Interbank Foreign Currency (Remittance)

What is Remittance?

Remittance is a service available in Bank Jago that allows you to receive foreign currency transfers from other banks, both domestic and overseas, into your Jago Foreign Currency Pocket in the same currency.

This service can help:

  • cross-border workers receive salaries or payments,
  • migrant workers send money to their families,
  • and app or website owners receive advertising revenue from overseas.

How can I receive interbank foreign currency transfers into my Jago Foreign Currency Pocket?

  1. First, create a Foreign Currency Pocket in the currency you want to receive, for example, a USD Pocket.
  2. Ensure the sender transfers funds in the same currency. Transfers cannot be received into an IDR Pocket.
  3. If a SWIFT code is required, use: JAGBIDJA
  4. If you are asked for an account number or IBAN for incoming funds, please use your Foreign Currency Pocket number.
  5. For transfers above USD 10,000, the sender must provide a purpose code in accordance with applicable regulations. At the moment, Bank Jago does not support transactions with purpose codes related to export-import activities (or for code 1011).
