Questions, answered
Is BudgetBasket free?
Yes. We never charge you and never add anything to your bill. You order on Blinkit, Zepto or Instamart exactly as you do today.
Are delivery and handling fees included?
Yes, in the basket comparison. We add each app’s delivery, small-cart, handling and GST so the total is close to what you pay at checkout. Peak-time surge fees vary minute to minute, so we leave those out and say so.
Why does a price show a dash (—)?
A dash means that app does not sell the same product at your pincode right now. We never show a guessed price, and a missing product is never counted as ₹0.
How accurate are the prices?
They are the latest prices each app lists for your pincode, refreshed every few minutes. Apps change prices often, so always confirm the final amount in the app before you pay.
How do you calculate my savings?
When you order from the cheapest app, we compare its total with the next cheapest app that has your whole basket. We use the smaller gap, not the biggest one, so the number never flatters us.
Do I need an account?
No. You can search and compare as a guest. Signing in with your phone keeps your savings, lists and pincode across devices.
Which cities do you cover?
Every pincode Blinkit, Zepto or Instamart deliver to. Coverage is richest in big metros; in smaller towns some products may be missing on some apps, and we label that clearly.
