Do not apply one fee rate
The Yahoo Japan Shopping result varies by category, market, campaign and service. Use the actual deduction line and divide it by the matching sales base.
This produces an effective period fee that can be compared with plan and prior periods.
Separate deductions by cause
Account for fulfillment: orders are fulfilled from seller warehouses through selected Japanese carriers. It changes logistics, storage and return-related lines.
- selling fee
- handling, delivery and reverse logistics
- storage, receiving and optional services
- penalties, reimbursements and adjustments
Compare like-for-like conditions
The Yahoo Japan Shopping focus includes storefronts, search placement, PayPay campaigns and local order profit. Compare SKUs within the same category, market and fulfillment model.
A higher deduction share may come from price, returns, dimensions or paid-service usage rather than a rate change.
