Cash on delivery: Meaning, Uses and What to Buy

Cash on delivery (COD) means you pay for an order when the courier hands it over, instead of paying online in advance. It is popular in India, especially for a first order from a new shop, because you pay only once you have the parcel. At LustSutra cash on delivery is available on every order, with free delivery.

Why it matters when buying

COD helps with privacy too, because nothing about the order appears on a card statement. Make sure someone is home to receive and pay, and keep the amount ready.

What to look for

  • COD with no extra fee
  • The order total shown before you confirm
  • Plain, unbranded packaging

Where to shop

COD is a way to pay, not a product. See discreet delivery and our FAQ for how it works.
