What is Amazon Reimbursement? How does it work?
When Amazon reimburses you, they pay back the cost of damaged or lost goods in their fulfillment center. Amazon will also pay you back for how much it costs you to ship the item to them.
First, you’ll need to list everything that was lost or broken. Then you will need to figure out how much each item costs. After you’ve done this, you’ll need to get in touch with Amazon and tell them what happened. Amazon will then examine your claim and decide whether or not they will pay you back for the items. If your claim is accepted, they will send you a check for the amount you are owed. Remember that getting your money back from Amazon can take up to two weeks, so be patient.
Also, Amazon might not approve all claims, so you need to make sure you have all the proof you need before you send in your claim.
Amazon Owes You Big Time!
If you’re an Amazon seller, you know that figuring out reimbursements can be a real pain. It’s time-consuming and seems like Amazon owes you way more than they actually do. But if you’re willing to do the work, claiming FBA reimbursement cases can recover up to 3% of your monthly revenue on average!
That’s because Amazon often owes sellers more money than they realize. So if you’re looking to get back some of the money that Amazon owes you, be sure to claim your FBA reimbursement cases. It’ll take some time, but it’s definitely worth it in the end. Thanks for reading!

What Kinds of Amazon FBA Reimbursements Are There?
You can ask Amazon to pay you back for lost or damaged items. The most common things that cause FBA inventory to be lost or damaged are related to the following parts of the FBA process.
1. Lost and Damaged Inventory During the Shipment
Your inventory may go missing, and sometimes it’s hard to figure out why. For example, the inbound courier who takes your package from your location to one of Amazon’s fulfillment centers could accidentally damage or lose your items. In other cases, the team at the warehouse only checks in half of the items you sent.
Amazon will sometimes destroy your items without your permission or knowledge. Usually, they do this when they think the item is badly broken and can’t be sold, but if you claim and Amazon reimbursement case, they will pay you back.
2. Customers Returns
Amazon does everything it can to keep its customers safe and always looks for ways to improve the customer experience.
This customer obsession sometimes hurts FBA sellers in many different ways. Usually, the returned orders are unfulfillable and you can’t put them on the shelf again.
In other situations, the customer may only return an empty box. But customers aren’t always to blame when things go wrong with returns. Sometimes, Amazon employees forget to add the item you returned to your stock.

3. Incorrect FBA Fees
To make sure you’re not overpaying for anything, you should keep an eye on two main things: the product category and the product size. Amazon will charge you a referral fee that varies by product category. But you can get your money back if Amazon puts your items in the wrong category and charges you the wrong referral fees.
Incorrectly measured items are another reason why fees are too high. When Amazon gets your goods, they use Cubiscan to figure out how big and heavy they are. Even though this machine is mostly accurate, a package that bulges oddly could cause it to make a mistake that puts your item in a bigger size category. If Amazon thinks a normal-sized item is too big, it can affect your FBA fees.
