KinerjaPay Announces the Launch of KinerjaMall as it Expands its E-Commerce Platform
JAKARTA, Indonesia, December 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
KinerjaPay Corp. (OTCQB: KPAY), a digital payment and ecommerce platform, and the exclusive operator of http://www.kinerjapay.com, a lucrative Indonesian e-commerce portal, today announced the launch of a new dedicated marketplace called KinerjaMall (http://www.kinerjamall.com) as part of its effort to establish the Company as a leader in the burgeoning e-commerce industry in Indonesia and the surrounding regions.
"Indonesia's digital industry is still in the very early stages, however, with more than 250 million potential customers, the prospects for growth are substantial -- we are nowhere near the levels occurring in the United States," said Edwin Witarsa Ng, CEO of KinerjaPay, during the launch ceremonies for KinerjaMall in Jakarta on Tuesday, the 29th of November.
According to Antara News, the volume of e-commerce transactions in Indonesia is relatively small, representing only one to two percent of total retail transactions, as compared to the world average of approximately eight percent, and well below the high of 16 percent in South Korea or 12 percent in the United States. Antara News also reports that e-commerce in Indonesia accounted for US$12 billion in total transactions in 2014, and is forecast to reach US$24.6 billion in 2016.
KinerjaPay has a particular focus on the middle- and low-income markets, which management believes represent a largely untapped opportunity. To that end, management has developed a targeted launch strategy for KinerjaMall, including:
- a focus on everyday needs and premium, locally-produce items, included in the Company's "I Love Indonesia" program
- a manageable inventory featuring approximately 150,000 unique products supplied by a few thousand merchants
- daily, system-generated promotions to entice users to keep coming back, including free delivery and attractive discount campaigns
- an intensive marketing program designed to generate national coverage
Mr. Ng went on to say, "Our platform is very much in line with the coming release of the 14th Economic Policy Package On Digital Economy And E-Commerce, which is expected to promote the participation of small and medium enterprises in Indonesia's digital economy. We are building a comprehensive solution for Indonesian consumers looking to take advantage of the benefits associated with ecommerce. That platform now includes our digital payment solution, KinerjaPay and KinerjaMall, with additional solutions such as KinerjaGames and KinerjaTravel, expected shortly."
