Cash-on-Delivery (COD) remains a preferred payment method in many European countries, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). It provides your customers with the flexibility to pay for their purchases at the moment of delivery.
The COD option should be listed and activated into your online store’s checkout, allowing customers to select their preferred payment method during the purchase process. That boosts trust, improving conversion rates, and aligning with local shopping habits. One of the biggest benefits of COD is that it allows fast access to new markets with no need for expensive financial and resource investments.
Recognizing the importance of this payment option, we at euShipments.com have developed a highly optimized COD service. It helps eCommerce businesses simplify and speed up cash flow and reduce payment delays while offering customers greater flexibility in their transactions.

You could use our COD solution along with the following delivery methods:
The two popular payment methods upon delivery are Cash-on-delivery (COD) and Card-on-delivery (COD). Both allow the recipient to pay at the time of delivery, but the key difference lies in how the payment is made. With Cash-on-Delivery, the customer pays in physical cash. Card-on-Delivery enables payment via a card terminal, either debit or credit, offering a more modern and convenient alternative.
In all 17 countries we deliver with COD option to, we provide at least two home and two Out-of-home (OOH) delivery options. For some delivery options COD stands for Card-on-delivery entirely, others accept only physical cash and there is a third type – hybrid, which accepts both card and cash.
Enabling COD attracts a segment of customers who prefer this payment method for their online orders. This approach increases the percentage of your successful sales and contributes to the growth of your market share.
