About Zomato Pro membership
Zomato Pro members used to get additional benefits across a wide selection of restaurants ¡ª from fine dining hotspots to legendary restaurants, cafes, bars as well as quick-service restaurants.
Zomato Pro members in India used to get access to exclusive delivery offers, which was over and above any deals available to other Zomato users. Pro members will also get priority delivery on Zomato.
This means that any order placed by a Pro member will jump to the front of the real-time queue when we look for a Zomato Valet to deliver your order. This will lead to your orders getting delivered 15-20% faster (on an average) than what you experience right now during peak dinner times.
Zomato Pro also had a money-back guarantee ¡ª if you don¡¯t save 2x the subscription fee of Zomato Pro within the subscription period Zomato would auto-refund your subscription fee at the end of the year.
