Cash on delivery rounding

Simplify cash payments and eliminate decimal inconsistencies with automatic cash on delivery rounding. This feature adjusts cash on delivery (CoD) orders by rounding up their total and adding a small fee to ensure clean, easy-to-handle payment amounts.

How It Works

The cash on delivery rounding feature adjusts order totals for CoD payments by rounding the total amount up. This ensures simple and clean payment amounts for cash transactions. The rounding behavior depends on the currency:

EUR (Euro): Orders are rounded up to the nearest 0.05. This eliminates small cent amounts, simplifying cash handling.

• Example: €23.37 → €23.40, €23.32 → €23.35.

HUF (Hungarian Forint): Orders are rounded up to the nearest 5. This complies with Hungarian cash-handling standards.

• Example: 766 HUF → 770 HUF, 773 HUF → 775 HUF.

All Other Currencies (e.g., CZK): Orders are rounded up to the nearest whole number.

• Example: 760.43 CZK → 761 CZK, 599.99 CZK → 600 CZK.

The rounding difference is added as a small fee, ensuring transparency for both your store and your customers.
