SECURE YOUR WOOCOMMERCE STORE AGAINST  THE COMMON CASH ON DELIVERY ISSUES WITH OUR COD AUTHENTICATION TOOL

Partial COD for WooCommerce plugin allows you to charge users a partial amount on cash-on-delivery orders for building authentic order confirmation. It ensures genuine COD order placements and adds only real customers to the WooCommerce store. The admin can set fixed or percentage Partial Payment Types and also obtain complete details about all COD Orders.

Why Should You Use Partial COD for WooCommerce?

Cash on delivery is one of the most preferred payment methods for online shoppers, but it comes with some serious risks. First, the average payment cycle of COD orders can range from 2 to 5 weeks or more. During that whole period, you have to keep investing from your end to sustain your business. Second, the losses sustained during the COD order fulfillment are huge due to fraud, fake orders, and thefts.

This happens because the cash-on-delivery is by design an exploitable payment method. There is a clear lack of strong order authentication methods for COD orders. And even if the order is genuine, there is still a financial burden to carry in case the order is canceled or returned by the customer. If these issues are left unchecked, they can slow down your business and destroy your brand’s reputation.
