Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureCOD Shield scores every Cash on Delivery order using 8 smart risk signals before you ship. We never send OTP messages to your customers. Real customers shop without interruption while fake orders get automatically blocked. We check pincode RTO history, customer order history, address completeness, order quantity, and timing patterns. Each flagged order shows merchants exactly why it was risky.
CodShield cuts cash-on-delivery RTO losses by confirming intent before dispatch. Each COD order gets a risk score, WhatsApp YES/NO from your number, and Approve/Cancel in one Admin queue. Set COD by order value: allow, confirm, collect deposits with proof in Files, or hide COD at checkout. Import courier return CSVs to flag repeat problem numbers. See RTO Saved on your dashboard.
