JAKARTA – PT Bank Negara Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BBNI) has initiated a collaboration with Astra Credit Companies (ACC), a group of automotive financing companies under PT Astra International Tbk (ASII).

BNI and ACC formalised the partnership concerning the BNI Autopay service during an event titled "Synergy for Sustainable Growth" held at the Grha BNI 46 building in Jakarta on Tuesday (18/2).

BNI Autopay is an automated payment system that facilitates recurring payments with a flexible daily limit, featuring a One-Time Password (OTP) for added security.

Additionally, Dharmawan Phie, Chief Finance Officer of ACC, highlighted that BNI’s Autopay service provides convenience for customers to pay instalments without needing to visit an ACC branch.

“Customers simply need to register on the ACC ONE platform to access the payment facility through their BNI accounts,” he explained.

According to its official website, ACC is a group comprising three financing companies: PT Astra Sedaya Finance, PT Swadharma Bhakti Sedaya Finance, and PT Astra Auto Finance, along with one information technology service provider, PT Cipta Sedaya Digital Indonesia. (DK/ZH)
