When To Use
C.O.D. is an abbreviation for cash on delivery, referring to an arrangement in which payment for a purchase is made directly by the purchaser to the person who delivers the item.C.O.D. can also stand for collect on delivery, meaning the same thing. That’s because C.O.D. doesn’t necessarily always mean that actual cash (paper money) is required (though it often used to mean this). Sometimes, a check, money order, or credit card payment will be accepted as C.O.D.C.O.D. can be used as a noun, as in Sorry, we don’t accept C.O.D.s. It can also be used as an adverb, as in We’re shipping it C.O.D.; as an adjective, as in Our C.O.D. orders are behind schedule; and in other variations.Although the term can be spelled without periods, they’re usually included to make it clear that the term is an abbreviation.Example: Most of our shipments are done C.O.D., and we have a high percentage of successful payments.
