Amazon India recently unveiled the expansion of its 10-minute delivery service, Amazon Now, to a hundred micro-fulfillment centres that cover most of Bangalore and parts of Delhi and Mumbai. In the following months, the service will expand to full city coverage.

This expansion was put into reality, following the 25 percent monthly growth in Bengaluru and Delhi. With this service, you could purchase thousands of everyday essentials, from groceries and personal care items to digital accessories and festive supplies, for rapid delivery. Amazon will add more by the end of this year.
Amazon India’s Samir Kumar, the deputy and country manager, stated, “We launched Amazon Now in Bengaluru earlier this year, delivering essentials in just 10 minutes. The response has exceeded our most optimistic expectations, with daily orders growing at 25 percent month over month and Prime members tripling their shopping frequency after they begin using Amazon Now.”
Kumar added that through this success, the company will expand to more than 100 micro-fulfillment centers and look at adding hundreds more across Bengaluru, Delhi, and Mumbai.
With this service expansion’s robust operations infrastructure, Amazon is “enabling faster and more convenient shopping across a vast selection” as the globe heads to the festival season, delivering the essentials you need in just within minutes, groceries, and over 30,000 items within hours, and millions more the same or next day.
Highlighting the Challenges Page on your Amazon Flex dashboard
Tinker around your Amazon Flex dashboard, and there are lots of things to do. One of them is the Challenges Page, which allows you to maximize your earnings with promos, celebrating your achievements via the Challenges page in Your Dashboard.
This page likewise highlights the available promotions that could help you earn more by completing specific delivery goals within set timeframes. These promos are hyper-personalized and offered to delivery partners depending on their location and demand.
Once a promo becomes available to you, you could see it and be able to track your progress under Challenges on your dashboard.
This page also showcases your achievement badges, which celebrate your milestones and accomplishments, including customer thank-you’s you received for delivery smiles. Special badges could also be earned for joining key events like Prime Big Deal Days. Each new achievement appears automatically on your Dashboard.
“To explore your current and past challenges, simply visit Your Dashboard and select ‘See all challenges.’ The ‘Active’ tab displays ongoing promotions and available achievements, while the ‘History’ tab lets you look back at your accomplishments. Once you complete a promotion, you’ll receive your additional earnings within two weeks,” stated Amazon. “Check Your Dashboard in the Amazon Flex app regularly to discover new earnings opportunities and track your achievement badges as you continue delivering smiles to Amazon customers.”
