If you’re up for online shopping in India, you have definitely heard about Flipkart. In 2017 the company also launched a global program to allow its retailers to sell to customers globally in partnership with eBay. It didn’t work out, yet the plans for global sales may still come true for this prosperous startup, especially since its current partnership with Walmart.

Benefits

Flipkart may not be a new service (it has operated since 2007) but it still provides great cashback on most of its categories and huge discounts.

Loyal customers can be enrolled to Flipkart Plus, the annual membership program to receive exclusive benefits and rewards. Some of them are:

  • free delivery on a wide range of products;
  • early access to sale products prior to the general sell-out time;
  • Plus coins earned by shopping can be spent on special offers;

It offers flexible payment options:

  • Flipkart No Cost EMI – a monthly installment-based payment program enabled by Bajaj Finserv Card. Equated Monthly Installments (EMI) come without the additional burden of processing fees, down-payments and monthly interest. The loan term ranges from 3 to 12 months. Based on the term of payment and cost of the product, an agreed amount is deducted every month. It is available for a select set of pricey Brands and Products including Apple, LG, Vu, Panasonic, and InFocus.
  • Debit Card EMI – the scheme works in partnership with the top banks in India. It provides credit accessibility to a selected group of customers who are pre-approved by the bank partners and don’t own a credit card. To find out whether you’re eligible for the service, send an SMS with DCEMI to 57575 and find out your status. The terms and interest on the offer depend on the partnering bank.
  • Flipkart Pay Later – available to loyal customers. If you are one of the eligible customers, you will find that you have access to a shopping limit and this payment option when you shop from select sellers on Flipkart. You can order the product without spending extra time on the checkout process, receive the product, try it out and then make the cashless one-click payment. By default, the payment due date is the 10th of the next month. The sum needs to be paid in full, it’s not an installment program. You’ll get an instant refund if you cancel your order or return a product.
  • Cash-on-Delivery – though you order online, there’s no reason to give up a purchase if your debit/credit card balance runs low. You can always pay with cash at the time of the product delivery.
  • Flipkart Assured Buyback Guarantee – if you decide to buy a new smartphone, Flipkart provides an assurance to purchase your current smartphone at a pre-fixed amount. The discounted rate is available for your new smartphone only if its price exceeds the cost of your current device. You’ll get an extra discount using Phone health-check with exchange, if the phone health is good.

The quality is assured by Flipkart Assured – an inclusive customer-focused program. Customers are guaranteed high quality and faster delivery on all products bearing the “Flipkart Assured” badge. This badge identifies high-quality products from the best platform’s sellers that have passed six rigorous quality checks. In addition, Flipkart Assured products at a certain price point are shipped free of charge.

The “Flipkart Global” program aims to promote the “Billion” brand of original products manufactured in India, catering them to non-resident Indians as well as the fans of Indian culture. Some of the key products are saris, jewelry, handicrafts, and accessories.
