What are COD flows on CampaignHQ?
COD flows automate WhatsApp conversations after a cash-on-delivery order: confirm intent, verify address details, and send dispatch updates before packages leave the warehouse.
Built for high-volume Shopify brands in India and similar markets where COD is a large share of orders.
Order confirmation
Ask buyers to confirm or cancel before you ship.
Address verify
Collect corrections when details look incomplete.
RTO reduction
Flag risky orders for manual review.
Manual COD calls vs WhatsApp automation
Phone tag does not scale. Automated WhatsApp flows reach buyers where they already respond.
Manual ops
Calling every COD order
- Team bandwidth limits throughput
- Inconsistent scripts
- Slow address fixes
- High RTO on bad numbers
