Solve Chargebacks & Invalid Deductions at the Source

Automatically recover lost dollars and prevent future losses by identifying patterns, pinpointing root causes, and addressing the issues that drive revenue leakage across your supply chain.

The Problem

You’re Losing Revenue Without Knowing Why

Suppliers and brands lose 5–7% of their revenue to retailer chargebacks. These deductions and fines are often difficult to explain, validate, or dispute before dispute windows closes — leaving teams reacting after money is already gone.

Manual Processes Hide 
what Matters

Teams spend hours logging into retailer portals, pulling proof documents, and following retailer-specific dispute workflows. These repetitive tasks slow recovery and make it difficult to see patterns across deductions.

You Keep Seeing the Same Deductions

Even when money is recovered, the underlying cause is often unclear. Without visibility into what went wrong upstream, the same deductions continue to appear month after month.

Why This Problem Exists

Running a modern supply chain means coordinating retailer rules, timelines, platforms, and partners while managing carriers, warehouses, and internal teams. Without shared visibility, deduction issues are easy to miss and difficult to resolve.

Every Retailer Works Differently

Each retailer has its own portals, timelines, documentation rules, and dispute steps. Some dispute processes require dozens of clicks per claim, while others rely on email or third parties. There is no standard process. This variability makes it difficult to apply consistent logic or learning across disputes. 

Processes Are Disconnected

Most suppliers and brands are still tracking deductions in spreadsheets, emails, and disconnected portals. Proof documentation has to be gathered by hand, one dispute at a time. Disconnected tracking prevents teams from seeing trends across retailers and time. 

The Rules Change Constantly

Compliance requirements, penalties, and dispute rules change frequently without warning. Many suppliers and brands only find out after money has already been deducted. Without early visibility, teams only learn about changes after revenue is already lost. 

Visibility is Fragmented

Deductions are visible in financial systems, while the underlying causes live elsewhere across the supply chain. Without shared visibility across finance and operations, root causes remain unresolved and deductions persist.
