After Amazon and Flipkart, ShopClues stops cash-on-delivery mode

After Amazon and Flipkart, now e-commerce platform Shopclues has canceled its cash-on-delivery mode of payment for all essential items, urging customers to pay online for their purchases. According to the company’s official release, they are doing it to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus through people-to-people contact.

ShopClues has claimed that it has stepped up its level of hygiene and sanitation at the warehouses where the goods are processed and packaged before being delivered. ShopClues stated that it is providing OTP-based, real-time deliveries with the delivery agent dropping off the package at the doorstep of the customer with no contact.
