<p>The Advance Cash on Delivery with Fee is a powerful WooCommerce extension that extends the standard COD feature by adding an extra fee and restrictions based on multiple conditions. For example, conditions could include user roles, location, product, cart amounts, shipping zones, classes, and more.</p>
<p>This extension will help you remain sure of COD secure transactions by assisting in excluding risky elements such as areas, order amount, products, locations, and customers. You can filter out any other factor that might have an impact. Carrying out a COD transaction could cost you extra at times. Enabling an additional surcharge for providing COD services can help you overcome any extra costs incurred during the process.</p>

<h2>Sell Pre-Orders for Products and Services</h2>
<p>The pre-order experience is fully customizable and supports both pre-orders charged up front and upon release. If you’re using a supported payment gateway, pre-orders can be charged upon release without the customer returning and paying for their order.</p>

<h2>Easy Pre-Order Management</h2>
<p>Pre-Orders can be charged in two ways, upfront or upon release. When charging a pre-order up front, the customer pays the entire pre-order amount during the initial checkout.</p>
<p>When charging a pre-order upon release, the customer’s payment method is charged when the product is released (either by reaching the availability date, if set, or manually within the Pre-Orders admin) when using a supported gateway. If a supported gateway is not available, the customer will receive an email when the pre-order is released, prompting them to come back to the store and pay for their pre-order.</p>
<p>All pre-orders can be managed through a dedicated page. From here, the admin can delay, complete, cancel, or email selected pre-orders or use the actions section to perform the same actions for all pre-orders for a given product.</p>
<h2>Automatically Charge Pre-Orders Upon Release</h2>
<p>When you use one of the <a href="https://woocommerce.com/document/pre-orders/#supported-gateways-for-automatic-payments">supported payment gateways</a>, you can automatically charge your customer’s payment method when the pre-order is available. All gateways support manual payments for pre-orders, where the customer is sent an email asking them to come back and pay for their pre-order when it’s released.</p>
