- Abstract
COD transactions involving marketplaces, sellers and buyers are connected with other parties, namely couriers and goods delivery service companies, which are not found in conventional buying and selling transactions. The involvement of couriers in the Cash On Delivery transaction process is important to the successful completion of the transaction. The lack of regulations and protocols mandating delivery service companies and e-commerce parties has led to a dearth of explicit directives and frameworks for risk management and the implementation of mitigation systems to safeguard couriers. Consequently, when the company introduced the Cash on Delivery (COD) system, it was not accompanied by a comprehensive assessment of potential issues that may arise. This article aims to investigate the extent to which the Oversight Agency fulfills its role in overseeing the Courier in Cash on Delivery (COD) transactions, as well as the rules implemented by the Government to ensure the safeguarding of couriers involved in such transactions. This journal uses a qualitative descriptive research method. Until now, there has been no sales monitoring through e-commerce and the Internet. Currently, the regulation of the Cash on Delivery (COD) mechanism by marketplace organizers lacks legal enforceability, as it solely functions as a technical guideline. Consequently, it fails to offer adequate protection for couriers and does not hold accountable those who engage in violations.
