QRIS & E-Wallets in Indonesia: Should Tourists Use Them?

I recently shot a video about using the Touch 'n Go e-wallet in Indonesia. I wanted to test how well this Malaysian digital wallet would work scanning QRIS QR codes in Indonesia and processing cross border payments. For the most part, Touch 'n Go worked extremely well, and I would recommend any visitor to Indonesia from Malaysia to give it a try.

But as a follow-up, I wanted to also experience using one of the many Indonesian e-wallets. There are many to choose from, such as GoPay, OVO, Dana, ShopeePay, and more. I decided to use GoPay. It seemed to be the most foreigner-friendly. And it is connected directly to the GoJek super app with food delivery and car and motorcycle ride services.

In this video, I talk about the Indonesian QR code payment network QRIS. I discuss what it is and how it works. And I demonstrate scanning QRIS codes and making payments with the GoPay e-wallet in a variety of situations. I shot video of myself using GoPay and QRIS in 10 different real-world situations. I also provide a detailed tutorial on how to download the GoPay app and how to add money to your e-wallet and then use it.
