What is the Seller-fault Cancellation Rate
(SFCR)?The Seller-fault Cancellation Rate is the percentage of all orders (over a period of 7 calendar days) that are cancelled by the seller or due to the fault of the seller.
- The SFCR includes all:
- Seller-initiated cancellations due to the seller's fault (e.g. no stock, wrong pricing)
- Auto-cancellations due to the seller's failure to prepare/hand over the parcel to logistics providers within the platform's auto-cancellation Service Level Agreement (SLA).
- 100 orders were placed
- 20 orders were cancelled due to the seller's fault
- 5 orders were automatically cancelled
- The seller's SFCR is 25%.
