Inventory & shipping
COD & RTO cost calculator
Cash-on-delivery orders that are refused come back at your cost. See the monthly RTO bill and what it adds to every delivered order.
How it is calculated
- RTO orders = COD orders × COD RTO rate + prepaid orders × prepaid RTO rate.
- RTO cost = RTO orders × (forward + RTO shipping + COD fee where applicable) + damaged share × product cost.
- Logistics cost per delivered order = all shipping and COD costs ÷ delivered orders.
