Quikr, India’s No. 1 cross category classifieds business, announced an expansion of its Doorstep service to allow consumers across the country to buy and sell mobiles and tablets, electronics and appliances, and home and lifestyle goods across cities.
The company launched Quikr Doorstep last year by integrating digital payments and logistics into C2C transactions, and to date it remains India’s only platform to offer modern, secure and safe C2C transactions across the country.
Since its launch, the Doorstep service has gained significant popularity with transaction volume consistently growing fast. Now with intercity transactions, Quikr users will immediately start experiencing even higher supply and demand across categories ranging from computer accessories, video games and cameras to books, health and beauty products, clothes and fashion accessories plus sofa and television too.
Anurag Saran, Quikr CPO and head of Goods, said: “The intercity dimension takes C2C transactions to a whole new level. Historically, these transactions have been limited by where and when a buyer and seller could meet, exchange products and money.
"In addition to these obvious obstacles, there were other issues of safety, privacy, quality etc. We first addressed these issues by launching our Doorstep service – it is more modern, smarter way for consumers to buy and sell, and it has brought us tremendous growth. Intercity takes this smarter solution and amplifies it exponentially by bringing cross-country supply to buyers and demand to sellers.”
