The default Shopify allows you to accept Cash on Delivery (COD) as a manual payment method, an essential option preferred by many shoppers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the default Cash on Delivery method is functional yet tedious, store owners are now adapting to a  Quick COD Order Form, a single-page pop-up that collects only essential delivery details. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, learn how to enable cash on delivery in a Shopify store using two options, including the quick COD order form method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Enable Cash on Delivery in Shopify (Default Method)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are the steps to activate Cash on Delivery using Shopify\u2019s default method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Navigate to your Shopify Admin and click on Settings<\/strong> > Payments<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, scroll down to the Manual payment methods <\/strong>and select Cash on Delivery (COD) <\/strong>from the drop-down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add any specific instructions for your customers (optional) and click Activate Cash on Delivery (COD).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

\"Click<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

This simple navigation activates Cash on Delivery as a payment option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the default checkout takes around 15 minutes to fill out the COD form with 10\u201315 fields, causing your shoppers to lose interest. For a shopper who simply wants to pay at their doorstep, this feels like a barrier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is where a quick COD order form makes a real difference. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It bypasses the traditional checkout and lets customers order directly from the product page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The standard checkout asks for email addresses, account creation, and multiple clicks. When you replace the multi-step checkout with a Quick COD Order Form, you condense the entire buying journey into a single, high-converting step directly on your product page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no default method to activate the quick order form; simply follow these steps of a Shopify app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1: Install and Enable the App<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Install the MIT Quick Order Form COD<\/a> app in your Shopify store, then select COD Form<\/strong> from the left sidebar and toggle the quick order form to Enable<\/strong> within the app dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n

Step 2: Choose Form Style & Customize Form Field <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Start by selecting whether you want the order form to appear as a pop-up or an embedded form directly on product pages. A preview of both options is available on the right-hand side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
