PT Pos’ Online Financial Network Begins Next Year
TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta:State-owned postal service, PT Pos Indonesia will begin its online financial network next year. “The try-outs started this year,” said PT Pos Indonesia’s deputy director, I Ketut Mardjana, in Jakarta yesterday. The network will facilitate consumers in making transactions which are predicted to increase this year. Online transactions are predicted to triple in volume.
PT Telekomunikasi Indonesia manages 3.500 post offices. PT Pos and Telkom are currently testing the system, ensuring it to be efficient yet safe, to prevent it from being broken into. Around 80 percent of post offices are targeted to operate the online financial network by the end of the year. “The rest should be operational by next year,” Mardjana said.
However, Mardjana would not mention the investment value of the project. He only said that the cooperation with Telkom will be in the form of profit sharing from the transaction fees paid by customers.
