Built for COD markets • No card needed to start
The Store Builder Made For Cash on Delivery
In most of MENA, Africa and emerging markets, customers pay when the package arrives - not with a card. Card-first platforms treat that as a workaround. Devaito treats it as the default: native COD checkout, WhatsApp confirmation to kill fake orders, and a store in Arabic, French or any of 100+ languages.
Your customers pay cash. Your store should speak that language.
Card-First Platforms vs A COD-First Store
What selling cash-on-delivery actually looks like on each
| What you get | Shopify / Wix | Devaito |
|---|---|---|
| COD at checkout | Workarounds & plugins | Native, one toggle |
| Order confirmation on WhatsApp | Included - kills fake orders | |
| Store in Arabic (RTL) | Paid apps / partial | Included |
| Customer needs a card | Built around cards | Never |
| Merchant needs a card to start | Trial often asks | No card, 7-day trial |
| Ads for COD offers (Meta) | Paid apps | Ads manager included |
| Dropshipping import | Paid apps | CJ import included |
| Entry price with a store | $29/mo | $19.99/mo |
Comparison reflects publicly documented capabilities as of July 2026. COD is not a checkout edge case - in many markets it is most of ecommerce.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers before you commit
Is cash on delivery really native?
Yes. COD is a standard checkout option - not a plugin or a workaround. Customers order without any card, and the order lands in your dashboard like any other.
How do I reduce fake COD orders?
The WhatsApp agent confirms each order and delivery address in chat before you ship. Confirmed-by-chat orders are dramatically more reliable than blind COD.
Can my store be in Arabic and French?
Yes - both, side by side. The builder supports Arabic with proper RTL layout, and one click translates the store into 100+ languages.
Do I need a bank card to start?
No. The 7-day free trial with 2,000,000 AI credits requires no card. And if you later want card payments too, local gateways can be enabled alongside COD.
How do I get COD customers?
The included Meta ads manager writes and launches campaigns for your offers, and the AI generates daily social posts and UGC-style product videos - the formats COD shoppers actually buy from.
What does it cost?
Store plans start at $19.99/mo with COD, WhatsApp agent, ads manager, 100+ languages and your own mobile app included. Try everything free for 7 days first.
