Can I block cash on delivery for far-away orders?
Updated 9 October 2026
Yes, if your ordering system lets you set payment rules by distance. Asking for online payment on far-away orders avoids a refused cash order you must carry back.
- Split delivery into distance bands, with a rule for each band.
- Allow cash nearby and require online payment far away.
- Tell customers the rule at checkout, before they order.
- Courier-band orders can be set to no cash.
