Damar added, entering 2024, Pegadaian is committed to always providing the best service for the community and producing the best performance by expanding its wings in developing the gold ecosystem. This is in line with the increasing interest of the public to invest in gold.

"The pawnshop has a variety of gold investment products that can be owned in various ways. It can be through Gold Installments, Gold Arisan, buying jewelry through Gallery 24, or saving gold with Gold Savings products that can be accessed directly through the Digital Pawnshop application.

Meanwhile, with Gadai from Home, the estimator can directly visit customers and estimate the collateral on the spot. Through these two services, customers can make transactions without having to go to Pegadaian outlets.
