First, the retailer launched "Flipkart Pay Later," a credit service that lets shoppers defer payment for up to 30 days, split purchases into three installments, or opt for EMI plans of three to twelve months. The product is backed by a partnership with PayU Finance and is being rolled out across Flipkart’s main site, Myntra and Flipkart Minutes ahead of the company’s Freedom Sale. On the same day, Flipkart revealed a partnership with Netflix that gives Flipkart Plus members a complimentary 30‑day Netflix Mobile Plan plan each month.
