With Amazon being a dominant player in the e-commerce space, it’s no surprise that both vendors and customers use the platform regularly. With such a large volume of transactions happening on the site, it’s not uncommon for vendors to receive chargeback notifications.
To handle chargeback disputes, Amazon has a set procedure in place. However, vendors often view chargebacks as a significant issue, and may challenge any chargeback claims made. That’s why it’s crucial to utilize proven resources and work with AML CBB experts to bolster your claim, increasing your chances of a successful Amazon chargeback resolution.
An Amazon chargeback is a process where a customer disputes a charge made on their credit card or Amazon account and requests a refund. This is similar to a credit card chargeback or other forms of fund recovery.
The most common reasons for a chargeback on Amazon include: item not received, item received damaged, item received not as described, and unauthorized charges on Amazon account.
When a customer raises a chargeback, they must provide evidence to support their claim. Amazon will review both the customer and the vendor’s side of the story and make a decision on whether the vendor must refund the customer. The vendor has 11 days to respond to the chargeback email.
It’s important to have strong evidence to support your case in order to increase the chances of a successful outcome in an Amazon chargeback dispute.
A customer files a complaint and provides supporting documentation
The vendor receives a chargeback email from Amazon
The vendor has 11 days to respond to the complaint
Amazon makes a decision on whether to allow the vendor to keep the money or to issue a chargeback to the customer
This process is designed to be efficient, with the vendor only having 11 days to respond, which can be both an advantage and a disadvantage for both parties. For Amazon, the goal is to maintain customer and vendor satisfaction while preventing chargeback fraud and addressing valid complaints. It is important to note that Amazon strives to remain impartial and to balance the interests of both customers and vendors.

Chargebacks on Amazon can be helpful for those who have fallen victim to financial scams or fraud, but they can be a headache for vendors. They worry about chargeback fraud, where customers attempt to get items for free by making a chargeback claim without returning the item.
As the issue of chargeback fraud continues to grow, it’s likely that vendors will contest your chargeback claim. As Amazon chargebacks can significantly impact a vendor’s profits, they will likely resist avoiding returning money to customers and paying chargeback fees.
