KinerjaPay Corp announces partnership with Uber

JAKARTA, INDONESIA - KinerjaPay Corp., a digital payment and eCommerce platform, announced its partnership with Uber Technologies, Inc., the global smartphone-enabled 'Ride-Hailing' service.

Uber presently operates in 77 countries and 633 cities, with 40 million riders and 2 million drivers worldwide. Since its launch in 2012, Uber has become the most recognized alternative to traditional taxi cabs, opening up more possibilities for riders and more business for drivers. Indonesia's ride-hailing sector is expected to grow to US$5.6 billion in 2025 from US$800 million in 2015, according to a report by Google and Singapore's state-investment firm Temasek Holdings.

Edwin Witarsa Ng, Chief Executive Officer of KinerjaPay Corp. commented, "Uber is changing the way the world moves people in urban areas internationally. Our partnership with Uber will give our users/clients a convenient and safe transportation alternative to driving their own car or taking taxis, while our smartphone Uber app will give riders the ability to pay for their ride service using our smartphone app, without the need for a credit card or cash. Our payment platform will provide our Indonesian customers with the ability to use the Uber technology the way it was meant to be, payment without having to use cash or credit card."

Under the terms of the partnership, Uber will grant KinerjaPay users an exclusive promotion code for first-time users, valid for four rides. Users can initially redeem the Uber/KinerjaPay promotion code by creating a new account on the Company's eCommerce platform or meeting a certain spending threshold with KinerjaPay's proprietary KinerjaMall service. User/clients can then redeem their unique code directly in their KinerjaPay smartphone app to use the Uber service.
