Understanding Low-Inventory-Level Fees
As of April 1st, 2024, Amazon is charging its Low Inventory FBA fee. This fee is a per-unit fulfillment fee based on your 90 days of supply at FBA and your 30 days of supply at FBA. If both your 90 and 30 days of supply fall below the 28-day threshold, Amazon will bill you for each item sold and shipped while this inventory is below 28 days of supply. You can get products out of this fee threshold by sending in plenty of inventory to FBA.
This first video explains how SoStocked's new Low Inventory Fees dashboard works, how to read it and what to do when you see products on that report. The second video is a more in-depth webinar training on Amazon fees. In that video, Chelsea teaches about Amazon's low inventory fees and exactly how they are calculated, and how much Amazon will charge. Make sure to watch both videos so that you fully understand them.
The most important thing you can do to PREVENT these fees from occurring in the future is to always make sure you have at least 35 days of buffer stock at FBA. You can adjust your forecast settings in SoStocked to help you. And if you haven't watched the Buffer Stock tutorial, please do so now.
