In an era where live tracking maps have become synonymous with modern delivery apps, Zepto, the 10-minute grocery delivery giant, has taken a bold step in a different direction. By not providing a tracking map in its app, Zepto has not only streamlined its user experience but also reaped substantial savings in terms of money, time, and engineering effort. Hereโ€™s how this counterintuitive decision is a masterstroke in business efficiency Reduced Infrastructure Costs : Live tracking maps rely on sophisticated integrations with mapping APIs, such as Google Maps or Mapbox, which can cost up to $0.05 per transaction.
