Which one is for you

Pick Refund Retriever if

  • Fits if you ship a lot with UPS or FedEx and don't have time to audit invoices
  • Works for shippers who'd rather pay only when money comes back

Look elsewhere if

  • Pricey if you recover a lot: it keeps 50% under $250,000 a year in shipping, 45% to $500,000 and 40% to $1,000,000
  • Not for you if you use other carriers, as the listing covers UPS and FedEx
  • Skip it if you want FBA help, since the Amazon Seller Refunds page returns a 404
  • Watch out: over $1,000,000 a year the rate is quoted by contacting the company

Pick sellerboard if

  • Fits if you want your profit after every Amazon fee and cost
  • Works for small sellers who also sell on Shopify, Walmart or eBay, from $15 a month

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you're still hunting for a product, as there's no product or niche research
  • Tight if you're sharing it with staff, since per-user access limits come only with Enterprise at $63
  • Tight if you rely on review requests, as Standard sends only 150 a month
  • Watch out: plans are capped by orders a month, from 3,000 on Standard, and accounts hold at most 30,000 products
  • Not for you if you want a desktop app, or a free plan after the 1-month trial

More comparisons

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
