Currency & payments in Bekasi.
Everything you need to know before spending your first Rupiah in Kota Bekasi.
Currency
Indonesian Rupiah (IDR)
ATMs are widely available in malls, transit stations, and inside minimarts (Alfamart, Indomaret). Most foreign debit and credit cards work — look for the Visa / Mastercard / JCB logo.
Cashless
QRIS is everywhere
- QRIS is the national QR standard — one code, many wallets
- GoPay, OVO, DANA, and ShopeePay all read QRIS
- Contactless cards (Flazz, Brizzi, TapCash) work on LRT/KRL/Transjakarta
Tipping
Optional, not required
Service charge (5–10%) is usually already included in restaurant bills. Rounding up for taxi drivers and hotel porters is customary but never expected.
