Marketplace reimbursements have to be found, filed and chased inside a claim window. Most of that work never happens, so most of the money never comes back.
By submitting you agree to be contacted about your audit.
Four places money leaves a fulfilment operation, and what each one is worth. Your channel mix, carrier mix and ticket volume decide where most of yours sits.
Inventory losses, returns and marketplace errors that go unclaimed or unrecovered.

No migration. Shipherd reads from your existing stack.
Shipherd estimates that 1–3% of marketplace revenue is lost to inventory, returns and errors, based on our own operating experience rather than an external study. One live account moved from 0.14% to 0.65% of marketplace revenue recovered in a single month, with two claim categories still to switch on.
Claim windows vary by case type and Amazon has shortened several of them in recent years. This is why manual recovery underperforms: by the time a discrepancy shows up in a monthly reconciliation, the window has often closed. Shipherd monitors continuously and files inside the window.
Yes. Shipherd requests read-only access through Amazon's official Selling Partner API. It cannot change listings, pricing or inventory, and access can be revoked from your Seller Central account at any time.
No. Shipherd reads from your existing stack rather than replacing it, including marketplaces, carriers, WMS and helpdesk. There is no migration and no implementation project.
The audit is free and there is no cost to start. Recovery is charged on a no-recovery-no-fee basis, so you pay a share of what is actually returned and nothing if no money comes back.
The audit takes a few days from first contact: we set up read-only access with you, then reconcile and report. Claims are filed immediately after your review, and reimbursement timing then depends on Amazon's own processing, typically a few weeks per claim.
Marketplace refunds where the item never came back are reimbursable. Finding them means reconciling three separate reports against each other.
For finance leadersNothing surfaces what marketplaces and carriers owe you. There is no report, no alert, no line in the P&L that says unclaimed.
