Flipkart Introduces Rs 3 Platform Fee on Orders In a recent move, Flipkart has quietly started implementing a Rs 3 platform fee on all orders. This development follows similar steps taken by food delivery giants Zomato and Swiggy, who have also introduced platform fees on their services. The Rs 3 charge is aimed at enhancing the overall customer experience by supporting platform maintenance and development. The new fee is applicable across all categories and is expected to help Flipkart sustain its services while continuing to innovate and provide value to its customers. This decision by Flipkart marks a significant shift in the e-commerce landscape, reflecting the broader trend of major online platforms seeking additional revenue streams to offset rising operational costs.
