From the moment Prime Minister has announced demonetization of 500 and 1000 rupee notes, the whole country is in the chaos of stop using old currency. Soon after the announce was made shop owners have refused to take those notes. Even e-commerce has made notifications for the users that will be stopping the cash on delivery and restricting the orders to a fixed value.

To come out with a solution to this, Snapdeal has announced wallet on delivery. As the popular digital wallet application free charge is owned by snapdeal so they are giving options to pay using the digital wallet at the time of delivery. The idea is simple - you can use the Snapdeal-owned FreeCharge wallet to pay for items at the time of delivery. This will allow users to pay only when the package is delivered, but still saves Snapdeal the hassle of handling cash orders, which complicate logistics significantly. It will also help customers right now as people will not have to scramble for the new currency notes at this point.

“The launch of Wallet on Delivery is an absolute need of the hour for consumers," says Kunal Bahl, founder and CEO, Snapdeal. "The launch of this new feature by FreeCharge shortly after the announcement of the demonetisation of Rs.500 and Rs.1000 currency notes demonstrates our speed of execution in ensuring consumers’ needs are met in real time."
