A specialist will review the C.E.R.A. report with you.
On your ready, we’ll begin initiating claims with Amazon.
No! We only need you to fill out a brief registration and provide admin access to your account to complete the audit. We then provide access to our data analysis software and take care of the rest at no obligation to work with chargeguard until you’re ready to move forward and recover your funds.
Our audit process takes 72 hours to get the information back to you. Once we begin recovery, the client timeline is typically 6-9 months for the full process to be completed.
The terms and conditions in our registration are required before we access your account, which provides the necessary protection for both parties. We have a long history of working with and gaining trust of large and small brands across many of the largest CPG organizations in the US. Admin access to the account is recommended but not required and can complete the audit with contributor access to operational performance, invoices, purchase orders, and payments for both our management and software accounts.
We have gained experience recovering fees across many categories which means we have visibility to the most effective methods to maximize recovery. Our tool can scrub data beyond the 12-months in VC so we have more visibility to available recovery. After all, you can’t recover what you can’t see!
Amazon’s lackadaisical manner of resolving refund claims often ties up seller’s cash flow in unreimbursed losses without any means of recourse. chargeguard solves this problem by continuously monitoring all due refunds so you know what you are owed. A dedicated Dispute Manager then goes to work to recover these reimbursements on your behalf. No muss. No fuss.
