    Step-by-Step Zepto Registration Process

    1

    Access the Zepto Partner Portal

    Navigate to Zepto's official partner/vendor registration page. Click 'Register as Brand/Supplier' and create your account.

    2

    Fill Business Information

    Enter legal entity name, GST number, registered address, primary contact person name, email, and mobile number.

    3

    Select Product Categories

    Choose your primary and secondary categories (grocery, personal care, baby, health, etc.). This determines commission rates and dark store placement.

    4

    Upload Documents

    Upload all mandatory documents — GST certificate, FSSAI license, PAN, cancelled cheque, and brand authorization if applicable.

    5

    Submit Product Catalog

    Add each SKU with: product name, EAN barcode, MRP, selling price, net weight, shelf life, high-res images, and detailed description.

    6

    Verification & Review

    Zepto's onboarding team reviews your application (5–10 business days). They may request clarifications or additional certifications.

    7

    Agreement & Pricing Finalization

    Sign the vendor agreement. Finalize commission rates, payment terms (typically T+7 to T+15), and city-wise dark store allocation.

    8

    Inventory Inwarding

    Ship stock to assigned dark stores per Zepto's inwarding guidelines. Products undergo quality inspection before going live.

    9

    Go Live on Zepto

    Once inventory passes QC, your products appear on the Zepto app. Monitor orders via the seller dashboard and start advertising.

    Common Rejection Reasons & How to Fix Them

    ❌ GST Number Mismatch
    ✅ Fix: Ensure GSTIN matches the business name and address on all submitted documents.
    ❌ Expired or Invalid FSSAI
    ✅ Fix: Renew FSSAI before applying. Central FSSAI is preferred for multi-state operations.
    ❌ Low-Quality Product Images
    ✅ Fix: Use minimum 1000×1000px white-background images. Show all pack sides, nutritional info, and MRP.
    ❌ Missing EAN Barcodes
    ✅ Fix: Register for GS1 India barcodes. Each SKU needs a unique EAN code printed on packaging.
    ❌ Incomplete Product Information
    ✅ Fix: Fill every field: shelf life, net weight, ingredients, manufacturer details. Missing data delays approval.
    ❌ Category Not Open for New Sellers
    ✅ Fix: Some categories are invitation-only. Work with an onboarding agency to access restricted categories.
