As non-cash transactions continue to rise, particularly with the increasing use of QRIS (Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard) services, many users face challenges such as needing to double-check payments or take photos with their phones. This issue can be effectively addressed with the QRIS Soundbox. The QRIS Soundbox is a device that enables businesses to receive digital payments through QRIS, providing audio notifications for each transaction. This speaker feature allows merchants to easily confirm when a transaction has been successfully completed.
Not only does this device streamline the payment process beyond just scanning a barcode, but it also enhances security and improves the overall experience for both business owners and customers. This innovative solution is a product of PT Netzme Kreasi Indonesia (Netzme).
Priced at around IDR 100,000 and supported by 24-hour service, Netzme aims to leverage major events like the QRIS Summer Run Bali 2025 and the Simultaneous Bazaar in DKI Jakarta as new tools to accelerate financial inclusion and regional digitalization. “All participants are required to use QRIS for registration, providing them with firsthand experience in non-cash transactions. Additionally, this event will raise environmental awareness through waste management education,” stated Indra Gunawan Sutarto, Advisor at the Bali Representative Office of Bank Indonesia, as quoted on Saturday, June 21, 2025.
The QRIS Summer Run 2025 aims to enhance financial inclusion while expanding the acceptance of non-cash transactions in Bali through QRIS Tap. This initiative is expected to broaden digital transaction acceptance, boost financial inclusion, promote smart tourism, and encourage the growth of the digital creative economy in the region. During this event, Netzme will facilitate direct transaction experiences using QRIS Tap through the QRIS Soundbox for all participants. Furthermore, Netzme is collaborating with local souvenir merchants such as Bali Banana, Heavenly Chocolate Bali, and The Camp. Additionally, a partnership with Luna POS will allow visitors to shop conveniently using QRIS Tap.
Meanwhile, the Simultaneous Bazaar in DKI Jakarta, coinciding with the city’s 498th anniversary, will take place across 44 districts on June 13-14, 2025. Each district will feature around 30 Jakpreneur SMEs. All participating Jakpreneur SMEs will be equipped with QRIS Jakpreneur, enabling them to actively accept non-cash transactions. This initiative not only supports the digitalization of SMEs but also strengthens the local economic ecosystem in Jakarta. “The QRIS Soundbox from Netzme is an affordable and user-friendly technology solution designed specifically for SMEs. With this technology, we hope to see continued growth in Indonesia’s digital economy. We are confident that the QRIS Soundbox will become a go-to solution for SMEs,” concluded Vicky G Saputra, CEO of PT Netzme Kreasi Indonesia.
