Flipkart Rolls Out INR 3 Platform Fee

Introduction of Platform Fees

Flipkart has introduced a platform fee of INR 3 on its ecommerce platform and INR 5 on its quick commerce service, Flipkart Minutes.

Alignment with Industry Practices

The new fees align Flipkart with quick commerce platforms like Swiggy Instamart, Blinkit, and Zepto, who also charge similar fees.

Exemptions from the Fee

Flipkart Grocery orders and its travel vertical, Cleartrip, are exempt from this platform fee.

Strategic Revenue Boost

The platform fee supports Flipkart’s efforts to increase revenue and profitability, especially as it expands in the quick commerce sector.

Comparison with Competitors

While Flipkart adopts this fee structure, rivals like Amazon and Meesho continue to operate without imposing platform fees.
