How it sells itself

Cash on delivery only works if the customer actually wants the parcel. CodWatchdog asks them on WhatsApp before you ship, and tags the order with their answer, so your team can see which parcels are safe to dispatch. It also watches its own delivery path.

Every refused COD order is an RTO, and it costs you twice — courier there, courier back. OrderPing messages your customer on WhatsApp the moment a cash on delivery order arrives, with one-tap Confirm and Cancel buttons. You ship only the confirmed ones. Built on Meta's official WhatsApp Business API, so your number stays safe. Messages send in English, Sinhala, Tamil, Hindi, Urdu or Arabic with a live preview.

Key points
  • Confirm COD orders before dispatch, from your own WhatsApp number
  • Orders tagged confirmed, cancelled, held or unreached automatically
  • Email alerts when your number, template or sending is restricted
  • Automatic reminders for customers who do not reply
  • One-tap Confirm and Cancel buttons on every COD order
  • Built on Meta's official WhatsApp Business API
  • Six languages: English, Sinhala, Tamil, Hindi, Urdu, Arabic
  • Automatic reminder at 24 hours, auto-expiry at 72 hours
