Popular Features

1. Advanced Cash on Delivery Rules

Create unlimited Cash on Delivery rules to control when the COD payment method is available. Configure different rules for different business requirements without writing custom code. The flexible rule engine allows precise control over COD availability across your WooCommerce store.

2. Offer Deposits for Cash on Delivery

Allow customers to pay a deposit amount during checkout while paying the remaining balance through Cash on Delivery upon delivery. Configure fixed or percentage-based deposits based on your business requirements. This helps reduce order cancellations, improves customer commitment, and minimizes the financial risk associated with COD orders.

3. Additional Cash on Delivery Fees

Apply fixed or percentage-based COD charges to recover handling and payment collection costs. Configure different fee structures based on your business requirements. The additional charges are calculated automatically during checkout.

4. Product & Category-Based Restrictions

Enable or disable Cash on Delivery based on specific products, product categories, or selected product groups. Offer COD only for eligible products while restricting high-risk or unsuitable items. This helps reduce operational risks and improve order management.

5. Location-Based COD Availability

Control Cash on Delivery availability using customer countries, states, cities, ZIP/Postal codes, and other supported location criteria. Create region-specific COD rules to match your delivery network. This ensures COD is only offered where your business can fulfill orders efficiently.

6. Shipping Method Restrictions

Display the Cash on Delivery payment method only when customers choose specific shipping methods. Configure different COD availability for local delivery, flat rate, free shipping, or custom shipping methods. This provides greater flexibility for managing shipping and payment combinations.

7. Customer & User Role Restrictions

Restrict Cash on Delivery based on individual customers, user roles, or selected customer groups. Offer COD only to trusted customers or wholesale users while limiting access for others. This helps minimize fraudulent or high-risk orders.

8. Cart & Order Value Conditions

Configure COD availability using minimum and maximum cart totals, order values, and other purchase conditions. Automatically enable or disable COD based on the customer’s cart value. This allows merchants to encourage prepaid orders for high-value purchases.

9. Priority-Based Rule Processing

Assign priorities to Cash on Delivery rules when multiple rules match the same order. The plugin automatically evaluates rules based on the configured priority, ensuring the correct COD configuration is applied every time.

10. Automatic Checkout Validation

Automatically validate all configured Cash on Delivery rules during checkout. Customers only see the COD payment method when their order satisfies the configured eligibility conditions. This eliminates manual verification and ensures consistent rule enforcement.
