Jakarta Great Sale 2026 Achieves Rp16.8 Trillion in Transactions

The Festival Jakarta Great Sale (FJGS) 2026 concluded successfully, recording transaction values of Rp16.8 trillion. This figure surpassed the initial target of Rp16 trillion by approximately 5 percent, indicating a robust performance for the month-long shopping event held from June 10 to July 22, 2026.

Organized by APPBI DPD DKI Jakarta in collaboration with the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government, the festival saw participation from 104 shopping centers across the capital. Various promotional programs, discounts, entertainment, and prize draws were implemented to stimulate public consumption. Mualim Wijoyo, the Chief Executive of FJGS 2026, expressed gratitude for the event's success, highlighting the continued importance of shopping centers in driving Jakarta's economic activity. "This achievement shows that shopping centers still play a vital role in driving Jakarta's economy. This success is certainly inseparable from the support of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government, all members of APPBI DPD DKI Jakarta, tenants, brands, sponsors, partners, media, and of course the people of Jakarta and tourists who enlivened FJGS 2026," he stated.

Wijoyo attributed the transaction increase to several key moments, including school holidays, the series of celebrations for Jakarta's 499th anniversary, and the diverse promotional activities offered by malls and tenants. Additionally, the FJGS featured an e-ShopperCard lottery, which involved 49 shopping centers and concluded with a draw on July 20, 2026.

The festival also played a role in promoting digital payment services. Thomas Wahyudi, SEVP Digital Business at PT Bank Tabungan Negara (Persero) Tbk) (BTN), reported that by the first half of 2026, the 'balé by BTN' super-app had garnered over 4.3 million users. This growth was supported by an expanding digital ecosystem, encompassing more than 344,000 merchants and 14,000 developers, and connectivity with 59 local governments. BTN's collaboration in FJGS is part of its strategy to broaden the adoption of digital transactions and strengthen the payment ecosystem for merchants and businesses.
