PT Jalin Pembayaran Nusantara ("Jalin") has officially engaged in a strategic partnership with PT Pos Indonesia ("Pos Indonesia") as part of a state-owned enterprises (BUMN) synergy to speed up the development of the digital ecosystem, especially QR-based transaction services, to enhance Pos Indonesia's payment features.
