JAKARTA - Bank Jakarta encourages the acceleration of the use of non-cash transactions while increasing financial literacy and inclusion through support for digital payment systems at the 2026 Jakarta Prime Ramadan Bazaar.
The bazaar held by Perumda Pasar Jaya took place on March 9-10, 2026 at the DKI Jakarta City Hall. This activity presents various culinary and fashion tenants, as well as a number of social activities that target the younger generation and the general public during Ramadan.
Bank Jakarta's participation in the activity is part of an effort to expand the use of digital payments in the community's economic space, especially in bazaar activities and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs).
Bank Jakarta President Director, Agus H. Widodo, said this support for digital payment systems is a step for the company to expand the use of non-cash transactions in various economic activities.
"Bank Jakarta is committed to continue to encourage an inclusive and easily accessible cashless transaction ecosystem for all layers of the Jakarta community. Through the support of the payment system at the Jakarta Prime Ramadan Bazaar, we want to provide a more practical transaction experience for the community while expanding access to financial services for MSMEs," said Agus in a statement, Tuesday, March 10.
According to him, the digitization of transactions not only makes it easier for consumers when shopping, but also helps MSMEs to manage their businesses more efficiently.
Digitalization of payments is considered to help business actors in financial recording, expanding market reach, and increasing transaction transparency.
The Bazar Jakarta Prime Ramadan 2026 itself is designed as a space for economic and social interaction during Ramadan. This activity presents various food and beverage tenants, fashion products from Pasar Jaya partners, a program to redeem basic necessities at affordable prices, to entertainment for the community.
In addition, the activities are also equipped with social agendas such as orphan assistance as part of the Ramadan event series.
Bank Jakarta Corporate Secretary, Arie Rinaldi, said Bank Jakarta's presence in the activity was also aimed at increasing public understanding of the use of formal financial services.
"The presence of Bank Jakarta at this event is not only focused on providing payment systems, but also being part of an effort to educate the public about the importance of using formal financial services and digital transactions wisely. This is in line with efforts to increase national financial literacy and inclusion," explained Arie.
He assessed that the bazaar activities involving UMKM actors, communities, and the wider community were the right momentum to introduce digital banking services while expanding public access to financial services.
Bank Jakarta also referred to support for this activity as part of the synergy between the banking sector and market managers to strengthen the digital-based economic transformation and increase the competitiveness of MSMEs in Jakarta.
