Cash on delivery

Sell with cash on delivery, from order to delivered.

SymplysisAI's store, order form and profit calculator are all built around cash on delivery (COD): the order that isn't real revenue until it's confirmed, shipped and delivered.

How it works

  1. 1

    Take the order

    A buyer submits your one-step cash-on-delivery order form: name, phone and city, no payment upfront.

  2. 2

    Confirm and ship

    Move the order from new to confirmed, then to shipped, tracking it against your delivery company.

  3. 3

    Know your real numbers

    Use the free profit calculator to see net profit per 100 orders after returns and ad cost.

  4. 4

    Recover what's lost

    Abandoned-order recovery and order protection cut down on drop-off and spam orders.

Why cash on delivery needs its own tools

In a cash-on-delivery sale, the buyer risks nothing upfront, which is why it converts more visitors, but the seller carries the risk of a returned parcel that already cost money to ship. The gap between orders placed and orders actually paid for is where most sellers lose their margin without noticing.

An order form and order flow built for it

Every SymplysisAI store product page carries a one-step cash-on-delivery order form. Orders then move through statuses, new, confirmed, shipped, delivered, returned and cancelled, so you can see which ones still need a confirmation call before they ship.

  • Order statuses: new, confirmed, shipped, delivered, returned, cancelled
  • Abandoned-order recovery
  • Custom order forms
  • Order protection: a spam blocker and a cap on orders per IP

Know your real profit before you spend on ads

The free profit calculator at /calculator takes your selling price, product cost, shipping and ad cost, along with your confirmation rate, delivery rate and return rate, and returns your net profit per 100 orders, your ROAS and your break-even ROAS. Returned parcels pay shipping both ways, and the calculator accounts for that instead of hiding it.

The rest of the campaign, built the same way

A landing page, ad copy, a poster and a voiceover generated from the same product link all point back at the same order form, so testing a new product doesn't mean rebuilding the confirmation and delivery process each time.

Who this is for

Store owners selling in markets where prepaid checkout is rare, dropshippers testing new products, and agencies running COD campaigns for several sellers all work inside the same order flow and the same numbers.

Questions and answers

What is a cash-on-delivery order form?

A one-step form on the product page that asks for the buyer's name, phone and address, with no payment upfront. It's built into every SymplysisAI store, on every plan, free or paid.

How do I know if I'm actually profitable?

Use the free profit calculator at /calculator. Enter your price, cost, shipping and ad spend along with your confirmation, delivery and return rates, and it shows net profit per 100 orders, your ROAS and your break-even ROAS.

Why do returned parcels matter so much?

A returned parcel pays shipping both ways: once out, once back, with no revenue in between. The calculator counts that cost explicitly instead of only looking at the sale price.

Does the store track order confirmation?

Yes. Orders move through new, confirmed, shipped, delivered, returned and cancelled, so you can see at a glance which new orders still need a confirmation call before they ship out to the buyer.

Can I export orders to Google Sheets?

Yes. New orders can export to Google Sheets, which is useful if your confirmation team already works from a spreadsheet instead of the dashboard directly, and it updates as new orders come in.

Is the calculator free?

Yes. The profit calculator at /calculator is free and doesn't require an account, a card or a login, so you can check your numbers before you commit to a plan.
