What is A-Z Claim?
The A-Z Claim/Guarantee ensures customers are protected when buying items from third-party sellers like Mopio Inc. It covers both on-time delivery and item condition. If a customer has an issue and can’t resolve it with the seller, they can file a claim with Amazon. Amazon will then review the case and decide if the customer is eligible for a refund.
What is CX agent's role on this?
To ensure that we do not have any A-Z claims in file. This will affect our ODR% rate. In other words, it will jeopardies the business on Amazon marketplace.
Respond to customer in a timely manner- within 24hrs of business timing.
In any case both agent & customer has agreed to a resolution, but an A-Z claim was filed, agents NEED to get customer to withdraw them. Otherwise, it will disrupt and delay the refund/replacement process. Do educate the customer when you seek their assistance on this. Some do not understand the process.
How to check if the A-Z claim is successfully withdrawn:
You may check them via Amazon Seller Central > Performance > A-Z Claims Guarantee

Process of handling A-Z claims
Every now and then, OM (Isabelle/Farihah/Iffah) will update the A-Z claim tab on Daily Summary.
1. Receiving the A-Z Claim
- Upon receiving an A-Z Claim, Farihah will immediately generate an aftersales ticket, followed by capturing and pasting a screenshot of the correct A-Z Claim row into Freshdesk. Farihah will apply the A-Z claim tagging to the ticket.
- Updates or resolutions will be recorded in the Daily Summary sheet as usual.
2. Agent Allocation & Customer Call
- A PIC, TL, or Trainer will allocate an available agent (based on ROTA) to contact the customer.
- The call must be made within 24 hours to attempt withdrawing the claim.
3. Updating the Sheet & Next Steps
- After the call, the agent will update the sheet with the outcome:
§ If answered & customer agrees to withdraw:
□ The issue will be escalated to the internal team for resolution.
§ If unanswered:
□ The agent will send the A-Z verdict reply to the customer.
□ The ticket will then be marked as resolved.
4. OM’s Role in Monitoring
- OM will monitor the status of A-Z claims.
- If the claim is withdrawn, the resolved ticket will be updated with the latest A-Z verdict: "Withdrawn" and the agent will continue assisting the customer.
- If the claim is granted, OM will decide whether to proceed with an appeal.
5. If A-Z Claim is Denied
- Agents will inform the customer within 24 hours, offering a proposed resolution to improve their experience.
- If the customer replies, the case will be escalated to the OPS team.
- If the customer does not reply, a pending follow-up email will be sent within 2 days, and the issue will then be resolved.
