"We see that with the opportunity in Indonesia with the low level of digital payment penetration, especially for financial service products such as lending, insurance, and others, the opportunity is also very large for the GoTo Group to use our ecosystem to convert these transactions into financial services, said Andre.

"Their engagement with the platform is also growing very well, both in the matrix of the number of transactions compared to cash users or from retention. And we think, not only fintech services, if it becomes a larger scale it can provide increased monetization from GoTo services," said Andre.
