Checkout mockup: Show UPI first in India (COD last)

Moves UPI to the top of the payment method list at checkout when Shipping country is India.

Why use it

The problem it solves

UPI is how India pays — instant, app-based, everywhere. But if your checkout leads with cards and keeps Cash on Delivery prominent, Indian shoppers scroll for UPI while COD (with its higher RTO risk) stays front and centre. The order works against you on both counts.

Benefits

What you get

Puts UPI — India’s dominant rail — at the top for local shoppers.

Pushes Cash on Delivery to the bottom to nudge prepaid over risky COD.

Applies only to shoppers shipping to India.

No code or theme changes.
