Visa announced its collaboration with the DANA digital wallet, in accelerating the transformation of digital payments in Indonesia, to create a more connected, inclusive, and secure payment ecosystem.

Through this collaboration, the public can now make Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) payments and the contents of the DANA balance using a Visa card, which is the first breakthrough in Indonesia.

"By integrating the global Visa network that is trusted and local innovation of DANA, we created a payment ecosystem that connects Indonesia with the world," said Poojyata Khattar, Head of Product and Solutions, Regional Southeast Asia, Visa.

The convenience offered by Visa and DANA in supporting QRIS payments and refilling the DANA e-wallet through Visa cards simplifies the way Indonesians and tourists transact with merchants Bagi.

This initiative allows them to register for DANA accounts using international phone numbers and Visa cards, making it easier to shop, buy food, and explore Indonesia without cash.

For merchants, especially small and micro businesses, this step expands their reach to global customers and supports smoother and more efficient digital transactions.

Along with the acceleration of digital adoption, Visa presents global standard security and AI-based fraud prevention technology to protect consumers and merchants, ensuring safe participation in a growing non-cash economy.

"Through collaboration with cross-ecoup partners, including Visa, we see interoperability as an opportunity to expand financial inclusion," added Darrick Rochili, Chief Innovation Officer of DANA.

The collaboration between Visa and DANA confirms a joint commitment to providing innovation, inclusion, and large-scale security.

Together, Visa and DANA not only transform the way of transacting, but also move Indonesia's digital economy towards a stronger, safer, and connected future.
