In Amazon’s tightly controlled ecosystem, the smallest oversight can quietly drain thousands from your profits…
And the worst part? Many Vendor brands don’t even realise it’s happening until the deductions have already hit their statements.
Let’s take ASIN stickering as one example…
When a product arrives at an Amazon fulfilment centre without a valid, scannable barcode, it disrupts the automation Amazon relies on – and that triggers a whole cascade of problems:
- Items can get delayed or lost during intake
- Shortage claims start stacking up
- Your stock isn’t made available for sale quickly
- And you’re charged fees for non-compliance
While these chargebacks might look small on paper, the downstream impact is anything but – eroding margins, undermining operational efficiency and increasing friction in your Amazon relationship.
These are quiet leaks that add up fast – and there are lots of points of failure, not just stickering.
We see brands who have been repeatedly hit by chargebacks and deductions covering everything from fulfilment errors to non-compliant barcodes.
The cost of doing business? No.
Far too often, brands dismiss this revenue loss as just part and parcel of selling on Amazon – but there’s no reason to write these charges off.
In fact, we built a whole service – our Chargeback & Cash Recovery Service – for precisely this reason; to stop your profits from slipping through the cracks.
How does it work?
First, our experts audit your Amazon account in forensic detail to uncover:
- Deductions you can reclaim
- Operational patterns that are driving penalties; and
- Hidden holes in your processes
Then, we work to recover your lost revenue and help you prevent future deductions – protecting your margins and giving you more capital to reinvest in growth.
“We had no idea how much revenue we were losing in chargebacks until Venture Forge stepped in. Their expertise in claim recovery helped us reclaim lost funds and optimise our processes to prevent future losses.”
The Bottom Line
Operational oversights don’t just hurt efficiency – they hit your bottom line directly.
And if you’re not regularly reviewing your chargebacks and deductions? You could be leaving serious money on the table.
