventory

Surcharge before threshold reached

Amazon sometimes applies aged inventory surcharges before your products actually hit the 181-day storage threshold. Each premature charge is recoverable.

Days stored: 172 · Threshold: 181 days · Surcharge should be: $0.00

How to find and claim your reimbursements offline

Amazon does not notify you when it overcharges you. The process to find and recover those charges must be initiated by you — before the claim window closes permanently.

Step 01

Download your FBA reports from Seller Central

Go to Reports → Fulfillment in Seller Central. Download the FBA Fee Preview Report for fee errors and the Inventory Ledger Report for lost or damaged inventory. These CSV files are the only input you need — no account setup, no API keys.

Step 02

Run the offline audit to identify every discrepancy

FBA Fee Auditor reads your CSV files locally and flags every ASIN where the charged fee does not match what Amazon's own published fee schedule says you should have paid. No data leaves your machine. Results are ready in under 60 seconds regardless of catalog size.

Step 03

Open cases in Seller Central with exact documentation

File separate cases for each fee type — fulfillment fee errors, storage fee errors, and referral fee errors. Include the specific order numbers, the amount charged, the amount that should have been charged, and the per-unit difference. Precise documentation significantly increases approval rates and speeds resolution.

What Amazon accepts as evidence

For fulfillment fee overcharges, include the ASIN, relevant order IDs, the fee charged, and the fee that should have applied per the published size tier schedule. For inventory claims, provide the shipment ID and a reconciliation showing the discrepancy between units shipped and units received by the fulfillment center.

How long does Amazon take to resolve claims?

Simple fulfillment fee overcharge claims resolve within 3–7 business days. Inventory discrepancy cases take 2–4 weeks and often require follow-up. A first-attempt denial does not mean the claim is invalid — escalate with additional documentation. Amazon's reimbursement teams review escalations separately from initial case handlers.

🎯

How much do sellers typically recover?

Sellers with 10+ active SKUs who audit quarterly typically recover $200–$800 per cycle. Sellers who audit their full catalog for the first time often find 12–18 months of accumulated overcharges across multiple fee types, with total recoveries ranging from $2,000 to $8,000. The earlier you audit after a fee change, the more of the claim window remains open.

🔒

Why your fee data should stay offline

Your FBA fee reports contain your exact margins, COGS estimates, and unit economics across every SKU. Uploading this to a SaaS platform gives a third party a complete picture of your business profitability. An offline tool processes the same data locally — identical audit results, zero exposure of your seller data to external servers.

Your 90-day window is already running.

Every day you wait is a day closer to losing the right to claim. Audit offline — in minutes.
