How it sells itself

Cash on delivery (COD) is a great enabler for the e-commerce industry. But, it also is one of the leading sources of operational loss due to cancellations and bogus orders. Hence, reducing COD failures is a top priority for e-commerce players. Using CODBot, you can ensure that your COD order verification happens before you ship them out. It also helps with fraud filters and fraud analysis.

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
  • Verify a Cash on Delivery (COD) order, by sending an OTP through SMS or WhatsApp
  • Cut down RTO (Return to Origin) drastically by eliminating fake/bogus COD orders
  • IVR COD verification if the OTP delivery fails via SMS or WhatsApp
  • NEW: Charge a fee for COD orders
  • 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
