One can either search for any specific dish or choose any specific partner to browse through dishes and schedule deliveries by paying online or use cash on delivery. Strangely, we noticed that Google has partnered with TimesofMoney's DirecPay for online payments on Areo rather than using its own payment solution.
Google India's vertical commerce initiatives
It's worth noting that this is not the first time Google India has enabled transactions in verticals - it had earlier launched hotel bookings via Google hotel finder and flight bookings via Google Flights in India a few years back.
However, what's different with Areo is that Google is completing the transaction on the behalf of the merchant on the app rather than taking them to the merchant's website on Hotel finder or Google Flights.
