How it sells itself

Your buyers pay with Shopify's own Cash-on-Delivery method at the native checkout — COD Flex never places orders and never touches checkout. When a COD order arrives it scores how likely it is to be refused, from the delivery region, the order value and the buyer's past refusals, and tags the risky ones so you call-confirm or hold them before paying to ship.

CODFlow adds a branded cash on delivery (COD) order form to product pages. Before an order is created, it checks the phone number against courier delivery and cancellation history from Steadfast, Pathao, Paperfly, and Carrybee, then tags it low, medium, or high risk to catch fake orders early. Set delivery charges by area or weight. Add quantity discounts, bundles, and gift-with-purchase offers on COD orders.

Key points
  • Refusal-risk score and a review or hold tag on every native COD order
  • Learns from refused parcels via courier tracking — repeat refusers score higher
  • Multi-courier AWB labels + delivery tracking (Sameday, DPD, FAN, Cargus)
  • Google Sheets order export and Meta and TikTok pixel tracking
  • Branded cash on delivery form builder with custom fields and styling
  • Courier fraud checks using real delivery and cancellation history
  • Delivery fee rules by area or weight, set by the merchant
