How it sells itself

Cash-on-delivery orders are easy to refuse, leaving merchants to cover return shipping on unsold goods. CODcheck reviews each COD order and gives it a risk score from the buyer's phone, email, order history, and refusal signals shared across the CODcheck merchant network.

Every fake COD order costs you money in lost shipping, inventory, and time. CODShield automatically scores Cash on Delivery orders before fulfillment detecting risky buyers, fake addresses, and suspicious patterns. Approve trusted orders instantly. Hold or cancel risky ones before they ship. Get realtime alerts on high-risk transactions.

Key points
  • Automatic fraud risk score for every cash-on-delivery order
  • Real-time dashboard with verification analytics
  • Shared merchant network that flags buyers who refuse deliveries
  • Block and allow lists for phone numbers you control
  • COD risk analysis: Analyze COD orders and flag potential risk indicators.
  • Order control : Approve, hold, or cancel flagged orders before shipping.
  • Risk alerts: Get notified when orders require your attention.
  • Insights dashboard: Track order risks and monitor patterns in one place.

How Shoplist compares apps

Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Oct 14, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
