In every business trust of customers is the main wealth of the enterprise. A clear and well planned payment and refund policy will help you in winning the trust of your customers. You have to make a clear strategy that will you offer either cash on delivery option, pre-payment option through your website or equally monthly installment option or all. You have to create different policy according to needs and market bias in your industry for each and every product. You have to clearly inform your customer about refund policy on particular products before purchasing. And be sure that you have to strictly follow your policy in every condition but at last you must have remembered that you are here for your customers.

When you sale product online then the responsibility of its safe delivery is yours. You have to create a shipping method for your company and decide their charges. Your shipping and delivery policy may be different for different products and different areas. Like you can make policy that if the cost of product is more than INR500 then delivery charge is free. It is not mandatory that you offer free delivery. You can create your own policy according to your benefit and market strategy.
