The fastest-growing dropshipping stores in 2025 all have one thing in common: They don’t make customers pay upfront.
Instead, they use the Try Before You Pay (TBYB) modelβwhere the product is shipped first, and the customer pays only after receiving and approving it. This model removes friction, boosts trust, and skyrockets conversions (especially in COD-heavy regions like Spain, Italy, and LATAM).
However, not all products work for TBYB. Some are too expensive to risk shipping. Others don’t deliver immediate “wow” moments.
So here’s your cheat code:
π§ The best TBYB products are low-cost, highly visual, and instantly solve a real, simple problem.
