In many regions, popular payment gateways like Stripe and PayPal may not be available. However, this does not mean that your business can't offer convenient payment options to your customers.

At OrderingPlus, we provide practical alternatives such as Cash on Delivery (COD) and Card on Delivery. These options ensure you can still conduct seamless transactions and maintain customer satisfaction.


Benefits of Cash on Delivery (COD)

  1. Increased Trust and Security: Customers feel more secure paying only when they receive their order, reducing fears of online fraud.

  2. Wider Customer Reach: Attracts customers who do not have access to digital payment methods or prefer cash transactions.

  3. Simplified Transactions: No need for complicated payment gateway setups, making it easier for businesses to start accepting payments immediately.

  4. Encourages More Purchases: Some customers may prefer to see and verify their purchase before paying, which can lead to increased order volumes.


Benefits of Card on Delivery

  1. Convenience: Customers can pay using their credit or debit card upon delivery, providing flexibility and convenience.

  2. Reduced Cash Handling: Minimizes the amount of cash handled by your delivery staff, reducing risks associated with cash transactions.

  3. Modern Payment Option: Offers a modern payment solution that can appeal to tech-savvy customers who prefer card transactions over cash.

  4. Immediate Payment Confirmation: Allows for quick confirmation of payments, ensuring faster processing and fulfillment of orders.
