If you've ever looked at an Amazon order and wondered why the amount that reached your account is so much smaller than the price the customer paid, this free Amazon order fee breakdown tool is for you. Upload your transaction report, pick any order, and see every line — what the buyer paid, each fee Amazon deducted, the GST collected, and the final amount settled to you. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
How to use this tool
- Upload your Date Range Transaction Report (CSV) for a recent completed month.
- Find your order — search by order ID or SKU, scroll the list, or paste a full order ID.
- Read the breakdown — the tool shows customer-paid, each Amazon fee, tax collected, and what you received.
How Amazon charges fees on each order
Amazon doesn't take one single "fee". Each order is reduced by several separate charges, and understanding them is the first step to protecting your margin:
- Referral fee: a percentage of the item price that Amazon charges for every sale, varying by category. This is the big one for most sellers.
- Closing fee: a small flat charge applied on certain categories and price bands.
- FBA fulfilment fee: if you use Fulfilment by Amazon, this covers picking, packing, and shipping the order to the customer. It depends on the item's size and weight.
- Other transaction fees: a catch-all line that, on many Amazon India reports, also carries the referral/selling fee and shipping-related charges. This tool reads the actual fee columns so nothing is missed, regardless of which column Amazon places a fee in.
- GST on fees: Amazon adds GST on top of its platform fees, which is folded into the fee figures you see.
What the customer actually pays
The "customer paid" figure is the all-in amount the buyer was charged: the product price, plus any shipping and gift-wrap charges, plus the GST collected on the sale. Amazon collects all of this, then deducts its fees and remits the GST and tax-at-source amounts on your behalf, before settling the remainder to your account.
A worked example
A ₹399 order: the customer pays ₹399 — that's ₹338 product price plus ₹61 GST.
Amazon deducts roughly ₹70 FBA fulfilment and ₹17 in other transaction fees, and accounts for the tax collected at source.
The result: around ₹311 settles to your account. The remaining gap is GST (remitted to the government) and Amazon's fees — not pure profit lost, but money that was never yours to keep.
What happens when an order is returned
When a customer returns an item, the original sale is reversed: the product sales amount comes back out, and Amazon refunds part of its fees too. In high-return categories this matters a lot — a return costs you the sale plus any non-refunded handling. If an order in your report was refunded, this tool stacks the refund line alongside the original order so you can see the full lifecycle in one place.
Frequently asked questions
Is my data safe? Do you store my report?
No. The tool runs entirely in your browser — your CSV is read locally on your device and nothing is uploaded to any server. Refresh or close the page and the data is gone.
Which report do I need to upload?
The Date Range Transaction Report (CSV) from Reports → Payments → Date Range Reports in Seller Central. Choose a recent completed month and the Transaction (CSV) type — not the Summary PDF, which tools can't read.
Where do I find an order ID?
Order IDs look like 402-1234567-1234567 and appear in your Seller Central orders, customer emails, and the report itself. You don't need to know it in advance — you can search or scroll the list of orders once your report is loaded.
Why is the amount I received less than the customer paid?
The customer's payment includes GST and is charged before Amazon's fees. Amazon collects the full amount, remits the GST and tax at source, deducts its referral, FBA, and other fees, and settles the remainder to you. This tool shows each of those steps.
Does this show the referral fee separately?
It shows every fee column from your report. On many Amazon India reports the referral fee is grouped into the "other transaction fees" line rather than a separate "selling fees" column — the tool reads the actual columns so the total is always correct, even when Amazon's labelling varies.
Can I see returned orders too?
Yes. If an order was refunded, the refund appears stacked with the original sale so you can see the full money flow — what came in, what went back out, and the net effect.
