Top 7 FBA Reimbursement Tools for Amazon Sellers

Share the Post:

With millions of products handled and shipped every day by Amazon, there are bound to be mistakes. As an FBA seller, those mistakes can cost you in the form of excess FBA fees.

The good news is that there are many eligible reasons for inventory reimbursements for FBA sellers. Recovering those funds can lead to a 1%-3% increase in profit.

The bad news is that you must identify the FBA error and file the proper claim. 

Identifying, documenting, and preparing claims can be a tedious time-consuming process. That’s where FBA reimbursement tools come in. These tools are designed to streamline and automate (to some degree) the process of filing FBA claims for reimbursements.

As an Amazon FBA seller recovering lost funds is an important component of your business model for maximizing profits.

In this article, we discuss what you need to know about FBA reimbursement tools, including the features to look for and a list of the top-rated companies worth considering.

What is an FBA reimbursement tool?

An Amazon FBA reimbursement tool is a third-party software that audits, monitors, identifies, and helps recover mischarged fees and damaged inventory. Typically, the software syncs with your FBA account to perform the analysis and identification through some proprietary process. 

Identified discrepancies are then addressed by preparing claims and the required supporting documentation. Those claims are then submitted either manually, or in an automated process to Amazon following the applicable process for the claim type (yes there are different processes for different claims).

These tools can be stand-alone products you purchase to manage your FBA reimbursements or be part of a reimbursement service focused on recovering your lost funds for you. 

Top features to look for in an FBA reimbursement tool

  • Covers the maximum amount of FBA fee errors – different fee errors require different claim processes per the FBA inventory reimbursement policy. Be sure the tool you choose covers them all.
  • New error types are continuously added – the size and scope of Amazon’s services mean that things are constantly changing, including the types of errors that become eligible for reimbursement. The tool you decide on should stay up to date with Amazon’s policies.
  • Robust reporting on claim status – submitted claims require approval and pending claims may involve communications with Amazon. A robust reporting interface will help keep track of everything.
  • Claims are not sent manually – Amazon prefers claims be submitted manually. It is in your interest that the tool you choose follows this preference.
