COD order cancelled confirmation
Confirms a COD order has been cancelled, either by the buyer or for no confirmation, and explains how to reorder if it was a mistake.
No money was charged. If this was a mistake, reply "Reorder" and we will place it again with the same items and address.
A cancellation notice on the customer's order is utility. A discount to tempt them back would turn it into marketing.
Variables
| Variable | What goes in | Example |
|---|---|---|
| {{1}} | customer name | Lavanya |
| {{2}} | order number | #OC6120 |
| {{3}} | reason | we did not receive a confirmation |
When to use it
Send it whenever a COD order is cancelled, whether the buyer tapped Cancel or did not confirm in time. It closes the loop so nobody waits for a parcel that is not coming. The one-tap reorder recovers genuine buyers who simply missed the confirmation message.
Best time to send. Right after the cancellation, within business hours.

Tips
- Use a short, neutral reason; never imply the customer is a fraud.
- For buyer-initiated cancellations, the reason can simply be "you asked us to cancel it".
Variations
Shorter or warmer versions of the same message.
Order #OC6120 is cancelled, Lavanya. Nothing was charged. Reply REORDER if you still want it.
Hi Lavanya, as requested, we have cancelled your COD order. Thanks for letting us know.
