How does a percentage COD fee work on Wix?

You set a percentage of the order total. When a customer chooses Cash on Delivery as a payment option at checkout, the app adds that calculated cash on delivery fee to the order.

Can I use a percentage and a fixed COD fee together?

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

Is the percentage fee charged on every order?

No. The percentage COD fee applies only when Cash on Delivery is selected at checkout. Other payment methods are not charged the cash on delivery fee.

Does the percentage fee change shipping?

No. It is a separate COD fee line. Your shipping rates and non-COD payment methods stay the same.

Benefits Overview

When a percentage COD fee fits your store

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

Scale the fee with order value

A percentage cash on delivery fee grows with the cart total, which suits couriers or partners that charge more to collect on larger COD orders.

Visible percentage fee at checkout

Shoppers see the calculated cash on delivery fee as soon as they select COD, with your label and tax settings on the checkout summary.

COD orders only

The percentage fee runs only when Cash on Delivery is the payment option. Prepaid checkout and shipping setup stay unchanged.

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.

Match fees to order size

When collection cost rises with order value, a percentage cash on delivery fee keeps recovery proportional to the COD total.

Set the percentage COD fee in the app dashboard.
Compare the rate to your courier or partner pricing.
Use a fixed fee instead if every order costs the same to collect.

Show the calculated fee upfront

The percentage cash on delivery fee appears on the checkout summary when COD is selected, with the full total before confirmation.

Label the percentage COD fee for your shoppers.
Confirm tax behavior on the calculated fee.
Check mobile checkout displays the updated total.

Apply the percentage only to COD

The percentage fee does not touch prepaid orders. Product prices, shipping, and other payment methods remain as they are.

Verify non-COD orders have no cash on delivery fee.
Run one percentage rule across COD checkouts.
Upgrade when COD volume exceeds the free plan limit.

A percentage COD fee made sense for us. Bigger cash on delivery orders cost more to collect and the fee tracks that.
