In cashless society era, let's see Top 10 countries mostly use Cash on Delivery...

 

1. Thailand

 

Even most of Thai people begin to change to use cashless payment, but there are also so many that still use cash as the main payment for everyday life.

 

The products they buy online are handmade products, products from China, and IT products. The most popular online shopping websites are social media like Facebook and Instagram, and marketplace like Shopee and Lazada.

 

2. Mexico

 

Cash is a king in Mexico. Mexican people like to use cash. So, cash on delivery is used unsurprisingly.

 

The best selling products in Mexico is fashion accessories, video games equipment, and furniture. They explore products online in Mercado Libre, Amazon, and Liverpool.com

 

3. Indonesia

 

As being a neighbor of Thailand, their behavior of payment is quite the same. Cash is still number one. So, cash on delivery is also perfect for them.

 

They spend their money mostly on clothes and accessories, personal care, and cosmetics. The popular online applications are OLX Indonesia by Tokobagus, Lazada, and Tokopedia.

 

4. Germany

 

There are 50.71 million eCommerce users in Germany, with an additional 2.91 million users expected to be shopping online by 2021. It's surprised that cash payment is still in a high demand in Germany. Germany holds Europe’s highest rate of invoice transactions— meaning customers only pay for goods once they decide what to keep after delivery.

 

That makes it easier to abort a purchase and return the product before any money changes hands. I reckon this is the main reason why COD service is still popular in Germany.
Top German selling products are books, shoes and women clothing. eBay and Idealo are most favoured shopping channel

5. Greece

According to the research of Greece Daily, Greece is the highest cash use country in the Europe, about 57% of population use cash only.

 

Rather than shopping in cash, Greek would like to use cash to pay monthly debts, as water bills , rent or even taxes.
