Indonesia, with a population of around 284.44 million people, has a GDP of approximately 1.43 trillion making it the 17th largest economy in the world. The official currency of Indonesia is the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR)
Southeast Asia's largest economy is driven by domestic consumption, services, and the export of commodities like palm oil, coal, and natural gas. It is a member of ASEAN and APEC, with China, the US, and Japan as its top trading partners.
The Indonesian digital payment market is led by digital wallets like GoPay and OVO, which are integrated into the "super-apps" Gojek and Grab and are used for everything from ride-hailing to QR payments. Bank transfers via "Virtual Accounts," where a unique account number is generated for each transaction, are a very common e-commerce payment method. Despite this, physical cash, the Rupiah, is still the primary payment method for the majority of the population, especially outside major cities.
