Zepto weird (smart) UX

So zepto has a 'Remove' delivery button inside the bill details. This is a very smart way to make money, since this button is situated inside the details part. But on the other hand it feels a bit weird, if I miss opening the details I might have paid 27 rupees more.

What are your thoughts?

How exactly would you have paid 27 more in this situation?

If someone does not click on the detailed view button for bill, you would never see this button to remove delivery fee

Zepto also recently added zepto passes to orders without consenting consumers. Defo dark web design patterns

This is a very unethical dark pattern. Forces users to pay more than what is required. And hiding it inside the pay details is even more dark.

Shame on you Zepto!

When an order value is above INR 199, you folks used to deduct the delivery fees automatically. But now, you have made it as a manual option hidden under layers of UI.

Do you want your users to keep digging your UI to click and avail th...

My 3 cents on the Zepto story as a founder

I have 3 points
