Zomato's Rs.30 Deal Takes a Jab at Rs.20 Lakh Job Fee Controversy

In a surprising twist, Zomato, the popular online food delivery platform, has launched an incredible Black Friday deal for its premium Zomato Gold membership. Unlike a controversial recent job offer, customers can now get a six-month Zomato Gold membership for just Rs.30. This special offer is valid only for this weekend.

No Rs.20 Lakh Fee for Zomato Gold

The offer comes in stark contrast to a job posting made by Zomato’s Managing Director and CEO, Deepinder Goyal, earlier this month. In his post, Goyal advertised a Chief of Staff position, which included an unusual requirement: interested candidates were asked to pay an "opportunity fee" of Rs.20 lakh, with no salary for the first year. The post stirred up a lot of debate on social media. Goyal later clarified that the fee was not required.

Now, in a cheeky response to that controversy, Zomato has launched a humorous advertisement stating, "Update from CEO, no need to pay us Rs.20 lakhs, just pay us Rs.30." The offer allows users to get a six-month Zomato Gold membership, which includes several benefits, for just Rs.30.

Details of the Zomato Gold Offer

The Black Friday offer is available to all Zomato app users. With Zomato Gold, customers get benefits like free delivery on orders over Rs.199 from restaurants within a 7 km radius. Additionally, users can enjoy up to 30% off at more than 20,000 partner restaurants across India. To identify these participating restaurants, customers can look for the gold label on restaurant cards within the app. However, it is important to note that free delivery will not be available at some restaurants that manage their deliveries.

Existing Zomato Gold Members Can Also Benefit

For current Zomato Gold members, subscribing to this special Black Friday offer will extend their membership for an additional six months at no extra cost. If you're not yet a Zomato Gold member, you can purchase the membership for just Rs. 30 this weekend and enjoy all the benefits for six months.

Offer Valid Only This Weekend

This special Black Friday deal is only available for a limited time—just for this weekend. So, food lovers interested in upgrading to Zomato Gold will need to act fast to take advantage of the discounted price.

Zomato’s latest offer brings a humorous twist to the online food delivery space, with a special deal that’s sure to make many customers smile.
