As a Flipkart seller, we prioritise prompt payments. Your payments are released after your product is dispatched, ensuring a fast turnaround time.
Our payment cycle initiates when your product is picked up, and you can expect to receive your payment in as fast as 7* days. Payments are securely transferred directly to your registered bank account, with Flipkart fees deducted accordingly.
The fees charged by Flipkart are indeed dependent upon the type of fulfilment option you choose. The fulfilment options include:

where you handle packaging and shipping
The fees associated with each option may vary to accommodate the different services provided. It is important to review and understand the fee structure for your chosen fulfilment option to effectively manage your costs and maximise your profitability as a seller on Flipkart.
At Flipkart, the fees charged vary based on the category of products you sell, the shipping method you choose, and the selling price of your products. There are four types of fees applicable:
The fixed fee, also known as the closing fee, is implemented on the Flipkart platform to enhance the overall experience for both customers and sellers. This fee is utilised to drive product innovations, improve the Flipkart platform, and create additional growth opportunities for sellers. By implementing the fixed fee, Flipkart aims to continuously enhance its services and provide a better ecosystem for sellers to thrive and expand their businesses.

The Collection fee is determined based on the type of payment chosen by the customer, whether it's prepaid (e.g., UPI, Netbanking) or Cash on Delivery (COD).
For prepaid orders, a fee is charged to cover the payment gateway associated with the transaction. On the other hand, for Cash on Delivery, which is a postpaid mode of payment collection, a fee is charged to facilitate the cash collection service.
The collection fee is calculated based on the final selling price of the product.

The shipping fee is calculated based on the actual weight of the product or the volumetric weight, whichever is higher. Volumetric weight accounts for items that are lightweight but occupy a significant amount of shipping space. This approach ensures fair and accurate shipping charges are applied, taking into consideration the actual or volumetric weight of the products being shipped.
