    • Update product detail page: Correct images, titles, bullet points, sizing
    • Improve packaging or handling instructions
    • Use the Fit Insights Tool if sizing or fit is a frequent issue

Monitor NCX Metrics

    • Track:
      • NCX Rate (overall problem rate)
      • NCX Return Rate (returns due to listing/product issues)
      • NCX Review Rate (negative reviews due to product/listing issues)

Request Support if Needed

    • Open a case if you need clarification or dispute a flagged issue

NCX Review Rate

  • This is the rate at which customers leave negative feedback related to a specific ASIN.
  • Formula:

    NCX Review Rate = (Negative Customer Experience Reviews / Total Orders) × 100

  • A high % means more customers are reporting issues through product reviews.

NCX Return Rate

  • This shows the rate of returns triggered by a poor experience.
  • Formula:

    NCX Return Rate = (NCX Returns / Total Orders) × 100

  • A higher rate may indicate problems like item not as described, poor quality, etc.

📌 Goal: Keep both rates as low as possible to avoid ASIN suppression or account health issues. Amazon flags NCX metrics that exceed category benchmarks.
