“Through this new feature, we hope that BCA customers can be helped to carry out transactions more easily and quickly. For example, customers who are running in the morning and are thirsty, but find that they have left their wallet or smartphone, now they don’t need to go back to the parking lot or home to get money or a smartphone. By relying on their smartwatch and this feature, people can simply pay using QRIS at the nearest shop and can make transactions,” said Jan Hendra.
The myBCA on Smartwatch service is present amidst IoT developments which make life easier for people in their daily lives.This solution is expected to not only help customers make transactions, but also suit people’s lifestyles.
Customers who want to use myBCA on Smartwatch must first pair their smartphone (pairing device) with a WatchOS or WearOS based smartwatch.
Customers are required to have an active BCA ID that has been registered in the myBCA mobile application, and each BCA ID can only be connected to one smartwatch.
Once connected, customers can immediately make transactions via smartwatch.Users can also unbind their devices (unbinding accounts) in emergency situations, for example if their smartwatch is lost.Termination of connection can be done via the myBCA mobile application or Halo BCA for BCA ID blocking.
“All data exchanged between the smartphone and smartwatch is also encrypted and sent directly via a secure Bluetooth connection, without going through a public network. If a user blocks their BCA ID during an emergency, then when the account is blocked, it automatically cannot be used to log in or make any transactions either on the smartwatch or other devices. We hope that myBCA on Smartwatch can become the foundation for the IoT banking ecosystem in the future. BCA wants to ensure that every innovation we develop is not only functional, but also stands on a solid security and infrastructure system,” said the SVP.Customer Touch Point Solution App BCA Lidya Candra.
The number of myBCA users has now almost doubled on an annual basis.As of September 2025, transaction volume via BCA mobile and internet banking will grow 19% annually.
In parallel, the growth of QRIS transactions at BCA grew 103% in the last year.This rapid growth reflects people’s enthusiasm for using practical and cashless payment solutions from BCA.
