However, the service, unlike most loyalty programmess, is not free. The company has already started also inviting customers to submit their email IDs for this service. Flipkart will randomly select 75,000 customers who will be able to avail of the Flipkart First service free of cost for three months. However, there is no clue at the time as to how much will they be asked to pay afterwards by the online marketplace.

We have a pulse on the Indian market and consumer trends. Today, the Indian customer is maturing, looking at value over cost – and services like these will push the ecosystem to another level” Says Binny Bansal, Co-founder and COO.
