Jakarta, April 12 2022 – KoinWorks, the trusted financial solution platform, launched their latest innovation called KoinWorks NEO, an integrated financial service for SMEs. With “One Click to Grow Your Business”, KoinWorks NEO Users can make payments, send money, and access financial overview as a financial management facility.
The much-awaited official launch of KoinWorks NEO was attended by Benedicto Haryono (CEO & Co-Founder of KoinWorks), Grace Hong (KoinWorks Chief Marketing Officer), Aditya Chintawar (KoinWorks Chief Product Officer), Christian Sugiono (Actor and Entrepreneur), and much sought-after collaborator Hendra ‘HeHe’ (Artist and Freelancer). Benedicto Haryono, the CEO & Co-Founder says, “ At KoinWorks, we customize and enhance our financial solutions to make it easy for freelancers, influencers, startups and home businesses to succeed. This innovation shows how we are resolute in accelerating the SME digital transformation program that is being run by the government. We are proud to share that KoinWorks NEO is now ready to use as a one-stop service for SMEs and other business users.”
Aside from esteemed members of the press, the launch was attended by online influencers and social media business owners that were drawn to the event by the idea that an all-encompassing digital business solution in our post-pandemic world now exists, partly thanks to the much-hyped collaboration with NFT artist ‘HeHe’ who KoinWorks CEO Haryono announced would also be designing a custom KoinWorks NEO Card. The artist ‘Hehe’ also spoke about the holistic partnership by saying “I’m thankful KoinWorks NEO is intended for artists and freelancers like myself who need this but have never had easy access because platforms like this are usually expensive and are hard to use. Knowing I can do all my digital transactions, make invoices that adjust to deadlines and so much more puts me at ease. It will help artists focus on our passions and create more art sustainably. I also appreciate this collaborative project and am proud to be able to create works for KoinWorks NEO.”
Aditya Chintawar, Chief Product Officer of KoinWorks shared the finer points of NEO Card as the main service. “NEO Card is a virtual card within the KoinWorks NEO platform that allows users to manage different kinds of transactions. Every KoinWorks NEO holder can activate up to five NEO Cards in no time and free of charge. In addition to the NEO Card, a payment link facility is provided to meet the needs of SMEs in receiving payments from customers through various channels.”
Entrepreneur and actor, Christian Sugiono, an early adopter of KoinWorks NEO shared his experience. “I have tried the NEO Card feature, and it is very helpful for distributing business needs, such as for operations, marketing needs, purchasing supplies, and employee salaries. Everything is possible in one application. Buying goods on e-commerce is also very easy,” he said.
Along with the launch of KoinWorks NEO, KoinWorks officially starts a competition titled KoinWorks NEO Inspire that aims to inspire SMEs to grow their business with KoinWorks NEO and also to improve the creativity of SMEs. KoinWorks NEO Inspire invites participants from six categories: Grassroot SMEs, women entrepreneurs, content creators/influencers, startups, educators, and freelancers. Each category of participants will go through a series of selection rounds until they are chosen to join a bootcamp with mentors and then advance to the final round. KoinWorks prepares grants with a total value up to 2 billion rupiah across all winners at the end of the competition.
“KoinWorks NEO Inspire is a story-pitch competition for SMEs and other productive sectors. This program is also a concrete step for KoinWorks to support the progress of SMEs by facilitating SMEs to continue learning and to maximize their potential. We hope that the participants who take part in the competition will be able to significantly scale business and expand networking for business growth,” shared Grace Hong, the Chief Marketing Officer of KoinWorks who debuted the KoinWorks NEO Inspire project at the launch.
