Amazon Vendor Recovery Case Study: German DIY Brand Recovers €250,000

The Challenge

A German DIY brand operating across Amazon's European marketplaces faced a critical blind spot: their existing accounting infrastructure couldn't integrate effectively with Amazon's data architecture. This created an invisible gap in their balance sheet—missed reimbursements that existed but couldn't be identified, let alone recovered.

The platform's complexity, combined with internal systems incompatibility, meant the company had no visibility into the magnitude of Amazon's under-reimbursements. Financial leakage was occurring, but the scale of the problem remained unknown.

The Solution

RT7 engineered a bespoke integration between the client's accounting systems and Amazon's billing data, then conducted a comprehensive audit to quantify latent receivables. Our approach accommodated their unique operational constraints whilst maintaining forensic rigour in dispute evidence.

The Results

€250,000 recovered—representing previously invisible assets now converted to liquid capital.

Strategic Impact

RT7's intervention created a new asset class on the client's balance sheet: quantified, recoverable Amazon liabilities. By building technical infrastructure to bridge their systems gap, we transformed what appeared to be irrecoverable write-offs into material cash flow that could be actively managed and forecasted.
