Zomato, a popular online food delivery platform in India, has introduced a new feature called “Book Now, Sell Anytime.”
This marks Zomato’s entry into the Indian ticketing market, allowing users to book tickets for events in advance through the app.
How the Feature Works
With the “Book Now, Sell Anytime” feature, users can easily book tickets for events as soon as they go live on the Zomato app.
If a user’s plans change, they can list their ticket on the app at their chosen price.
When another customer buys the listed ticket, the original ticket will be canceled, and a new one will be issued to the buyer.
The seller will receive the full amount they set when listing the ticket.
Rules to Prevent Ticket Scalping
To prevent the black market and high prices, Zomato has put in place certain rules. A customer can only purchase up to 10 tickets in one category.
The company will closely monitor the platform to ensure fair use of this feature. Each event will have a fixed price range, which may vary depending on the event.
This new feature is designed to benefit many users and could spark competition in the ticketing platform market.
