Expressing Flipkart’s commitment to enhancing the commerce experience, Dheeraj Aneja, Senior Vice President – Fintech and Payments Group at Flipkart, emphasized, “At Flipkart, we are committed to delivering the best-in-class commerce experience to customers by offering safe and convenient payment options along with a wide array of rewards and benefits such as Supercoins, Brand Vouchers, and others.

In addition to facilitating transactions within the Flipkart ecosystem, Flipkart UPI extends its utility beyond the marketplace, enabling users to make payments by scanning QR codes. Since its separation from PhonePe in 2022, Flipkart has been actively developing its standalone UPI platform.

The UPI ID creation on Flipkart is open to users with accounts in any bank, without any associated charges. However, currently available exclusively for Android users, the feature is anticipated to roll out for iPhone users in the imminent future.
