Can COD be used alongside electronic payments in the same store?

A Vareons store can show cash on delivery alongside electronic payment gateways on the same checkout page, since each method runs on independent settings. The cash option is governed by its own toggle read from the defined payment methods, while gateways such as Paymob run from their native settings in the payment gateways tab. The independence lets the customer choose what fits: instant electronic payment or cash settlement on delivery, with no conflict between the two.

Steps for combining both methods

1. Open payment settings and confirm the target electronic gateway is configured with its native credentials.
2. Turn on the cash-on-delivery toggle in the payment methods section so the option shows at checkout.
3. Save the settings and preview the checkout as a visitor to confirm both options appear together.
4. Train the team on handling each type: instant confirmation for electronic payments, collection recording on delivery for cash.
5. Follow reports per method separately to assess uptake and tune the sales policy.

Clarify the payment policy on the checkout page so customers choose confidently, and compare return patterns for cash orders against electronic ones. If fake orders rise, back the cash path with confirmation tools rather than disabling it outright.
