What is a COD fee on Wix?

A COD fee is an extra charge added at checkout when a customer chooses Cash on Delivery as a payment option. It can be a fixed amount or a percentage of the order total.

Is the COD fee added to every order?

No. The fee is added only when a customer chooses Cash on Delivery as a payment option at checkout. Other payment methods are not charged the cash on delivery fee.

Can I customize the COD fee name at checkout?

Yes. You can set the label shoppers see, such as COD fee, COD handling fee, or Cash on Delivery surcharge.

Can I use a fixed amount or a percentage for the COD fee?

You configure one fee type at a time: either a fixed cash on delivery fee or a percentage of the order total.

Does a COD fee change my shipping setup?

No. The COD fee applies only when Cash on Delivery is selected. Your shipping rules and other payment methods stay the same.

Benefits Overview

Why Wix stores add a COD fee at checkout

Key ways Wix merchants use this setup to improve product clarity and shopper confidence before checkout.

Offset COD collection costs

Couriers and payment partners often charge more to collect cash on delivery. A COD fee passes that overhead to the orders that create it.

Clear fee line before place order

The COD fee appears as soon as Cash on Delivery is selected, so shoppers see the full total on mobile and desktop checkout.

Works alongside existing Wix checkout

Your COD fee rule runs in the background. Shipping rates, product prices, and other payment methods stay as they are.

Personalization Flow

Why merchants add a cash on delivery fee

Cash on Delivery creates real handling and collection costs. A dedicated COD fee at checkout lets you recover those expenses, keep totals transparent, and leave prepaid orders untouched.

Pass COD collection costs to the right orders

Every cash on delivery order can carry courier and handling overhead. A COD fee recovers those costs on the payment method that creates them.

Use a fixed COD fee when your collection cost is predictable.
Use a percentage fee when higher order values cost more to collect.
Keep prepaid checkout free of cash on delivery surcharges.

Show the COD fee before checkout completes

Shoppers see the cash on delivery fee as soon as they select COD at checkout, with your custom label and tax behavior applied.

Display the fee name customers expect at checkout.
Align tax settings with how you report COD fees.
Keep totals visible on mobile checkout screens.

Limit the fee to COD payment only

The COD fee applies only when Cash on Delivery is chosen. Other payment options and your shipping setup stay unchanged.

Leave card and wallet orders without a COD fee.
Apply the same rule on every cash on delivery checkout.
Upgrade when COD order volume outgrows the free plan.
