Confirm COD orders on WhatsApp

WhatsApp order confirmation and COD order confirmation for Shopify stores. Verify intent with one-tap Confirm or Cancel before you ship — reduce fake orders and RTO.

Quick answer

Level is a Shopify app that sends a WhatsApp order confirmation after every COD checkout. The customer taps Confirm or Cancel — no OTP — and you only ship verified orders.

What is COD order confirmation on WhatsApp?

COD order confirmation means verifying that the customer is real and reachable before you ship a Cash on Delivery order.

Level sends a WhatsApp order confirmation with one-tap Confirm or Cancel — no OTP, no codes to type.

How COD order confirmation works

  1. 1. Customer places a COD order

    When checkout completes with Cash on Delivery, Level receives the order and phone number from Shopify automatically — no CSV export or manual copy-paste.

  2. 2. WhatsApp message with Confirm or Cancel

    The customer gets a short WhatsApp message with their order summary and two buttons. They tap Confirm to verify or Cancel if they did not place the order. Reminders go out if they do not respond.

  3. 3. You ship verified orders only

    The order is tagged Verified, Pending, or Cancelled in Level and Shopify. Many stores auto-cancel unverified COD orders after a reminder window so fake orders never reach the warehouse.

WhatsApp order confirmation for Shopify

Every COD order triggers an automatic WhatsApp order confirmation message. The customer sees their order details and taps Confirm or Cancel.
