Indonesia, May 27, 2022 – Today, technology plays an important role in helping people from all walks of life access passive income through various types of digital products and services.
Through its Head of Sales Operations and Products (Digital Goods), Yosep Aditya Susanto, Tokopedia shared beginner-friendly five ways to generate passive income from the comfort of your own home.
1. Retail Savings Bond (SBR) Series SBR011 Investment – SBR011, with an offering period until June 16, 2022, is a type of Government Securities (SBN) issued and guaranteed 100% by the Government. SBR011 can be purchased starting from Rp. 1 million and matures in two years.
According to the Director General of Budget Financing and Risk Management of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia (DJPPR Kemenkeu RI), Luky Alfirman, “SBR011 is the perfect starting point for first-time investors because it is risk-free, easy to order, and can be purchased online – including through e-commerce. This way, the community can also contribute directly to national development."
Yosep continued, "After registering and ordering SBR011 through distribution partners, potential investors can make payments through the Modul Penerimaan Negara (MPN) feature on Loket Pajak Tokopedia.” In 2021, the number of transactions made through Tokopedia's MPN feature more than tripled compared to 2020.
2. Reksa Dana Investment – With Tokopedia Reksa Dana, anyone can start investing with as little as Rp. 10.000 with potential returns of up to 8.5% per year.

3. Gold Savings – Over the past three years, the number of registered Tokopedia Emas users has grown by nearly 27 times. This shows that gold remained a relatively safe long-term investment for many people, especially during the pandemic.
“Now anyone can save gold easily, safely, and affordably through Tokopedia – even starting as low as Rp. 5.000. What’s more, gold can also serve as emergency funds and additional investments," added Yosep.
