Net Revenue Dada Now Services Sales of goods Subtotal JDDJ Services note ( 1 ) Total Note : For the three months ended September 30 , 2020 2021 ( RMB in thousands ) 704,961 14,034 718,995 582,507 1,301,502 592,508 21,781 614,289 1,072,490 1,686,779 ( 1 ) Includes net revenues from commission fee , and advertising and marketing services of RMB297,382 for the three months ended September 30 , 2020 and RMB643,704 for the three months ended September 30 , 2021 ; Fulfillment services and others of RMB285,125 and RMB428,786 for the three months ended September 30 , 2020 and 2021 , respectively . Net revenues generated from Dada Now were RMB614.3 million . The difference as compared to that of the third quarter of 2020 is mainly due to the fact that effective from April 2021 , the cost of riders for last - mile delivery services has been directly paid through third - party companies instead of through the Company . Thus the Company no longer recognizes rider - related revenue and rider - related costs in the income statement for the last - mile delivery services . Aligning the revenue of Dada Now last - mile delivery services to a comparable basis , revenue growth from Dada Now would have been 90.5 % year over year 1 , mainly driven by the increases in order volume of intra - city delivery service to chain merchants . Net revenues generated from JDDJ were RMB1,072.5 million . The difference as compared to that of the third quarter of 2020 is mainly due to the increase in GMV from the same quarter last year , which was driven by increases in the number of active consumers and average order size . The increase in online marketing services revenue as a result of the increasing promotional activities launched by brand owners also constituted an increment of the net revenues generated from JDDJ . Total costs and expenses were RMB2,282.3 million , compared with RMB1,758.1 million in the same quarter of 2020 .
