Amazon has partnered with online travel and activities platform Cleartrip to launch a domestic flight booking option, a new service that highlights the e-commerce giant’s interest to take on rivals Google Pay and Paytm.
Customers in India will be able to access the flight booking service via the Amazon Pay page in the Amazon app or Amazon.in website.
The e-commerce giant has also indicated customers will not receive any additional charges should tickets be cancelled, and would only have to foot the individual airline’s cancellation penalty.
This is in addition to what the Amazon website already offers, such as shopping, money transfers, utility bill payments and mobile recharges.
