See every featureCOD Guard checks phone, email, and delivery-address details on cash-on-delivery orders as Shopify receives them. It assigns an explainable risk level and tags orders that may need review before shipping. Record delivery outcomes and see recent return history matched by phone within your store only. Successful deliveries can rehabilitate warnings, and history expires after 180 days.
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.
- Automatic risk score on every cash-on-delivery order, before you fulfill it.
- Vietnamese phone, email, and address checks in one low, medium, or high verdict.
