Description
COD Scale Bridge connects a WordPress or WooCommerce store to the COD Scale
software service. It provides a configurable cash-on-delivery checkout,
product and order synchronization, WooCommerce order mirroring, fulfillment
status synchronization, courier operations, conversion tracking, and COD
finance reconciliation.
The plugin uses a short, one-time connection code generated in the merchant’s
COD Scale store workspace. Store credentials remain server-side and are not
exposed to checkout JavaScript.
Key capabilities include:
- Product and variation synchronization from WooCommerce to COD Scale.
- Configurable product-page, landing-page, and cart COD checkout placement.
- Server-authoritative prices, shipping rates, variants, and order totals.
- Idempotent COD Scale and WooCommerce order creation.
- Two-way operational status synchronization.
- Optional browser tracking configured in the merchant’s COD Scale workspace.
- A COD Scale Checkout widget for Elementor when Elementor is active.
Detailed setup documentation is available at
https://codscale.io/en/docs/wordpress-bridge-install.
External services
This plugin requires the COD Scale service at https://app.codscale.io. An
administrator must explicitly connect the site before authenticated service
requests are made.
To provide the connected service, the plugin can send the store identity and
URL, plugin version, product catalog, checkout configuration, orders, customer
contact and delivery details, shopper-selected checkout attachments,
fulfillment status, attribution identifiers, and operational diagnostics to
COD Scale. This data is used for checkout processing, store synchronization,
order operations, fulfillment, tracking, attribution, diagnostics, and finance
reconciliation.
When a merchant enables a supported browser tracking integration, the checkout
may load scripts and send configured events to Meta, TikTok, Google Ads, Google
Analytics, or Snapchat. These integrations are disabled unless configured by
the merchant, and COD Scale’s consent setting controls whether browser signals
are sent.

The merchant is responsible for describing these services in the store’s
privacy policy and configuring legally appropriate visitor consent.
Privacy
After activation, the plugin adds suggested COD Scale wording to the WordPress
Privacy Policy Guide. Review and adapt that wording for the store’s actual
configuration, enabled advertising platforms, and legal obligations.
Development
The human-readable source for the compiled checkout JavaScript and CSS shipped
in assets/ is included in source/checkout-runtime/. From that directory,
run npm install and npm run build. The build output is written to dist/;
the release process copies the generated JavaScript and CSS into the plugin’s
assets/ directory after tests and source-parity checks pass.
Installation
- Install and activate COD Scale Bridge.
- Open the store in COD Scale and generate a one-time WordPress connection code.
- In WordPress, open COD Scale > Bridge Settings.
- Paste the code and choose Save and verify connection.
- Synchronize WooCommerce products, then configure checkout and tracking in COD Scale.
WooCommerce is optional for the basic shortcode checkout. Product, variation,
native order, cart, and fulfillment synchronization require WooCommerce.
Elementor is optional.
FAQ
-
Do I paste an API key?
-
No. Use the short one-time connection code generated by COD Scale. The plugin
redeems it server-side for store-scoped credentials. -
Does the plugin replace WooCommerce checkout automatically?
-
No. Product-page and cart-checkout placement are explicit settings. The native
WooCommerce checkout remains available unless the merchant enables the COD
Scale replacement and the connected store passes readiness checks. -
Where are prices and shipping rates calculated?
-
COD Scale and WooCommerce remain authoritative. Browser-submitted prices are
not trusted when the order is created. -
Does the plugin track visitors by default?
-
No advertising platform is enabled by installing the plugin. Tracking scripts
and events require a merchant-configured integration in COD Scale and respect
the configured consent mode. -
Where can I get support?
-
