JAKARTA — Located at Menara BTPN, Kuningan, South Jakarta, PT Bank Jago Tbk through Jago Syariah officially launched the Jago Amal feature on Wednesday (05/04/23). This platform is a forum for the distribution of zakat and alms to continue the good for customers. Partnering with Zakat Management Organizations or trusted amil bodies in Indonesia, namely Dompet Dhuafa, Rumah Zakat, and Baznas, Jago Syariah invites the public to realize good intentions by sharing with others.
The launching of this feature was also accompanied by a Talk Show entitled “Jago Amal & Kampanye #TeruskanKebaikanmu” which was attended by Waasi B Sumintardja as Head of Sharia Business Bank Jago, then Rizaludin Kurniawan as Head of Baznas for Collection, Ahmad Faqih as General Manager of Resources Mobilization ZIS Dompet Dhuafa, and Rendy Septian as Digital Funding &; Online Global Relationship Div Head Rumah Zakat.
Waasi as Head of Sharia Business Bank Jago said that Jago Amal departed from research conducted on the digital market segment, which considers zakat and alms to be important. The research resulted in three important considerations made by Jago Syariah for customers who want to donate. First, by cooperating with trusted amil zakat agencies (the agencies are Baznas, Dompet Dhuafa, and Rumah Zakat), then the transparent distribution of funds and payment methods that are practical and easy for customers.

“We have this Jago Amal pocket so customers can quickly and easily distribute zakat and alms. Who can they also choose their alms priorities for? For orphans or humanity in general? In addition, we can also pay on behalf of others, for example, we want to pay for mothers who are not there, and the payment is also free,” said Waasi.
He also said that the launch of Jago Amal is expected to present an inclusive financial solution, which will make it easier for people to participate in kindness, social activities, and further improve the quality of life for the people of Indonesia.
As General Manager of Resources Mobilization ZIS Dompet Dhuafa, on his occasion, Ahmad Faqih said, as one of the partners of OPZ (Zakat Management Organization) with Jago Syariah, Jago Amal is one of the collaborations full of potential goodness. The reason is, the donor database of Dompet Dhuafa itself is dominated by millennials and the collection is also mostly done through Digital Fundraising.
“Dompet Dhuafa is the largest database of donors dominated by millennials. In addition, as of 2016, Dompet Dhuafa also tries to pioneer and manage Digital Fundraising by collaborating with all stakeholders from various platforms. Until 2020-2021 during the pandemic, the surge in transactions from digital channels was extraordinary, which has had an effect until now,” said Faqih.

Further explained regarding the Indonesian people who always have the potential for kindness in their hearts, “Indonesians, they are not facilitated to do good, let alone facilitated, people just download Jago Syariah on their gadgets and there is a donation feature. Hopefully, Jago Amal can provide the best service for donors, the people of Indonesia, and all stakeholders who want to do good,” he added again.
“We are very grateful to Jago Syariah for collaborating with us for this good collaboration in the Jago Amal feature,” concluded Faqih.
The Jago Amal launching event ended with photos and iftar with partners and media partners who were also present.
Bank Jago also invites its customers to improve Indonesian children’s education quality through #TeruskanKebaikan programs. The trick is to donate IDR 50,000 from every new Jago and Jago Syariah account opening on 20 March-20 April 2023. (Dompet Dhuafa/Awalia R)
