Frequently Asked Questions
What input is required?+
Only the vehicle registration number is required to check pending challans.
Does it cover all states?+
The API covers challans issued via the national e-challan system. Coverage may vary by state adoption.
Can I monitor my entire fleet?+
Yes. You can run batch checks across all vehicle registration numbers in your fleet on a daily or weekly schedule.
Is this useful for insurance?+
Yes. Challan history indicates driving behavior risk — insurers use this data for underwriting and premium calculation.
How do I get started?+
Sign up at ekostore.app/eps, verify your identity with your PAN and address details, load your wallet to test the verification APIs live, then integrate and go live.
What is EPS?+
EPS (Eko Platform Services) is the technology arm of Eko, providing the developer tools, AI tools, and APIs that power modern fintech integration.
What are the different ways to integrate with Eko EPS?+
Integrate in whichever way suits your stack: call the REST APIs directly, use our official SDKs (JavaScript and PHP) to skip request-signing boilerplate, or let an AI coding agent build the integration using our MCP server and skills. See the Developers and AI sections for each path.
How does API authentication work?+
Each request carries your static `developer_key` header plus a per-request `secret-key` header — an HMAC-SHA256 signature of the current timestamp, keyed by your access key. The access key itself is never sent over the wire. You receive UAT keys on signup and production keys after KYC.
Is there a sandbox environment for testing?+
Yes. A full sandbox environment is available immediately on signup. You can test your integration end-to-end before going live — no commitment required.
What are the sandbox and production base URLs?+
Sandbox and production share the same paths and differ only by base URL: use https://staging.eko.in/ekoapi/v3 for UAT / Sandbox, and https://api.eko.in/ekoicici/v3 for Production. A common cause of failures is calling the sandbox/staging URL with live credentials (or vice-versa) — make sure the base URL matches the keys you are using.
Do I need to whitelist my server IP?+
Production API access may require your static public (server) IP to be whitelisted. If your calls work from Postman but fail or time out from your own server, share your static public IP with us so we can whitelist it.
What response times can I expect?+
Most verification APIs return in real time with sub-second responses, and 99th-percentile latency stays under two seconds across verification endpoints. Transaction APIs (DMT, AePS, BBPS) respond within seconds.
Can the API handle high volumes?+
Yes. The API is designed to handle large-scale volumes reliably without performance degradation.
How is API usage billed?+
Usage is billed per successful API call with no minimum commitment. Volume-based pricing tiers are available — contact our team for detailed rates.
