Use case · Order verification

COD verification before dispatch.

Confirm COD orders, capture address corrections, and write outcomes back to your OMS through API tools — all in a single call.

The problem

Half of COD RTO is preventable in a 45-second call.

An unverified COD order is a forward shipping cost, a reverse shipping cost, and restocking — for an order that never wanted to happen. A short verification call before dispatch, in the customer's language, cuts the wasted runs.

Problem · Solution

The problem today

An unverified COD order is a triple cost: forward shipping, reverse shipping, and restocking — for an order that often never wanted to happen. Half of Indian D2C RTO is preventable with a 45-second call before dispatch — confirming intent, correcting the address, sometimes converting to prepaid. But brands rarely have the human bandwidth to call every COD before dispatch, and the ones they do call get a hurried agent who skips the address read-back. The buyer in Bhopal who'd happily fix the typo gets a refused delivery instead.

How Vocily AI handles it

  • OMS-triggered verify call

    Your OMS fires a webhook on every new COD order. Vocily AI places the call within minutes — before the order moves to picking.

  • Address read-back & correction

    The agent reads the address back literally and captures corrections character-by-character — bad addresses get fixed before the SKU leaves the warehouse.

  • Prepaid conversion offer

    Where it makes sense, the agent offers a small prepaid incentive and sends a payment link via SMS or WhatsApp inside the call.

  • Cancellation capture

    Customers who never meant to order get a clean cancellation path with a reason code — no failed delivery, no reverse shipping cost.

  • Real-time OMS write-back

    Confirmed, address-updated, cancelled, prepaid — outcomes write back to your OMS in real time so the dispatch queue only sees verified orders.

Common questions

What teams ask before they switch.

Configurable — typically runs shortly after the OMS webhook fires, while the order is still fresh in the buyer's mind. Exact latency depends on your dispatch and dialer config.
