🤓 Amazon Pro Tip

If you are an Amazon Vendor, you may know by now that there’s an elephant in the room called Amazon Chargebacks aka Compensation Payments.

That means that there are a series of requirements for Vendors and, if you fail to comply, Amazon will issue a compensation payment.

There are lots of types. The following list is taken from this awesome Amalytix post:

• Import Documents Late Delivery

• Import Shipment Late Booking

• Import PO On-Time Non-Compliance

• Prep Issues

• Ship in own Container

• Carton Content Accuracy

• Overage PO Units

• ASN Accuracy

• Paper Invoice

• PO On-Time Accuracy

• Rejected Delivery

• No show

Good news: most of this chargebacks can be fought so you get your money back and we found a company that is fighting those cases for you: Chargeguard
