Flipkart accepts major Indian credit cards across networks like Visa, Mastercard, RuPay, and American Express. Most cards from leading banks support regular payments and no-cost EMI options, subject to eligibility and ongoing offers.

Saving a card is convenient, but staying secure is non-negotiable. Follow these five golden rules to protect your digital wallet on Flipkart:

• Fortify Your Access: Use a unique, complex password for your Flipkart account and must enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). This ensures that even if someone knows your password, they can't access your saved cards.
• Perform a Digital Cleanup: Periodically audit your ‘My Cards’ section. Remove any expired or rarely used plastic to reduce your digital footprint.
• Stay Private: Never select ‘Save Card’ when shopping from a public computer, office desktop, or a friend’s phone. Keep your financial data on devices you own.
• Monitor Your Money: Set up instant SMS/email alerts for your bank account. Regularly cross-reference your bank statements with your Flipkart ‘Order History’ to spot discrepancies early.
• Take Control of Auto-Save: If you prefer manual control, head to Account Settings to disable the ‘Auto-save new cards’ feature. This ensures only specific cards you choose stay on the platform.
