<![CDATA[The growth of electronic commerce (e-commerce) has facilitated buying and selling transactions, notably through the Cash On Delivery (COD) payment method. However, in practice, instances of consumers cancelling COD transactions still occur, causing financial losses for business operators and delivery services, as well as potentially leading to disputes. This situation reveals an imbalance in the understanding of the rights and obligations of consumers and business operators, as well as the dispute resolution mechanisms applicable to COD transaction cancellations. This study aims to analyze the resolution of disputes arising from consumers cancelling COD orders in Pontianak City and to assess its alignment with consumer protection laws. The study employs a normative legal research method with a normative-analytical approach. Data was gathered through literature reviews and document analysis—examining legislation, legal doctrine, and literature on disputes—and analyzed qualitatively. The findings indicate that cancelling a COD transaction without a valid reason, after the business operator has fulfilled its obligations, can essentially be classified as a breach of contract. Dispute resolution can be pursued through negotiation, complaints filed with e-commerce platforms, the Consumer Dispute Resolution Agency (BPSK), or the courts. The study concludes that resolving disputes over COD cancellations requires balancing the rights and obligations of consumers and business operators through a tiered resolution mechanism.
