COD Packaging in Costa Rica
Costa Rica has higher card penetration than its Central American neighbours but COD still represents ~35% of e-commerce volume. The mix favours hybrid merchants who can serve both rails. Professional packaging isn't just about protection — it's about conversion. In COD markets, your packaging is the first physical touchpoint with your customer. It builds trust, reduces refusals, and turns deliveries into completed sales.
