Wikipedia states that Cash on delivery (COD) or collect on delivery is also a kind of sale by mail order. This is the form of sale where payment is received with delivery. When there is no pay, goods are returned back to the retailer. According to me, the main benefit of COD as a customer is that your customers can pay only after they get the product in hand. The other important advantage of cash on delivery is that it doesn’t depend upon credit or debit cards. This factor is helpful in suburban or rural areas, where many people do not use cards. This option also attracts a lot of customers.
