JAKARTA - PT. MNC Kapital Indonesia Tbk (BCAP) through its SPIN Pay business unit encourages the public to make non-cash transactions during the COVID-19 pandemic, which is still happening today.

"We continue to provide ease and increase convenience for our application users, especially during a pandemic like today. Through SPIN Pay, users can easily make cashless transactions by scanning all QR codes with the QRIS logo on the merchant store," said Director of Smart Payment Indonesia (SPIN), Jessica Tanoesoedibjo, quoted from Antara, Tuesday, February 9.

The daughter of conglomerate Hary Tanoesoedibjo said, the pandemic that has hit Indonesia for more than one year has an impact on everyone, including the government, businessmen, and the lower middle class. In order to continue to survive, many people have flocked to open new businesses, from micro to large businesses.

Based on data from the Ministry of Cooperation and Small and Medium Enterprises (Kemenkop UKM), the number of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) has reached 64.2 million and is able to absorb more than 116.9 million workers.

Even so, the COVID-19 pandemic caused a huge economic shock in all countries in the world, as well as for Indonesia, which continues to experience economic decline. The growth of MSMEs during this pandemic certainly has an important role for economic growth in Indonesia.

Therefore, continued Jessica, SPIN Pay fully supports in helping UMKM owners to run their business more flexibly in order to grow.

SPIN Pay, with the support of the Quick Response Code Indonesia Standard (QRIS) launched by Bank Indonesia (BI) on August 17, 2019, helps MSME business owners to accept cashless transactions.

In addition to helping the government in preventing the spread of COVID-19 from cash transactions, the use of QRIS also helps MSME business owners expand their business for all groups.

In addition, SPIN Pay also launched a new innovation in making transactions using QRIS in collaboration with e-TV Mall. This collaboration certainly makes it easier for SPIN application users to make purchases directly from television.

Jessica said, the aim of the innovation and cooperation is to support government policies related to minimization of traveling or leaving the house if it is not urgent.

SPIN Pay made this innovation so that all Indonesian people who carry out their activities at home can still buy the products or goods needed, only through television without having to leave the house and interact directly, so as to reduce the risk of contracting COVID-19.

"Now, just scan the QRIS on the television screen using the SPIN Pay application for the products you want to buy," said Jessica.
