KnowSeat connects standing passengers with seated riders deboarding at the next stop — a seamless in-train exchange, coach by coach.
Every day, millions stand packed inside metro coaches with no way to know when a seated passenger is about to deboard. KnowSeat makes that visible — and swappable.
Whether you're standing inside the train or seated and deboarding soon, KnowSeat coordinates the swap.
While standing in the train, see seats from passengers deboarding soon — filtered by your line and coach.
Reserve the seat they'll vacate for 5 Points. Instant confirmation with the exact coach and seat details.
An alert fires when the seated rider is about to stand and deboard — move to their coach in time.
Show your one-time code to the seated rider. Once verified, take their seat mid-ride.
Already seated and deboarding soon? Mark your seat as available with your exit stop.
A standing passenger reserves your seat. You see exactly who's coming to swap in.
Receive 5 Points the moment the in-train swap completes. 1 Point = ₹1 in your wallet.
Use Points for DMRC tickets, NCMC recharge, or transfer straight to your bank via UPI.

KnowSeat is an in-train seat exchange platform for metro commuters. Standing passengers book seats from seated riders who are deboarding at an upcoming stop — mid-ride, coach by coach.
Seated passengers deboarding soon mark their seat as available. Standing passengers book it for 5 Points. Both get notified, and the swap happens inside the train as the seated rider stands to leave.
When a standing passenger claims a seat, both parties get a one-time verification code. The seated rider confirms the code before standing up — ensuring a safe, intentional handoff inside the train.
Each seat swap costs 5 Points. 1 Point equals ₹1. You can earn Points by offering your seat when you're deboarding.
Points are stored in your KnowSeat Wallet. Use them for DMRC metro tickets, NCMC recharge, or transfer to your bank via UPI. Standard gateway fees and GST (~₹6 per transaction) apply on cashouts.
KnowSeat currently supports all Delhi Metro lines. We're expanding to Mumbai, Bangalore, and international metros in 2026.
