Background
Who is Zion4Commerce?
A full-service Amazon agency managing multiple brand accounts. They partnered with KwickMetrics to offer FBA reimbursement recovery as a value-added service — converting an overlooked problem into a new revenue stream for both the agency and their clients.
Agency Type

Managing multiple brand accounts
Partnership Model
Revenue share
Performance-only — no fixed cost or retainer
Time to First Recovery
Within first billing month
One brand recovered funds in April itself
Operational Overhead
Zero additional headcount
KwickMetrics handles all claim detection and filing
Our clients were leaving money on the table every month and didn't even know it. KwickMetrics surfaced the exact number upfront — that made it an easy conversation. Within three months we'd recovered over $24,000 across three accounts with zero extra work on our end.

What the Agency Did
Zion4Commerce's role in making this work
The technology handles the claims — but the agency brought the trust, the conversations, and the commercial structure. Here's how they did it.
1
Connected brand accounts — KwickMetrics surfaced the unclaimed amount instantly
Zion4Commerce connected their client brand accounts to KwickMetrics. The platform automatically audited each account and showed the total unclaimed reimbursement amount sitting with Amazon. Armed with this data, Zion4Commerce approached each brand owner with a concrete number — not a vague pitch — making the conversation direct and credible.
2
Educated brand owners on unclaimed money
They walked each brand owner through what FBA reimbursements are, why Amazon doesn't automatically return this money, and what the realistic recovery potential looked like for their specific account.
3
Agreed on a commission structure with each brand
Commission percentages were discussed and agreed upon individually with each brand — reflecting their account size, category, and recovery complexity. No fixed rate; each arrangement was negotiated separately.
4
Introduced brand POCs to KwickMetrics — we took it from there
Once the brand was aligned, Zion4Commerce made a direct introduction to the KwickMetrics team. KwickMetrics handled the complete onboarding: agreement signing, collecting business details, and running a ToS-compliant claim process on the brand's behalf. Once the brand pays KwickMetrics, the agency's revenue share is transferred automatically — no invoicing, no chasing, no collection effort on Zion4Commerce's end.

+280%
Month-over-month portfolio growth (May → June)
April surfaces initial losses. May begins clearing the recent backlog (+4,569% MoM). June hits the multi-year historical backlog — where the real volume sits. Portfolio claimed jumped from $5,002 in May to $19,009 in June. This compounding pattern is typical, not exceptional.
Process
How Zion4Commerce runs this without extra headcount
Once brands are onboarded, the operation runs inside KwickMetrics. Agencies connect client accounts once; the platform handles all claim identification and filing automatically.
1
Connect client marketplace
One-time SP-API authorization per brand. No data entry required.
2
Automated claim detection
KwickMetrics scans for lost, damaged, and unreimbursed FBA inventory across the full account history.
3
Claims filed on your behalf
KwickMetrics submits ToS-compliant cases to Amazon. Agency tracks status in real time from the dashboard.
4
Agency share paid automatically
Once the brand pays KwickMetrics, your revenue share is transferred. No invoicing or collection effort on your end.
For Agencies Evaluating This
What this looks like at 10 clients
Extrapolated from Zion4Commerce's early results. Actual recovery varies by client GMV, FBA volume, and claim history. These figures are directional, not guaranteed.
$760K+
Estimated annual client recovery (10 accounts at similar GMV)
$184K+
Estimated annual agency revenue share at 10-client scale
Zero
Fixed cost or retainer to the agency. Performance-only model.
⚠️ Extrapolation assumes annualised run-rate based on Zion4Commerce's June 2026 monthly figures ($19,009/month for 3 brands × 12 months / 3 × 10 clients ≈ $760K). Agency earnings extrapolated from June commission of $4,595 per month across 3 brands. Real-world recovery may be higher in months 2–4 as historical backlog clears, then taper. KwickMetrics recommends starting with your highest-GMV accounts for fastest initial recovery.
Fit Check
Is this right for your agency?
This model works best for agencies that already have established client relationships. You don't need a dedicated ops team — you just need the right accounts.
You manage 3 or more active FBA brand accounts
Your clients ship inventory to Amazon FBA regularly
Clients have 12+ months of FBA history (more backlog = more recovery)
You want to add a new revenue line without adding headcount
Clients have monthly FBA shipment values above $5,000
You have trusted relationships where clients act on your recommendations
💡 Tip: The fastest wins come from your highest-GMV clients with the longest FBA histories. Start there — the unclaimed amount surfaced in the first audit is usually enough to close the conversation instantly.
