Indonesia Payments Industry Report: User Size and Growth Rate Analysis

I. Indonesia Payment Market Overview and Development Background

Indonesia, the largest economy in Southeast Asia, has seen explosive growth in its payments industry in recent years. According to the latest data, Indonesia's digital payments market has reached US$48 billion in 2023 and is expected to surpass the US$80 billion mark by 2025. This rapid growth is mainly due to several key factors:

Firstly, the large population base provides a broad user base for the payment industry. With a population of over 270 million, Indonesia is the fourth most populous country in the world, with 210 million Internet users and a smartphone penetration rate of more than 70%. This high penetration rate creates a natural advantage for the promotion of digital payments.

Secondly, strong government policy support has accelerated the industry's growth. The vision of a "cashless society in Indonesia" and the Central Bank's deregulation of e-money and digital banking services have provided fertile ground for innovative payment solutions. In particular, the introduction of the QRIS (Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard) national standard has greatly contributed to the harmonisation and popularisation of QR code payments.

Furthermore, "FinTech" has become one of the local investment hotspots. 2022 Indonesia FinTech financing reached a record high of $3.5 billion in total, of which about 40% went to payment-related companies including e-wallets, cross-border settlement and other segments of the track fully demonstrates the capital market's confidence in this field.

Finally, the behavioural change effect of the epidemic is not to be ignored: the surge in online consumption during the quarantine at home directly contributed to the adoption of all types of contactless payments, and even after the outbreak subsided this habit was retained and deepened to become a regular part of daily life.

II. Interpretation of core data: current status of user scale

By the end of 2023 statistics show that active digital payment users in Indonesia have exceeded 160 million people accounting for 68% of the adult population compared to 56 million in 2019 to achieve a nearly three-fold growth rate This growth rate is far more than the average of the rest of Southeast Asia during the same period as demonstrated in the following areas:
