- What is hard-gated confirmation and why does it matter?
- Hard-gated confirmation means no order enters our fulfillment system until it has been voice-confirmed by our call center. This is different from soft confirmation (SMS or WhatsApp only). Because unconfirmed orders never ship, a buyer who cannot be reached or no longer wants the order never turns into a paid shipment and a return.
- Why do you make 18 call attempts per order?
- LATAM buyers have irregular schedules, multiple phone numbers and prepaid SIMs that run out of credit. Our 18-call protocol (6 calls a day for 3 days) with varied timing gives buyers who want their order several chances to confirm it before it is marked unresponsive.
- What is your average confirmation rate?
- We do not publish a single average. Confirmation rates vary with product category, price point, source channel and country, so a network figure would say little about your store. Your dashboard shows the outcome of every order and call, and the COD profit calculator shows what a given confirmation and delivery rate means for contribution per delivered order. Orders that are not voice-confirmed are filtered out before shipping, so you do not pay outbound shipping or return charges on them.
- How does multi-carrier execution work?
- Where a market has more than one active carrier, confirmed orders are routed to the carrier with the best performance data for that delivery zone, and can move to a backup carrier if the primary one has issues. The carriers listed for each market are on its country page.
- What does COD-native finance ops mean?
- COD requires specialized finance operations: tracking cash collection, reconciling with carriers and remitting to merchants. We reconcile every order, pay out on the settlement cycle written in your contract, and show collected versus pending cash in real time.
- Do you have regional SOPs for different countries?
- Yes. Each market has a playbook that accounts for local buyer behavior, carrier ecosystems and payment culture while keeping one quality standard. Whether a market is operational or in expansion is shown on its country page.
- How does call confirmation reduce RTO in COD?
- Call confirmation validates three things before shipping: buyer intent (they actually want it), address accuracy (we can deliver it) and payment readiness (they have cash). Without this check, part of every COD cohort fails at the door, and how large that part is depends on product, price, channel and country. With it, orders that would fail for intent, address or cash reasons are stopped before dispatch.
- Can I listen to call recordings?
- Yes. Every call is recorded and accessible in your dashboard. You can review agent performance, buyer objections, and confirmation quality at any time.
- What happens to orders that fail the 18-call protocol?
- Orders that do not confirm after 18 attempts are marked as Unresponsive and do not ship. You are notified immediately. This saves you the shipping cost and RTO processing cost of sending to someone who was never reachable.
- How fast can you scale call center capacity?
- Staffing is planned from your forecast. Share your expected daily orders and campaign peaks during onboarding so capacity can be planned before launch.
