JakLingko Innovation: The App, IDR 10,000 Integration Fee, and many more

Apart from digital payments via JakLingko cards, PT JakLingko Indonesia is also developing several innovations that can make it easier for users to use public transportation. For example, the JakLingko application. The JakLingko application offers various services, such as payment transactions using QR codes, checking routes and destinations for transportation modes in real time, even for activities outside of JakLingko transportation, such as providing entrance tickets to various events, paying electricity bills and cellphone credit.

Another innovation from JakLingko is integration rates. Integration tariffs are costs incurred when you take more than one JakLingko transportation (MRT Jakarta, LRT Jakarta, TransJakarta, MikroTrans, etc.) with a maximum fare of only IDR 10,000. You can only be charged this integration rate if you change modes with an initial fixed fee of IDR 2,500 and a per kilometer rate of IDR 250. By using this integration rate, you will save more on mobility with JakLingko!

So, how can you enjoy JakLingko integration rates? If you buy a destination ticket using more than one type of public transportation via the JakLingko application, the fare you will automatically get is the integrated tariff. However, please remember, travel tickets purchased via the JakLingko application will expire at 03.00 a.m.

Not only via the application, you can also enjoy integration rates by using Electronic Money Cards issued by banks, such as e-money, Brizzi, Tap Cash, Flazz, JakCard, and others. Integration rates using an Electronic Money Card are only valid for 180 minutes.

That’s how to get a JakLingko card along with other related information. Let’s buy the card and travel with JakLingko! To make your trip well planned, you can check the routes and schedules for MRT Jakarta, LRT Jakarta, Transjakarta and Mikrotrans via the JAKIapplication. Don't have the app yet?
