A leading home decor & devine Product's Brand is an Amazon India FBA seller specialising in housewarming gifts, meditation accessories, and daily wear products. Like many growing FBA businesses, reimbursement tracking was a blind spot — claims were either filed manually with limited coverage, or not filed at all, leaving a significant and recoverable amount sitting unclaimed with Amazon.
Money was sitting unclaimed with Amazon
Before KwickMetrics, the brand's reimbursement process was either entirely manual or simply not happening. Eligible reimbursements could be missed because identifying them required cross-referencing FBA shipment reports, reconciliation reports, and Seller Central case logs.
The brand also faced Amazon's 18-month filing window. Without systematic tracking, valid claims could expire unnoticed, while pending cases required repeated follow-up inside Seller Central.
For this brand, the gap ultimately represented ₹1,19,997 in recoverable funds across eligible lost, damaged, and misattributed inventory claims.
What the brand needed to solve
The brand needed to recover eligible reimbursements without adding a manual operational burden to the team.
- Identify historical reimbursement opportunities across the FBA account.
- Recover eligible funds from lost, damaged, and misattributed inventory.
- File claims compliantly according to Amazon's reimbursement requirements.
- Monitor and follow up on cases through resolution.
- Prevent eligible claims from being lost as filing windows expire.
- Minimize internal effort required from the brand team.
A full-history reimbursement audit and recovery process
KwickMetrics conducted a full retrospective audit of the brand's FBA account history, surfaced eligible unclaimed amounts, and filed ToS-compliant cases directly with Amazon on the brand's behalf.
The process covered lost, damaged, and misattributed inventory and continued through case monitoring, follow-up, and recovery.
The core shift
Instead of relying on manual claim identification and follow-up, the brand had a systematic process for finding eligible reimbursements, filing cases, monitoring them, and recovering the approved amounts.

₹1,19,997 recovered in 9 months
KwickMetrics recovered ₹1,19,997 for the brand across 260 filed claims, with 259 claims successfully won.
Only 1 claim was not approved. The brand's reimbursement recovery also represented a 6% contribution to total profit, while the business maintained a 30% net profit margin.
Profit impact
For every ₹100 in revenue, the brand retained ₹30 as profit. Of that earned profit, 6% came directly from reimbursements recovered through KwickMetrics.
Why historical reimbursement recovery matters
The 18-month filing window
Amazon only allows reimbursement claims to be filed within 18 months of an eligible event.
Without a system actively tracking eligible events, valid claims can expire unnoticed. For this brand, the retrospective audit surfaced ₹1,19,997 in recoverable funds that might otherwise have remained unclaimed.
