Charge a Cash on Delivery (COD) fee \u2014 or any payment-method surcharge or discount \u2014 in 60 seconds. No code. No bloat. Works on classic and<\/em> block checkout.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

WooCommerce has no built-in way to add a fee when a customer picks a specific payment method. If you offer Cash on Delivery you absorb the courier collection fee and the cost of returned parcels; if you take cards you absorb the processor fee. This plugin lets you pass that cost on \u2014 or reward prepaid customers with a discount \u2014 cleanly, in the checkout totals.<\/p>\n\n

It does one thing well<\/strong>: when the customer selects the payment method you choose, it adds your fee (or discount) to the order.<\/p>\n\n

Features<\/h4>\n\n
    \n
  • One flat fee or<\/strong> discount (negative amount) when a chosen gateway is selected<\/li>\n
  • Pick which payment method triggers it (any registered gateway)<\/li>\n
  • Custom, customer-facing fee label<\/li>\n
  • Taxable \/ non-taxable toggle<\/li>\n
  • Works on classic and block checkout, with the fee updating live when the shopper switches payment method<\/li>\n
  • Fee shows on checkout totals, order confirmation, customer email and the admin order screen<\/li>\n
  • One clean WooCommerce settings tab \u2014 no extra admin menu clutter<\/li>\n
  • Lightweight: no jQuery; a tiny script loads only on the checkout page, everything else is server-side PHP<\/li>\n
  • HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage) compatible<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
    \n

    Some countries and US states restrict surcharging card payments. Check your local rules before adding a fee to card gateways.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n

      \n

    2. Activate it.<\/li>\n
    3. Go to WooCommerce \u2192 Settings \u2192 Checkout Fees<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
    4. Enable the fee, choose the Payment method<\/strong> (e.g. Cash on Delivery), set a Fee label<\/strong> and Fee amount<\/strong>, toggle Taxable<\/strong> if needed, and Save changes<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
    5. Place a test order on a staging site to confirm the fee appears when that method is selected.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
      \n

      Does it work with the new WooCommerce block checkout?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. The fee appears and updates live when the customer changes payment method, on both classic and block checkout.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Can I add a discount instead of a fee?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes \u2014 enter a negative amount (e.g. -5). It shows as a discount and is capped so the order total can never go below zero.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Is the fee taxed?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Your choice. Enable Taxable<\/strong> to apply the store standard tax class, or leave it off for a tax-free fee.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Which payment methods are supported?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Any registered gateway \u2014 Cash on Delivery, Bank Transfer, Cheque, Stripe, PayPal, WooPayments and third-party gateways.<\/p><\/dd>\n

      Does it work with HPOS (High-Performance Order Storage)?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes \u2014 it declares HPOS compatibility and uses the WooCommerce order API.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
