NCB WooCommerce Customer Trust & Privileges

Cash on delivery, without the parcels that come back

About

Stop losing money on cash-on-delivery parcels that are never collected. Customers who prove they are serious pay a small refundable deposit and become members. Members get cash on delivery with nothing upfront. Everyone else prepays the shipping, so an uncollected parcel costs you nothing.

Overview

A trust system for WooCommerce stores that accept cash on delivery. Customers pay a small refundable deposit to become members, and members get cash on delivery with nothing upfront. Everyone else prepays the shipping cost, so an uncollected parcel never costs you money.

NCB WooCommerce Customer Trust & Privileges

Every cash-on-delivery parcel that is never collected costs you shipping twice, packaging and time. For a mid-sized store that is hundreds of euros a year, lost without a single sale. Most plugins answer this by removing cash on delivery, which costs you the customers who only buy that way. NCB Customer Trust & Privileges takes the opposite route: cash on delivery stays, but it goes to the customers who have earned it. MEMBERSHIP BUILT ON A REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT Customers pay a deposit once, at a price you set, and become members. The deposit is never your revenue: you owe it back and return it whenever they ask. That single payment is what separates a serious buyer from a passing click. PRIVILEGES THAT MAKE MEMBERSHIP WORTH IT Cash on delivery with nothing upfront is the main one. On top of it you can switch on a birthday discount, a reward after a number of orders, a free or discounted gift product, free shipping from a lower threshold, and priority handling. Each one is a switch. PREPAID CASH ON DELIVERY FOR EVERYONE ELSE Non-members are not turned away. They get cash on delivery with a small prepayment that covers shipping and the cash-on-delivery fee, paid by bank transfer or instant payment. The goods are still paid to the courier. An uncollected parcel costs you nothing. CONTROL OVER EVERY PAYMENT METHOD Decide who sees each payment method at checkout: everyone, members only, or everyone except members. Cash on delivery added by another plugin is detected and follows the same rule, so nobody slips through. Cash-on-delivery fees are set per courier, and store pickup never offers cash on delivery. WHEN SOMEONE DOES NOT COLLECT Mark the order as a failed delivery and the customer is listed. If they were a member, one click ends the membership and keeps the deposit. They can become a member again by paying a new one. IN GREEK AND IN ENGLISH Fully translated, with a step-by-step user manual written for store owners rather than developers. Try it free for 14 days. No payment method required.

Who it's for

WooCommerce stores where cash on delivery is a large share of orders and uncollected parcels are a real cost: Greece, Italy, Spain, Poland, Romania, the Middle East. Built for store owners who do not want to drop cash on delivery, but cannot keep paying for parcels that come back.

How it works

A customer pays a small deposit once, for example 10 euros, and becomes a member. The money stays with you and is returned whenever they ask for it. While they are a member, they pay by cash on delivery as usual, with nothing upfront, plus any other privileges you choose to give them.

Customers who are not members see cash on delivery with prepayment instead: they pay the shipping and the cash-on-delivery fee upfront by bank transfer or instant payment, and the value of the goods to the courier on delivery. If they never collect the parcel, you have already covered your cost.

When a member fails to collect a parcel, you record it with one click inside the order. Their deposit is not returned and their membership ends.

Everything is controlled with switches in the WordPress admin. Setup takes about fifteen minutes and the plugin ships with a full user manual.
