QRIS Payments in Indonesia: Boost Efficiency & Stop Fraud with Labamu’s Automatic Reconciliation

QRIS (Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard) payments have become one of the most widely used payment methods in Indonesia. With just one QR code, customers can pay using various e-wallet apps, mobile banking, or other digital payment platforms.

However, behind the convenience of QRIS, there are also challenges you need to be aware of—especially if you're a business owner or merchant. These include risks of fake payment fraud, difficulties in reconciling transactions, and potential delivery delays due to unrecognized payments.

In this article, we’ll discuss why QRIS payments are important for merchants, the hidden risks you should watch out for, and how platforms like Labamu can help you accept QRIS payments more securely, efficiently, and automatically.

Why QRIS Payments Matter for Your Business

Here are a few reasons why you should seriously consider accepting QRIS payments at your business:

1. QRIS Has Become a Customer Expectation

According to Bank Indonesia data in 2024, around 76% of Indonesians use QR payment methods. If you haven’t implemented QRIS yet, you risk losing customers who are already accustomed to digital transactions.

2. Lower Transaction Fees

One of the biggest advantages of QRIS is its low transaction fees—even free for payments under Rp500,000. This is a huge benefit compared to other methods like debit or credit cards.

3. Faster Fund Settlement

With QRIS, your sales revenue can be credited to your account within hours instead of days. Especially when using platforms like Labamu, you can track incoming payments in real time.

4. Promotes Financial Inclusion

QRIS is accessible to everyone—even those without a bank account—as long as they have an e-wallet like GoPay, OVO, Dana, and others. This expands your potential customer base significantly.

The Hidden Risks of QRIS Payments

While QRIS may seem simple and efficient, it also carries risks that every business owner should be aware of. Here are some of the most common issues:

1. Fake Payment Proof Fraud

This scam happens more often than you'd think. A buyer shows a fake payment screenshot or a “successful” transaction screen that was never actually processed. As a result, you believe the payment went through—when it didn’t.

2. Time-Consuming Manual Reconciliation

Imagine handling hundreds of QRIS transactions every day and having to manually match each one to an invoice or cashier receipt. This process can waste hours every week and increases the chance of errors.

3. Delayed Orders Due to Unidentified Payments

If a payment isn’t recognized or doesn’t match your system, it can delay product delivery—leading to unhappy customers and a poor buying experience.

A real example of this risk: A retailer in Jakarta reported losing up to Rp28 million per month due to fake QRIS screens—until they switched to Labamu.
