If you’re an e-commerce seller in Pakistan and want to offer Cash on Delivery (COD) with one of the fastest-growing and most reliable logistics partners, PostEx is probably already on your radar.

In 2025, PostEx delivers more than 80 million parcels (year-to-date), operates in 650+ cities, runs 250+ warehouses, and has a field force of over 9,000 riders supported by an 2,000+ strong team. Most importantly, 7 out of every 10 COD parcels shipped nationwide go through the PostEx network. That’s massive market dominance and trust.

Opening a COD merchant account with PostEx is straightforward, and the entire process is 100% online.

Here’s the complete step-by-step guide (updated November 2025).

Who Can Open a PostEx COD Account?

There are two categories:

Individual / Sole Proprietor:

You only need a valid CNIC
You must have an active NTN (National Tax Number)

Yes, even individuals need an active NTN in 2025, this is mandatory for all COD merchants because of FBR regulations

Registered Business / Private Limited / Partnership

Active NTN of the company
Sales Tax Registration Number (STRN / Tax ID) if registered with FBR

If you don’t have an NTN yet, get it first from the FBR Iris portal. It doesn’t take long.
