Flipkart unveils Its own UPI platform
In an ambitious move, Flipkart has stepped into the digital payments arena by launching its own Unified Payments Interface (UPI) service, dubbed Flipkart UPI.
This innovative platform, created in partnership with Axis Bank, is set to revolutionize how over 50 crore users and 14 lakh sellers engage with the e-commerce giant.
Initially available to Android users, Flipkart UPI underscores the company’s effort to streamline transactions on its ecosystem, making a significant leap towards financial inclusivity.
Flipkart UPI aims to significantly reduce the platform’s reliance on external UPI applications like Paytm, PhonePe, Google Pay, and Amazon Pay.
By integrating a seamless payment system within its environment, Flipkart enhances user experience. In addition, it also fortifies its infrastructure against the backdrop of India’s rapidly evolving digital payment landscape.
Dheeraj Aneja, Senior Vice President at Flipkart, highlighted the dual benefits of convenience and cost-effectiveness that Flipkart UPI brings to the table.
This commitment extends across the entire spectrum of Flipkart’s services. These include Myntra, Flipkart Wholesale, Flipkart Health+, and Cleartrip. It ensures a cohesive and integrated shopping and payment experience.
With Flipkart UPI, users can effortlessly set up their UPI handle within the Flipkart app, facilitating marketplace transactions. Besides, it also enables payments to merchants and bill settlements without the need to switch between apps.
This in-house development is poised to enrich the customer experience with added layers of convenience and security.
Moreover, Flipkart’s venture into the UPI ecosystem is complemented by a suite of rewards and benefits, promising a rewarding shopping experience. Some of them are Supercoins, Brand Vouchers, and more.
Flipkart’s strategic move to launch its UPI service reflects a broader vision of embedding financial services within its e-commerce platform, thereby setting a new benchmark in India’s digital payment sector.
With this initiative, Flipkart not only aims to simplify payments for its vast user base but also to capture a significant share of the digital transactions market, reinforcing its position as a leading player in India’s e-commerce landscape.
