Who this is for

Finance and marketplace operations teams who need a clear answer to one question: do the commissions and deductions on our settlements match the published fee schedule and the orders we fulfilled? Typical clients run one to several storefronts on regional marketplaces and already export settlement CSVs or portal statements.

Result you receive

You leave with a written findings pack: fee schedule map, order-level variance table for the agreed sample, notes on promo clawbacks and return deductions, and a short executive summary suitable for an internal finance review or a constructive conversation with your channel manager.

What is included

  • Mapping of category commission rates, payment surcharges, and known promotional overrides for the review window
  • Reconciliation of a agreed sample of settlement lines against order exports
  • Identification of recurring variance patterns (not one-off typos alone)
  • Two clarification calls (kickoff and findings walkthrough)
  • Final PDF pack plus the working variance spreadsheet

What is excluded

  • Live access to your marketplace seller centre (you export files; we do not take over accounts)
  • Legal representation or formal dispute filing with a marketplace
  • Ongoing monthly monitoring unless you book a separate retainer
  • Tax filing or statutory financial statement audit

How the work runs

  1. Intake — marketplace list, date range, fee schedule screenshots or PDFs, settlement extracts, and order exports.
  2. Mapping — we build the expected commission logic for the categories you sold in that period.
  3. Sampling — we reconcile a statistically useful slice (and expand if patterns appear).
  4. Findings call — we walk finance through the pack and answer follow-up questions within the engagement window.

Preparation

Export settlements in the native marketplace format when possible. Note any mid-period category moves, flash-sale programmes, or warehouse transfers that changed which SKU sat under which fee. Incomplete order IDs slow sampling; we will flag gaps early rather than invent matches.

Constraints

We work from the files you provide. If a marketplace portal no longer surfaces historical statements for the dates you need, the sample shrinks accordingly and we state that limitation in the pack.

Pricing basis

Fixed project fee starting at MYR 4,800 for a single storefront and a 30-day window. Multi-store or multi-marketplace scopes are quoted after intake. See Fees for estimate factors.
