Prepaid Order Discounts & Hide COD on Shopify

How Payflow solves this

• Reduce return rates — COD orders are 3–5× more likely to be returned or refused at delivery
• Improve cash flow — get paid immediately instead of waiting for delivery completion
• Lower operational costs — save on COD handling fees, failed delivery attempts, and reverse logistics
• Decrease fraud risk — prepaid orders eliminate fake orders and intentional non-acceptance
