Hello there,
Time for a little back story. But first, my name is Pritika Loonia.
I started Coverful with big dreams of providing only quality products and in the most convenient way possible. And what's more convenient than getting free shipping and COD option too! I was ready to bear the extra cost so my customers are comfortable and are able to trust me. But things didn't go as planned. A huge number of people started ordering products on COD, Cash On Delivery but refused the parcel at doorstep, now I have to bear not only the shipping cost but also the return shipping charges (RTO) for the product. I thought may be this will improve and kept giving COD option until this.
Do you see the RED LINE ? RTO (Return To Origin) are the number of shipments that were refused by customers and are coming back to the me. About 40% of people refusing the package is bringing a huge pain to my small business and so with heavy heart I decided to stop COD. But free shipping on every order will always be there for all you lovely people. I wanted people to know the back story, so here it is.
I can totally understand if its hard for you to do online payment without any guarantee with a new start up. I myself would think twice before paying my hard earned money to new random website. Here is the thing, go to our Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/coverful.in/
Click on the reviews and see for yourself how real people are receiving their products everyday and loving it, you also find a ton of reels of me packing these cases.
I am so glad that you took time and read this long back story, I am sorry for requesting you to prepay instead of COD all the time but so happy that you understand and forever grateful for your support, thank you from the bottom of my heart :)
