Flat-rate pre-shipment inspections, FBA compliance checks, and supplier quality programs built for the speed, scale, and margin pressure of online retail. Custom checklists per SKU, 100+ photo reports, and coverage across 45+ countries.
Online sellers operate with thinner margins, faster timelines, and less room for error than traditional retail. A single quality failure can cascade into lost revenue, damaged ratings, and marketplace penalties.
Product defects drive returns, erode margins, and damage seller ratings. A single defective batch can trigger a wave of negative reviews that takes months to recover from.
Online shoppers rely on reviews more than any other signal. Quality issues that reach customers translate directly into 1-star reviews, lower search rankings, and lost sales.
Defective products lead to chargebacks that cost more than the product itself — processing fees, penalty rates, and account standing risk compound with every dispute.
Amazon, Walmart, and other marketplaces enforce strict quality standards. Exceeding defect or chargeback thresholds can result in listing suppression, account suspension, or permanent bans.
Scaling from 5 to 50 suppliers across multiple countries makes quality consistency nearly impossible without systematic inspection programs and standardized checklists.
Tetra Inspection is purpose-built for brands that sell online. Every feature — from custom checklists to flat-rate pricing — is designed to give ecommerce sellers the quality control they need without the complexity and unpredictable costs of traditional QC firms.
We build product-specific inspection checklists that cover your exact specifications — dimensions, materials, functionality, labeling, and packaging requirements. No generic templates.
Track defect rates, corrective action response times, and inspection pass rates across every supplier. Identify which factories are improving and which need attention or replacement.
Spot recurring defect patterns before they become systemic problems. Our reporting identifies root causes across production runs so you can prevent issues, not just catch them.
Every inspection is priced at a flat rate per man-day — no hidden fees, no travel surcharges, no surprise invoices. Budget your QC costs with complete confidence.
Ecommerce moves fast. Our network of local inspectors across 45+ countries means we can schedule most inspections within 24 to 48 hours — keeping your launch timelines on track.
Every report includes detailed photographic evidence — product close-ups, defect documentation, packaging verification. Use them to negotiate rework, discounts, or dispute chargebacks.
Amazon FBA sellers face unique quality requirements that go beyond standard product inspection. FNSKU labeling, suffocation warnings, poly bag thickness, carton dimensions, and prep requirements must all be verified before shipment — or your inventory gets rejected at the fulfillment center.
Tetra's FBA-specific inspection checklists cover every Amazon requirement. Our inspectors verify functional performance, labeling compliance, packaging specs, and prep readiness — catching the issues that cause receiving delays, chargebacks, and listing suppression.
An Amazon FBA electronics seller was facing a 4.2% chargeback rate — well above Amazon's 1% threshold — and risked account suspension. Tetra deployed FBA-specific pre-shipment inspections with functional testing, labeling compliance, and 100+ photo evidence reports.
