WhatsApp cash on delivery confirmation templates in Chinese

By Alva Chew 8 min read Updated November 11, 2026

A cash on delivery confirmation in Chinese asks the customer to confirm the order, the amount to pay at the door and the delivery address before you ship. Below are 8 templates written in Chinese, each with an English gloss, from the first confirmation to reminders, address checks and an offer to pay online. AeroChat sends them when a COD order comes in and updates the order from the customer’s reply, whatever words they use.

Writing cash on delivery confirmations in Chinese

These templates are in Simplified Chinese as it is written in Malaysia and Singapore. Use 您 rather than 你 for a polite tone with customers you don’t know. Shoppers in both countries often mix in English words such as “order”, “COD” or “size”, so a few English terms in a reply read naturally. Keep sentences short and direct. Long, formal openings feel stiff in a chat.

WhatsApp rules to know before you send

  • The 24-hour window. If the customer messaged you in the last 24 hours, you can send any of these as a free-text reply. Outside that customer service window, a business-initiated message needs an approved template.
  • Utility, if it stays about the order. These messages fit Meta’s utility category when they are about the customer’s own order and contain nothing promotional. A template that mixes an order update with a promotion is classed as marketing. Keep offers out.
  • One language per template. You choose a language when you submit a template. Submit the Chinese text as its own version, next to your English one. See the WhatsApp message templates guide and the glossary entry on WhatsApp message templates.

8 WhatsApp cash on delivery confirmation templates in Chinese

Copy a template, adjust the wording to how your store talks, and keep the variables in double curly brackets in English. AeroChat fills them from your store data when it sends the message. The English line under each template is a gloss, so you know what it says.

Send these automatically with AeroChat

AeroChat sends the first Chinese confirmation when a cash on delivery order lands in your store platform, such as Shopify, WooCommerce or Wix, then acts on the reply in the same chat. Customers rarely type the exact keyword. AeroChat reads the reply as written, in Chinese, English or a mix, so a short yes, a request to change the address or a question about the total are each handled correctly.

  • Confirmed: AeroChat tags the order as confirmed so your team or courier booking can go ahead. With POS Malaysia connected, the shipment can be booked straight away.
  • Canceled: AeroChat cancels the order or tags it for your team, as you set in the workflow.
  • New address: AeroChat reads the address back to the customer and updates the order once they confirm it.
  • Pay online: AeroChat sends a payment link from your gateway, such as HitPay, Airwallex, and switches the order to prepaid once the payment is detected.
  • No reply: the reminder and final reminder go out at the times you choose.

Copy this into AeroChat

When a cash on delivery order comes in, send our approved COD confirmation template in the customer’s language (example: the Chinese version for customers who wrote to us in Chinese) with the order number, items, total and address. In Chinese, use 您, keep it short and warm. If the customer confirms, in any words, tag the order as confirmed. If they cancel, cancel the order. If they send a new address, read it back and update the order once they confirm. If they ask to pay online, send a payment link and mark the order prepaid when the payment is detected. If there is no reply after 12 hours (example), send one reminder, and cancel after 48 hours (example).

Questions

Is a COD confirmation in Chinese a utility template?

It fits Meta’s utility category when it is about the customer’s own order and contains nothing promotional. Keep offers out of it. The pay online version is about paying for the same order, not a promotion.

Do I need a separate Chinese template?

Yes, for the first message outside the 24-hour window. Each approved template has one language, so submit a Chinese version next to your English one.

What if the customer replies in their own words instead of the keyword?

AeroChat reads the reply as written, so a short yes, a request to change the address or a question about the total are each handled correctly.

What if the customer writes in English, or mixes Chinese and English?

AeroChat replies in the language the customer writes in. If they mix Chinese with English words, or switch language halfway through the chat, AeroChat follows them. You don’t need to set a language per customer.

AeroChat also answers your customers in Chinese on every channel. See AI customer service in Chinese.
