E-commerce giant Amazon on Monday rolled out its global programme 'Launchpad' in India to provide startups in the country a platform to market, sell and deliver products across the globe.

India is the seventh country where Amazon Launchpad has been made available, and the platform, "tailormade" for startups, is available for a fee of Rs 5,000 a month.

Launchpad is already available in the US, UK, China, Germany, France and Mexico.

Through the Launchpad page startups and entrepreneurs can sell products on a global scale, overcoming general marketplace challenges like requirements of large investments to get noticed and loss of margins in channels, the company said.

Amazon Launchpad will offer startups and small enterprises access to custom pages where sellers can showcase their products through photos and videos, marketing support to help product discovery, and access to Amazon's global customer base.
