Flipkart Settlement Reconciliation Software
Flipkart calculates seller payouts by subtracting category commission fees, fulfillment fixed fees, collection fees (prepaid vs COD), forward/reverse shipping charges, and 18% GST on all marketplace services. Without automated reconciliation, subtle errors in weight slab categorization, commission tier changes, or SPF claim credits remain unnoticed.
Understanding Flipkart's 5 Core Fee Components
Flipkart breaks down deductions across five primary service categories before releasing settlement funds to your bank account.
1. Category Commission
Percentage fee charged on item value based on your category. Ensure your listings are not assigned to higher-percentage sub-categories.
2. Fixed Fee
A slab-based fixed charge per unit determined by selling price slabs and fulfillment method (FBF vs. Non-FBF seller tier).
3. Collection Fee
Payment processing charge varying between prepaid payment modes (UPI, cards) and Cash on Delivery (COD) collection.
4. Shipping Fee
Logistics charges calculated on volumetric vs. dead weight slabs across Local, Zonal, and National shipping destinations.
5. GST on Fees
A mandatory 18% GST is added to all marketplace deductions (Commission, Fixed, Collection, Shipping) before net settlement.
SPF Claims
Seller Protection Fund reimbursements for customer returns that were damaged in transit or missing items during return logistics.
Tracking Flipkart SPF (Seller Protection Fund) & Return Losses
Customer returns on Flipkart trigger immediate settlement debits and reverse shipping charges. If an item is received damaged, empty, or swapped, filing an SPF claim is required to recover the loss.
Profimode cross-checks every approved SPF claim against bank credits to ensure that agreed compensation is actually paid out and not lost in delayed settlement cycles.
