WooCommerce Smart COD PRO

WooCommerce Smart COD PRO is the most complete Cash on Delivery management plugin for WooCommerce. It gives you full control over when the COD payment method is shown, how much extra you charge for it, and how you protect your store from fake or unpaid COD orders. Whether you run a single store or a multivendor marketplace, Smart COD PRO lets you turn Cash on Delivery from a risky option into a profitable, rule-based payment method.

Cash on Delivery is still the number one payment choice in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe and Latin America. But COD also brings high return-to-origin (RTO) rates, prank orders and extra courier charges. Smart COD PRO solves this with unlimited fee rulesets, advance partial payments, customer-level blocking, pincode/zipcode restrictions, and bulk CSV uploads, all configured from a simple WooCommerce settings screen with no coding required.

Download WooCommerce Smart COD PRO 1.7.7 and start charging smart COD fees, blocking risky buyers, and collecting advance payments today. The plugin is trusted by 15,000+ active stores with a 5-star rating and is fully compatible with the latest WooCommerce, WordPress, HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage), Dokan and WCFM.

Key Features of WooCommerce Smart COD PRO 1.7.7

• Risk-Free COD (Advance Payment) – Collect a fixed amount or a percentage of the order total online before confirming a COD order. The remaining balance is paid on delivery. This alone can cut fake orders and RTO dramatically.
• Unlimited COD Fee Rulesets – Create as many fee rules as you need. Charge a fixed fee, a percentage of the cart, or both, and combine conditions such as country, state, shipping zone, shipping method, cart total, product, category, user role, and more.
• Advanced COD Restrictions – Enable or disable COD by cart amount range, product, category, tag, shipping class, shipping zone, shipping method, coupon usage, backorder items, stock status, user role, and registered customers only.
• Block Customers by Email, Phone or Zipcode – Stop repeat offenders by blacklisting specific emails, phone numbers and postal codes from using Cash on Delivery.
• CSV Bulk Upload – Import thousands of zip codes, phone numbers, or emails in one go to allow or block COD, ideal for stores with large serviceable pincode lists.
• Fee on Order-Pay Page – COD fees are correctly applied even when a customer pays from the order-pay page after a failed online payment attempt.
• Multivendor Marketplace Support – Native integration with Dokan and WCFM so vendors and admins can manage COD rules on marketplace stores.

How WooCommerce Smart COD PRO Works

1. Enable COD and set global defaults – Turn on Cash on Delivery and define a default fee (fixed, percentage or none) and whether it is taxable.
2. Create fee rulesets – Add one or more rulesets. Each ruleset has a fee amount plus conditions such as cart total between X and Y, specific shipping zones, categories, or user roles. The first matching ruleset is applied at checkout.
3. Set restrictions – Define where COD should be hidden: minimum/maximum cart amounts, excluded products or categories, excluded zipcodes, phone numbers, emails, backordered items, coupon use, or guest customers.
4. Upload bulk data – Import your serviceable or non-serviceable pincodes and blocked customer lists via CSV instead of entering them one by one.
5. Configure Risk-Free COD – Choose a fixed advance amount or a percentage. At checkout, the customer pays the advance via any online gateway and the order is marked COD for the remaining balance.
6. Customer checks out – When a shopper reaches checkout, the plugin evaluates their cart, address and account in real time. COD is shown or hidden, the correct fee is added as a line item, and any unavailability message is displayed.
7. Order is placed – The COD fee and any advance payment are recorded on the order, visible in the admin order screen, emails and invoices. Marketplace vendors see the same data in Dokan or WCFM dashboards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this plugin work with the latest WooCommerce and WordPress versions?
Yes. Version 1.7.7 is tested with the current WooCommerce release, supports HPOS, and works with the WooCommerce block checkout as well as the classic shortcode checkout.

Can I charge a COD fee only above or below a certain cart amount?
Yes. Each ruleset can have a minimum and maximum cart total, so you can charge a fee only on small orders, waive it above a threshold, or set tiered fees.

Can I disable COD for specific pincodes or cities?
Yes. You can allow or block Cash on Delivery for specific zipcodes, states or countries, and upload thousands of pincodes at once using the CSV import.

How does Risk-Free COD (advance payment) work?
You set a fixed amount or a percentage. The customer pays that portion online during checkout through any of your active payment gateways, and the remaining balance is collected in cash on delivery. This greatly reduces fake orders and returns.

Will the COD fee show on the cart page or only at checkout?
You decide. The fee visibility option lets you show it on the cart page, only at checkout, or both.

Does it work with Dokan and WCFM multivendor marketplaces?
Yes. Smart COD PRO is built to work with both Dokan and WCFM so marketplace stores can apply COD fees and restrictions correctly.

Is the COD fee taxable?
That is up to you. You can mark the fee as taxable and select the tax class to apply.

Can I block repeat customers who refuse COD deliveries?
Yes. Add their email address or phone number to the blocklist, or upload a list via CSV, and COD will no longer be offered to them.

Does the plugin add fees when a customer retries payment from the order-pay page?
Yes. Unlike many COD plugins, Smart COD PRO applies the correct fee on the order-pay page too, so you never lose revenue after a failed card payment.

Will it slow down my checkout?
No. The plugin is lightweight and only runs its rule checks during cart and checkout calculations.

Is this plugin compatible with currency switchers?
Yes. It integrates with Currency Switcher Pro and recalculates COD fees in the selected currency.

Can I translate the plugin into my language?
Yes. Smart COD PRO is translation ready and works with WPML, Polylang, and Loco Translate.

What happens to my settings if I update to version 1.7.7?
All your existing rulesets, restrictions, and blocklists are preserved. Always keep a backup before updating, as with any plugin.
