Zomato Gold subscription to be ‘back soon’, CEO Deepinder Goyal confirms on Twitter

Zomato Gold will make a comeback in 2023 as per CEO Deepinder Goyal’s latest tweet. In a post, Goyal shared a Zomato Gold Gif with the caption ‘Back Soon.’ Zomato users have been waiting for the Foodtech giant to revive its membership programme for quite a while now and the tweet from Goyal sure got the users excited.

With Zomato Gold membership, users were able to avail extra benefits such as free delivery, additional discounts, free food and beverages, and several others. The Zomato Gold membership programme was launched in 2017 and in 2020, the programme was upgraded to Zomato Pro.

In the following year, the company also launched a Zomato Pro Plus membership programme with even more benefits, however India’s largest food delivery company stopped onboarding new members and merchant partners to 'Pro' and 'Pro Plus' programmes from August. 

In a message to users trying to renew their expired Pro membership, Zomato said: “Thank you for being a part of the Zomato Pro program. The membership is unavailable for renewal as we are working on a new and better experience for you. We request you to check the Zomato app to stay updated on the latest offerings.”
