Why Romania Is the #1 COD Market in Eastern Europe
Romania offers a rare combination: high order volume, strong COD conversion rates, and relatively low competition compared to Western European markets. With 19 million inhabitants and 58-65% of e-commerce paid via COD, it is the premier expansion target for 2026.
