Jakarta, 3 July 2025 — As part of its efforts to support the acceleration of digitalization among micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia, OCBC launches OCBC Merchant, a digital platform that enables business owners to accept cashless payments easily and efficiently.
In 2023, data from the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Kadin) recorded that the number of MSMEs in Indonesia reached 66 million. These businesses contributed 61% of Indonesia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), equivalent to IDR9,580 trillion . In line with Bank Indonesia’s target to encourage 58 million MSMEs to adopt QRIS by 2025, OCBC is committed to being part of the solution by offering digital innovations that directly address the needs of business owners.
OCBC Merchant is an application designed to help business owners #DareToLevelUp, offering three main features:
Yenny Tandias, Merchant Solution Head at OCBC, said, “We understand that business owners today not only need convenience in receiving payments, but also require transparency, speed, and control over their businesses. Through OCBC Merchant, we aim to deliver a relevant, user-friendly solution that empowers MSMEs to level up in the digital era.”
OCBC applies a Merchant Discount Rate (MDR) for QRIS in accordance with Bank Indonesia’s policy. For micro-businesses, the MDR is set at 0% for transactions below IDR 500,000, and 0.3% for transactions above IDR 500,000. Meanwhile, for regular merchants, the MDR is set at 0.7%, for education at 0.6%, for fuel stations (SPBU) at 0.4%, and 0% for merchants related to social assistance and donations. These provisions are expected to provide ease and convenience for business owners in conducting efficient and affordable digital transactions.
To introduce OCBC Merchant to a wider audience, OCBC also participated in the annual DIGIWARA FESTIVAL (Karya Kreatif Banten) hosted by Bank Indonesia’s Banten Regional Office from 23–25 May 2025. This festival represents a real step in supporting MSME empowerment and digital transformation in the Banten region. At the event, OCBC actively provided education and raised awareness among visitors on the importance of digitalization and digital payment literacy.
Easy Onboarding for Business Owners
The OCBC Merchant application can be downloaded directly from the App Store and Play Store, making it an easily accessible solution for all business owners — whether they are OCBC customers or not. For non-customers, account opening can be done online through web.ocbc.id/daftarmerchant.
By using the OCBC Merchant application, business owners are not only enabled to accept QRIS digital payments easily, but also have the opportunity to earn 2,500 Poinseru, enjoy attractive discounts and cashback for every QRIS transaction. Additionally, they can participate in Nyala Bisnis Market, a bazaar event organized by OCBC as a platform for MSMEs to promote and sell their products directly to a broader market, while expanding their networks and business exposure.
OCBC also provides 24/7 customer support via TANYA OCBC (1500-999) and email at tanya@ocbc.id.
