Meet Beam
We created Beam to help stakeholders of the retail value chain connect with their customers in a more effective manner. Beam is a global payments acceptance platform built for 21st century commerce harnessing the power of mobile phones and utilising the reach of the internet. Today, Beam’s technical network reach exceeds 400,000 stores globally with over 5,000 live stores in three continents. Using blockchain, Beam plans to unlock the potential data goldmine within retail and scale emerging technology capabilities on its platform for physical stores.
Fast Facts
We aim to overturn the status quo in the retail value chain and pave the way for a brave new future. Our ambition is matched by our domain expertise, ability and experience.
The Opportunity
We carry the power of the internet in our pockets and use it daily when hailing a taxi or listening to music over the cloud. Now with the emergence of blockchain, we can solve problems that were once deemed impossible. Namely, the problem of trust. One industry that struggles with this need for trust, is the retail value chain; currently unable to take advantage of the data goldmine it’s sitting on. Each party is holding onto its valuable piece of the puzzle, rendering it impossible to create a clear overall picture of behaviour that drives supply and demand.
The Solution
The Beam Platform utilises the power of internet, mobile phones and blockchain to connect all stakeholders of the retail value chain. By making use of a permissioned protocol that protects customers’ privacy, the platform generates behavioural insights which were not possible before. It’s further strengthened through a distributed network of participants who are incentivised to solve problems for the retail value chain in the areas of procurement, planning, pricing, selling, discounting, customer acquisition and retention.
Our difference
The blockchain startup space is brimming with great ideas, many of which have the potential to be highly disruptive and innovative. Our difference is that we have a proven track record building the Beam Platform since 2013. More importantly, we speak in a language that the retail value chain understands ranging from mum and dad stores to enterprise retailers such as Carrefour, Costa Coffee, ALDO, Tommy Hilfiger and many more.
