Word origin

到付 (dàofù, "cash on delivery") combines 到 (dào, "arrive") + 付 (fù, "pay"), so its literal structure places payment at arrival.

Usage tips

  • A delivery label with this term means the recipient may need to pay the shipping fee at the door, so the seller's listing should be checked for the exact charge.
