Beckn protocol
What is it?

Beckn is a universal resource discovery and transaction protocol that enables the creation of decentralized and interoperable networks. It facilitates the integration of platforms, organizations, and governments, promoting efficient economic and digital exchange in diverse sectors such as mobility, digital commerce, and healthcare. As a service provider, you can set your own commercial terms, giving you greater control. As a consumer, you have access to what you need without relying on a single platform, enjoying greater freedom in your choices and transactions.

What problems does it solve?

The Beckn protocol solves the problem of digital fragmentation by enabling the creation of integrated and decentralized digital networks. It facilitates direct interaction between consumers and service providers, eliminating intermediaries and promoting interoperability in sectors such as mobility, digital commerce, energy, healthcare, and more, thereby improving efficiency and accessibility.

How does the tool work?

Beckn is a discovery and transaction protocol that enables the creation of open, decentralized, and interoperable digital networks. It facilitates direct interaction between consumers and service providers, eliminating intermediaries and promoting flexibility and control in diverse sectors such as mobility, digital commerce, energy, and healthcare.

Open standards

The tool uses open standards based on the Beckn protocol, which enables interoperability and the creation of decentralized digital networks. This protocol is adaptable to various sectors, such as mobility, digital commerce, and healthcare, facilitating integration and economic and digital exchange between different platforms and organizations.
