PT Irian Putra Sejahtera works with small and owner-run businesses in South Jakarta that need financing and do not know where to start — helping them understand their options, prepare a proper application, and approach institutions that are actually licensed to lend.
We start with the other side of that, because it is where most of the damage happens. A shop owner short of stock money on a Friday is exactly the customer an illegal online lender is looking for — and from a phone screen, legal and illegal look almost the same.
Licensed online lenders in Indonesia may only ask for access to three things on your phone: camera, microphone and location. Anything more — contacts, photo gallery, SMS — is a sign of an illegal app.
Think of a specific app, website or person offering you money. Tick every statement that is true of them. The panel counts the warning signs as you go.
It takes minutes, and it is the only verification that counts. Check the exact name of the company or the app — illegal operators change names constantly, which is why checking the name matters more than memorising lists.
Kontak OJK, the regulator's official contact line.

konsumen@ojk.go.idStay calm. The threats are designed to make you panic and pay, and paying under pressure almost never ends them.
Bank credit, licensed financing companies and licensed online lending each suit different needs. We explain which fits what you are trying to do.
Organising the records, statements and documents that a licensed lender will ask for, so an application is complete the first time.
Working out how much the business actually needs and can realistically repay, before anyone applies for anything.
We only point you towards institutions whose licensing you can confirm with OJK yourself — and we show you how.
No. We do not lend and we do not hold anyone's money. We help businesses prepare for and approach institutions licensed by OJK. If anyone offers you a loan using our name, it is not us.
No, and nobody honestly can. The licensed institution makes its own decision. Anyone who guarantees approval — especially for a fee paid first — is describing a fraud.
No. Licensed online lending exists, is supervised by OJK, and follows rules on data access, pricing and collection. The problem is that illegal apps look similar. That is exactly why the check above matters.
Follow the steps in the dark section above: revoke permissions, keep evidence, report to OJK and Satgas PASTI, and report threats to the police. Warn your contacts yourself first. Do not pay anyone offering to make it stop for an extra fee.
Tell us what the business does, what the money is for and roughly how much. The first conversation costs nothing, and it may end with us telling you that you do not need to borrow at all.
These are the only channels this company uses. We will never contact you first with a loan offer.
