Every plan, side by side.
Verification, scoring and rules are identical across plans. What changes is the price of a message — the only thing that scales with your volume — plus the address-correction flow, which needs a paid plan.

No line item you have to go looking for.
Billing surprises cost more trust than they ever earn in revenue. Here is everything that can appear on your invoice.
Messages are the only usage charge
OTPs, abandoned-checkout nudges and address-update links all bill at your plan's rate for the channel they went out on. The rate depends on the channel, never on what the message was for. An order that sends no message costs you nothing.
No per-order fee
COD and partial orders carry no per-order charge. A $0.05 verification fee existed in an earlier version of CODGuard and has been removed. COD orders are still counted for your dashboard and plan limits — they are simply never charged for.
Usage is capped
Every plan carries a Shopify capped amount — $50 on Free, Starter and Growth, $100 on Enterprise. Usage charges stop at the cap until you approve a higher one, so a runaway month cannot quietly bill you.
No trials, on any plan
Nothing starts a countdown you have to remember to cancel. The Free plan is the trial: it is a real ₹0 subscription with the same verification, scoring and rules as the rest, and you only pay for messages you actually send.
Historic rates are honoured
Every message stores the exact rate it was billed at. Your billing page values past messages at what they actually cost, not at your current plan's rate.
Shopify bills in US dollars
Shopify charges every app in USD and app-store prices cannot be listed in another currency. The rupee figures are what each plan is named after, fixed at ₹83 = $1; the dollar amount beside them is what Shopify actually takes.
Which plan actually pays for itself?
Set your own volumes, then switch plan and channel to see where the message rate starts to matter more than the plan fee.
Your numbers
Returns divided by orders shipped COD — not orders placed.
Both freight legs, packaging, handling on both ends, and an amortised write-down for stock that cannot be resold as A-grade.
Your assumption, not a promise. Verification removes typos and much impulse ordering; rules and scoring handle the rest.

Loss avoided, less the plan fee and message cost. Excludes prepaid conversion, which changes the arithmetic further in your favour.
An estimate built from your inputs, not a forecast. Shopify bills every app in USD. Rupee figures are fixed at ₹83 = $1 and the dollar amount Shopify charges is always shown beside them.
The fine print, in plain words.
Anything not covered here, ask us before you install rather than after.
Shopify bills every app in USD. Rupee figures are fixed at ₹83 = $1 and the dollar amount Shopify charges is always shown beside them.
Every plan — Free included — is a real Shopify subscription with a usage line item, because usage has to have something to bill against. Approving the ₹0 plan takes one click and costs nothing, but until it is approved CODGuard will not send OTPs.
