Career totals. Per-client results vary.
It's not one big chargeback. It's two hundred small ones.
Walmart deducts $1,840 for an OTIF miss. Target takes $620 for a label spec. Amazon flags a chargeback for a missed ASN. Each one is too small to fight on its own — so nobody does. Multiply that across a year and it's a six-figure line item nobody owns.
Finance writes the deductions off as the cost of doing business. Ops is heads-down keeping the next PO on time. Disputing a $620 label-spec chargeback against Target's portal isn't anyone's job — so it doesn't get done. Multiply that by every retailer, every week.
We find it. We dispute it. We recover it.
Audit
We pull 12 months of remittance and chargeback data, and tell you exactly where the money went.
Recover
We file every disputable deduction with retailer-specific evidence — typically 200–600 disputes per quarter.
Fix
We trace recurring chargebacks back to the SKU, the lane, or the SOP and close the gap with your 3PL.
Manage
We become your retail compliance desk — weekly reporting, monthly review, no portal logins on your side.
You get one point of contact, one weekly report, and one number you can hold us to: dollars recovered.

The math against the alternatives.
Internal Hire
- $140K/yr fully loaded
- 6 months to ramp on retailer playbooks
- You still manage them
Software
- $2K/mo for a dashboard

ClearChain
- Flat monthly fee
- Live in two weeks
- Outcome owned end-to-end
Flat monthly. Money-back if we don't deliver.
Most chargeback firms take 20–30% of what they recover. We don't. You keep all of it.
ClearChain
Month-to-month. Cancel anytime. No long contract.
If we don't identify at least 3x your fee in recoverable revenue within the first 90 days, we refund every dollar.
We work with a small number of clients at a time.
Cheaper than the hire. Faster than the software. Most clients recover the monthly fee inside the first cycle.
I've spent the last decade inside retail compliance — running deduction recovery for brands selling into Walmart, Target, Amazon, and Kroger. Every brand I talked to was losing the same money for the same reasons, and nobody was owning it. ClearChain is the operator I wish those brands had been able to hire.
Let's see if we're a fit.
A 30-minute call. Not a pitch. We'll look at the retailers you sell and where the deductions are likely sitting. If it makes sense, you're on at $5,000/month — month-to-month. If we don't recover at least 3x your fee, you get your money back. We don't take a percentage of recoveries.
Typical response: same business day.
