Frequently Asked Questions

Is Cash on Delivery free to enable on Shopify?
Yes. Cash on Delivery is a built-in manual payment method in Shopify and can be enabled at no cost from your Payments settings. There are no extra fees from Shopify for using it.

Can I customize the name or instructions shown to customers for COD?
Yes. When setting up the Cash on Delivery method in Shopify, you can edit the payment method name and add custom instructions that appear to customers at checkout — for example, explaining how payment will be collected upon delivery.

Will COD orders affect my Shopify analytics or financial reports?
Yes. COD orders appear as Payment pending in your Shopify admin and are only counted as paid revenue once you mark them as paid. This means your financial reports will reflect actual collected revenue rather than pending orders, which is important to keep in mind when reviewing your store's performance.

Can I limit which customers see Cash on Delivery at checkout?
Shopify's native COD setting shows the option to all customers. To restrict Cash on Delivery by country, product, order value, or shipping method, you'll need an app like Releasit COD Fee & Partial Pay, which gives you full control over when and where COD appears.
