Indonesia, 10 May 2021 – Tokopedia continues to promote collaboration with a number of institutions to make it easier for people to practice worship while sharing kindness through Tokopedia, especially during Ramadan.
Ekhel Chandra Wijaya, External Communications Senior Lead Tokopedia, said, “During Ramadan 2021, the value of Zakat Maal transactions increased by almost 3x, while the number of Donation transactions has increased more than 3x when compared to the period before Ramadan.”
Ekhel added, “Donations from Tokopedia users are periodically distributed to others in need by various trusted institutions connected to our platform.”
Tokopedia also presents a number of other features in Tokopedia Salam that can be used to share kindness, such as the Fidyah feature, Charity Box, Qurban, and Waqf.
Apart from sharing kindness, people can also practice worship with the Digital Al-Qur’an feature and Prayer Times which can be accessed through Tokopedia Salam.
“Since it was launched for the first time, active monthly Prayer Schedule users on Tokopedia have increased by almost 12x. Meanwhile, monthly active users of Al-Quran Digital have increased more than 35x, “Ekhel explained.
Tokopedia, through Tokopedia Salam, provides end-to-end solutions, from the availability of products and services, to payments, for people who have a need for good products and services.
On the other hand, in order to make it easier for the public to strengthen the relationship in the midst of a pandemic safely, Tokopedia also presents a Paket Selamat which offers discounts of up to 50% for various digital products, such as pulses, data packages, game vouchers and streaming to payment of PLN electricity.
“Through this series of initiatives, it is hoped that it can provide wider access for more Indonesians so that they can help improve the welfare of other communities while at the same time encouraging the digital sharia economic growth in Indonesia,” Ekhel concluded.
