What is an AI COD confirmation call?

An AI COD confirmation call is an automated phone call to a buyer who chose cash on delivery. It reads out the order and amount, asks the buyer to confirm, cancel or change it, and checks the delivery address and preferred day. Confirmed orders go to dispatch, and the result reaches your store by webhook.

Why is this hard to do by hand?

Fake and impulse COD ordersSome buyers place COD orders on a whim or by mistake. You pay forward shipping and return shipping when they refuse the parcel.
Manual calling does not scaleA sale day can bring 4,000 COD orders. Your team cannot call each one before the courier pickup cut-off.
Wrong addresses and numbersMissing landmarks, wrong pin codes and switched-off numbers cause failed deliveries that a short call could have fixed.

How does an AI COD order confirmation call work?

  1. New COD order is placedYour store or order system sends the order to the MsgClub API, or you upload a sheet of pending COD orders.
  2. AI calls the buyerThe agent calls in the language you set, reads out product and amount, and asks the buyer to confirm, cancel or change.
  3. Address and day checkedIt confirms the address, landmark and a preferred delivery day, and records any change the buyer asks for.
  4. Result goes to your systemThe webhook sends confirmed, cancelled or changed status back, so your team or system can release, hold or cancel the order.
  5. Order details on WhatsAppRight after the call, MsgClub can send an order summary or prepaid-payment link on WhatsApp or SMS.

Which versions can you run?

Standard confirm or cancelThe AI confirms product, size and amount. Cancellations go back to your system before the order is packed.
COD to prepaid nudgeIf you run a prepaid offer, the AI mentions it and sends the payment link on WhatsApp right after the call for buyers who agree.
High-value or repeat-RTO buyersYour system sends only risky orders for a call, such as high cart value or past refusals, and the AI asks an extra confirmation question.

COD order confirmation: common questions

How soon after the order does the call go out?

The call starts when your system sends the order to the MsgClub API, so you control the timing. Many brands call within minutes of the order, while the buyer still remembers it.

Does it work with my online store?

Yes, through the MsgClub REST API. Any store or order system that can send an API request when a COD order is placed can start the call, and the result comes back to it by webhook. You can also upload a sheet of pending orders.

Can the AI update the address in our system?

The AI records the corrected address or landmark and sends it in the webhook result. Your system or team then updates the order. You also see it in the dashboard with the recording.

Which languages can COD calls use?

Hindi, English, Hinglish, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Gujarati, Punjabi, Bengali, Odia and Assamese. Set the language per campaign, for example by state or pin code range.

What happens if the buyer does not answer?

The outcome is marked as not answered in the dashboard and webhook. Your system can start another call through the API or hold the order.

Can it convert COD orders to prepaid?

Yes, if you offer it. The AI mentions your prepaid offer, and for buyers who agree, MsgClub sends the payment link on WhatsApp or SMS right after the call.
