ZEPTO - Review / Experience
1. INFLATED MRPs : Yes -- for one product lets say Jeera - zepto has got many brands .. Most of them are inflated MRPs. I have devised a method to filter and purchase products from zepto - only if is 50% or more discount. With this - I get the product for its near - exact value compared to market value.

2. PERIODIC DISCOUNTS -- Zepto periodically comes with discounts on grocery products - which have expiry date close to 2-3 months .. Specially their own brand grocery product - Brand name - "Good daily".
3. SUPPORT: I have not encountered problems with zepto - complaints raised on twitter DM - gets solved in a day or two. Though their customer care are a bit slow.
4. PROMOTIONAL CREDITS: Zepto periodically credits money in zepto wallet 40, 50, 100 - which has an expiry of 1-3 days random.
5. Zepto SUPERSAVER : Recently zepto has come up with - 2 modes to order to cater customer with higher amount orders. Min Order : 999rs .. You will approximately save - 80-100 rs on 1000 rs order - purchase value of a product on supersaver mode - is 5-10% discounted.
6. Zepto PASS : With zepto Pass you get free delivery + 5-10% additional discount on orders above 299
NOTE: i use zepto only for for small orders. No bulk orders

I have been using Swiggy, BB and Zepto for 4 years.
All of them use similar strategies.
Usually the packed products from various brands which are actually available at MRP at local store, are available at MRP or lesser price. They cannot inflate prices of same.
In case of loose products, it's like general sabji market. You will find some products cheaper some other vendor and expensive at some other.
But it hardly makes any difference.
On the other hand we get convenience of these products getting delivered at our home. Ofcourse you will have to pay a little for that.
Plus there are these card discounts
How to filter items with more than 50% discount on zepto ?😓
I only order through zepto when they credit my wallet.
There is reward for not shopping and no reward for shopping regularly.
The problem with zepto is either super high discounts including free zepto cash or inflated pricings along with cherry on top surge fee. Instant orders mostly settle around Rs.100-200 because that is the normally a consumer spend when out to buy for small instant shopping so i take is as 10%handling fee.
Mujhe to app ui hi smjh nhi ata
Kal parso pehli baar order kra tha ghee offer tha tha shyd
Zepto Pass too come at discounted rates at times. If not used for a month they will provide a month pass for 1 ₹, else they charge ₹19 or ₹ 39.
We also get discounts on different credit cards if payment is made through specific bank credit cards.
The most absurd is the surge fee and busy message when ordering is not allowed for a time period.
Try always checking with different mobile number the prices are differ from one mobile phone a different price and from another mobile phone a different price so the prices are not constant it differs on how you order and what is your frequent items are getting delivered
I agree with all the complaints. One more important disadvantage missed- no option to cancel orders. Also, you can't reach out to any customer service official.
How to filter or sort products from low to high in zepto as i didn't find any where in UI ? If we have zepto pass we still need to buy min 99 to get free delivery ? @Mayur_Pune
I recently got to know about a weird practice Zepto has recently started.
I wasn't in Pune for a few months, so, hadn't used Zepto for a while. Obviously they lure users by crediting Zepto cash so that the user starts ordering again. I wasn't able to use Rs. 125 worth Zepto Cash and when I contacted their support on X, I got to know that the Zepto Cash is unusable because I didn't use Zepto for 5-6 months and that I need to place an order first, then the 125 Zepto Cash can be used on the next order.
I conveyed to their support team that this is a very weird dark pattern from Zepto and the fact that you credited 125 Zepto Cash to bring me back, after hearing this, I'll be long gone. I asked them to not spam me with SMSes regarding this credit of Zepto Cash if it can't be used.
Apparently, they have a very weird policy to restrict users from using zepto cash..
thanks for bringing this to notice.
