The integration with the Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) makes Delhi Metro the first major urban transit system in India to embrace this platform.

Since the November 2024 soft launch, the service has fully expanded, allowing users to purchase tickets via over 10 widely used applications. This includes EaseMyTrip, NammaYatri, and a Telegram-based bot by Miles & Kilometres.

Delhi Metro Brings Seamless Access Through ONDC Integration

This innovation eliminates the need to download a separate metro app. Instead, commuters can complete their journeys using apps they already use for navigation and travel planning.

For example, a traveler arriving in Delhi via Redbus from Jaipur can instantly book a connecting metro ride from ISBT Kashmere Gate without switching platforms.

Local commuters benefit as well. A rider might use Rapido for a bike trip to the nearest station, continue by metro, and finish their journey with another ride—all managed within one app.

Delhi Metro Ticketing Now Embedded in Everyday Travel Tools

This integration improves accessibility and streamlines the travel experience. It reflects broader digital habits where users expect mobility and transit options to be unified under one interface.

SequelString AI (SAI), the technology provider behind the launch, ensures that Delhi Metro’s ticketing is reliably embedded in mobility, travel, and messaging platforms.

By eliminating app barriers and placing tickets within reach of digital ecosystems, Delhi Metro has set a new standard for commuter convenience and transit modernization in India’s capital.
