Costco deduction recovery for CPG brands.
We investigate questionable deductions, build the supporting evidence and manage the recovery process so your finance team does not have to become a full-time dispute department.
Find the deduction
Identify the retailer or distributor code, amount, invoice and transaction reference.
Test the reason
Compare the deduction against your PO, shipment, promotion, agreement and other records.
Build the case
Assemble the evidence needed for the current retailer or distributor dispute process.
Routine claims should not become another approval queue.
CertaRelay recommends defining recovery rules upfront: which deduction types, retailers and dollar thresholds can move forward when the evidence is strong, and which exceptions should be escalated.
Agreed criteria
Decide the rules once, rather than debating the same issue on every deduction.
Exception based escalation
Customer input is reserved for unusual, high-value or ambiguous claims.
Clear reporting
See what was identified, what was submitted, what was recovered and what was closed without pursuit.
Find the deductions worth recovering.
Start with a historical deduction or remittance export. CertaRelay investigates the data, builds the evidence, and manages recovery.
