Bubble Wrap Chargeback

A bubble wrap chargeback occurs when products are not properly wrapped in bubble wrap, particularly items that are fragile, sharp, or have loose parts that cannot be secured with tape alone. If additional bubble wrap is required at a fulfillment center, a charge of EUR 0.78 per unit is levied.

Proper packaging is crucial to avoid such fees. It prevents the need for extra handling, which increases processing time and costs. Improved packaging also enhances the customer experience by reducing the risk of damage during shipping.

Vendors can dispute a chargeback if they believe it was applied in error, by providing evidence that the products were correctly packaged and labeled.
