Cash on Delivery Cost Calculator
Cash on delivery is still a large share of Kuwait orders, and it's the most under-costed thing in most stores. The fee per order is visible; the return rate is not. Enter both to see the real cost.
Estimates only — edit any field to match your real numbers.
Every returned COD order costs you twice: the delivery out, the delivery back, and the stock sitting in a van instead of on a shelf. If your return rate is above 15%, incentivising prepayment with a small discount is usually cheaper than absorbing it.

What's a normal COD return rate in Kuwait?+
It varies widely by category and by how well you confirm orders before dispatch. A WhatsApp confirmation step before the courier collects is the single most effective way to bring it down.
Are the amounts in Kuwaiti dinars?+
Yes — every currency field is KWD. The maths is currency-agnostic, so you can use it with any currency as long as you stay consistent across the fields.
Is this tool really free? Do I need an account?+
Free, and no account. Everything runs in your browser — we never see your numbers unless you press save to create a shareable link.
