How to rename Cash on Delivery in Shopify checkout
Shopify shows the manual payment method as Cash on Delivery (COD). You can give it a clearer name, such as "Pay cash when your order arrives", and a separate name for customers who see checkout in Arabic.
Why rename it
- A clear name tells customers exactly what happens and reduces questions.
- Arabic-speaking customers see a natural Arabic name instead of a translated one.
- You can add a short promise, for example "Pay cash on delivery, inspect before you pay", if your courier allows it.
Steps with Steady COD Form (free plan)
- Turn on Cash on Delivery (COD) in Settings, Payments.
- Install Steady COD Form and open it.
- In Settings, type the name for English checkout and the name for Arabic checkout. Turn on Move cash on delivery up if you want it higher in the list.
- Click Save and open a checkout. Shopify keeps the card option on top, and Cash on Delivery appears right after it with your new name.
The free plan also adds a "Buy now, pay on delivery" button under Add to cart that takes the customer straight to checkout with the chosen product.
