Indonesia Cards & Payments Market Report
- Published Date: September 2022
CARDS & PAYMENTS MARKET IN INDONESIA
This report from Argus Advisory Services gives a comprehensive overview of the consumer banking, cards and payments market in Indonesia, with clearsighted commentary backed by historic and forecast data.
The fourth-most populous nation globally, Indonesia's large number of unbanked citizens, together with ever-deepening mobile penetration, is opening up a massive opportunity for payments with e-money issuers, in particular, enjoying healthy revenues.
The Indonesian authorities' drive for cross-border linkage too multiplies the potential for new entrants to take a savvy approach that is mindful of market realities.

INDONESIA COUNTRY REPORT | KEY FACTS
- Indonesia is one of the fastest-growing payments markets in the world, with its large population rapidly embracing digital transactions. Mobile looks set to dominate as a result.
- There are 70 licensed issuers that leverage e-money, of which 51 are not banks.
- National QR code standard QRIS, launched in 2020, is growing fast.
- Debit card ownership has grown strongly, but, with the average adult making just three debit-card purchases in 2021, usage for payments remains low.
- The Indonesian credit cards market has failed to ignite; card penetration is just 8% and has failed to grow since 2016.
- Credit card transactions improved slightly during 2021, even though they have yet to recover from pre-pandemic levels.
- The total value of e-commerce was $28 billion in 2021, 50% higher than the previous year.
- Argus Advisory Research expects that the value of e-money and QRIS transactions will exceed purchase volume on credit and debit cards during 2023.
- Domestic card scheme NPG, created in 2017, has simplified transaction switching and ended the practice of merchants maintaining multiple POS terminals.
- In terms of total credit-card POS transactions, the leading pair of bank acquirers have a market share of 41 and 31%, respectively.
