Another positive news about LinkAja today😊 #linkaja #telkomsel #profitability #bumn #soe #fintech #payment #sustainability

(Updated) Indonesian fintech firm LinkAja's tactical shift to B2B2C model in the competitive payments sector has led to the company achieving positive earnings (EBITDA) for three months straight, while reducing its marketing expenditure by 80% this year. The strategy entails connecting dealers and resellers of mobile credits within the ecosystem of local telco giant Telkomsel.   🔍 LinkAja, closely tied with government institutions, curtailed spending by eliminating most cashback offers, among other measures. 💡 The company's chief finance and strategy officer, Reza Ari Wibowo, anticipates LinkAja achieving a positive net income for 2024 and a 30% surge in revenue this year. 👔 LinkAja introduced an app catering to over 200,000 state-owned enterprise employees, aiming to reach 1 million users by facilitating exclusive deals via its platform.   - Want to keep up with the ins and outs of the #tech ecosystem in Asia?

It's a thorough report of the current LinkAja position written by Gabriel Budi Sutrisno for an organic article for LinkAja. As a corporate communications practitioner in a startup industry, it requires #agility and #cautiousness when we have limited updates to be shared. We need to keep media colleagues updated with our #PathtoProfitability, even though something we've shared is not fully about good news. As written, we still earn losses annually; however, that's the situation. The #KeyMessage we share is #SureProgress of our company and speak #honestly. We see the progress of LinkAja and are #optimistic that the strategy of #B2B2C will not only leverage us to the next level but also contribute to financial inclusion in Indonesia. 

🚀 The first edition of the #fintech postgraduate studies has been completed! We successfully achieved this milestone in collaboration with the University of Lodz, Invest in Lodz (Central Poland), and the companies associated with FinTech Central Poland. During my speech at the graduation ceremony, I highlighted two key points: 1️⃣ Large global clients must be convinced that their partner can develop and scale cooperation. This can be achieved by demonstrating that we operate within an ecosystem that helps to gain necessary resources. This ecosystem includes education, science, business, the legal and administrative environment, as well as openness to innovation and readiness to support and finance it. It's not just about having entities in each category; actual collaboration on joint projects is crucial. The #fintech postgraduate studies are an excellent example of this cooperation. 2️⃣ The best specialists are those who are aware and deeply understand their work. Especially now, when AI is taking over routine tasks. Nothing fosters understanding and awareness better than teaching others. Conducting classes is a priceless opportunity for our employees' development, particularly with a demanding group of students. I'm proud that MakoLab, Artur Olszczyński, Beata Wawrzecka and I were part of this incredible project. 🤞 I keep my fingers crossed and will do my best to continue this initiative.

I was in the education business when COVID came to our life’s, and as with many industries digitalization was a must at that time 💻 We had to do in a matter of weeks what it wasn’t even meant to be done that year, because the focus was on the local market and on-site programs. Once digitalization was established we realized the possibilities: Argentina, Peru, Chile, Paraguay, Colombia, Latam was just in front of our nose’s and we never raised our heads. Expansion started to be on the table and payments join the discussing almost at the same time. At that time I didn’t know much about how easy it would be to manage payments in other countries, having the right partner can make the difference when handling expansion projects. Let Bamboo Payment Systems help you expand in the region 🚀
