(pramod shrivastav)
Udaipur : In a pioneering move, Bharti Airtel, today, announced its partnership with
the quick commerce platform, Blinkit, for the delivery of SIM cards to its customers
within ten minutes. A first-of-its-kind service by a telco, the services are now live in 16
cities in the country, with plans to add more cities and towns over a period of time.
This collaboration marks a significant milestone enabling, as it does, customers to
receive SIM cards at their doorstep in a minimal 10 minutes at a nominal
convenience fee of ₹49. Post the delivery of the SIM card, customers can activate
the number using a simple activation process through Aadhaar-based KYC
authentication. Customers will have the option to choose from both postpaid and
prepaid plans or trigger an MNP for porting into the Airtel network. To streamline the
process, customers can access the online link and view the activation video for a
seamless activation experience.
Commenting on the partnership, Siddharth Sharma, CEO – Connected Homes and
Director of Marketing, Bharti Airtel said; “Simplifying customer lives is central to everything
we do at Airtel. Today we are thrilled to partner with Blinkit for 10-minute SIM card delivery
to customers’ homes across 16 cities and in due course of time we plan to expand this
partnership to additional cities.”
Albinder Dhindsa, Founder and CEO of Blinkit, said, “To save customers time and hassle,
we’ve collaborated with Airtel to deliver SIM cards directly to customers in select cities, with
delivery in just 10 minutes. Blinkit takes care of the delivery, while Airtel makes it easy for
customers to complete self-KYC, activate their SIM, and choose between prepaid or postpaid
plans. Customers can also opt for number portability, all at their convenience.”
