Why charge a COD fee?
A COD order costs more to fulfil than a prepaid one
Cash on delivery carries handling and return freight a prepaid order never does. A small additional fee covers some of that — and gives the customer a reason to pay online instead.
- Cover what COD costs
Per COD order
An additional fee on cash-on-delivery orders goes toward the logistics cost prepaid orders never carry.
- Encourage prepaid
Without hiding COD
A visible fee reduces COD adoption naturally, and cash on delivery stays on the checkout.
- Nothing hidden at checkout
Shown before paying
The customer sees the fee and the final total while they are placing the order.
- Already the industry norm

How COD Fees works
Set the fee. The checkout shows it.
Set a fixed or percentage-based COD fee, and it is applied the moment a customer chooses cash on delivery — as its own line, in front of them.
- 1
Configure your COD fee
Set a fixed amount or a percentage from the COD King dashboard — no theme edits, no code.
- 2
Customer selects COD
A buyer reaches your Shopify checkout and chooses cash on delivery over paying online.
- 3
The COD fee is applied
COD King adds your fee to the order summary as its own clearly labelled line.
- 4
The total updates
The customer sees the fee and the new total before they commit to anything.
- 5
Customer completes the order
They place the COD order at the total on screen — or switch to online payment, which carries no COD fee.
Result: Your fee → Applied when COD is chosen → A total the customer can see

Key features
Everything you need to charge for cash on delivery, and to show the customer exactly what they are paying.
Fixed fee amount
Charge a flat additional amount on every cash-on-delivery order.

Fees by price range
Set different fees for different order value bands rather than one fee for every cart.
Full checkout transparency
Complete visibility to customers while placing the order — the fee and the final total are both on screen.
Customisable fee labels
COD fee labels and checkout messaging are yours to word, and nothing else about your theme changes.
