GoTo and TikTok Enter Strategic E-commerce Partnership to Support
Indonesian MSMEs
● Tokopedia and TikTok Shop Indonesia’s businesses will be combined under the existing
PT Tokopedia entity
● TikTok has committed to invest over US$1.5bn in the enlarged entity over time
● Beli Lokal campaign to be launched on Tokopedia and TikTok for Harbolnas on December
12
Jakarta, Indonesia, December 11, 2023 - PT GoTo Gojek Tokopedia Tbk ("GoTo" or the
“Company”), the largest digital ecosystem in Indonesia, and TikTok, the leading global
entertainment platform, today announced a mutually beneficial strategic partnership to drive long
term growth for Indonesia’s MSME sector and the country’s digital economy as a whole.
As part of the agreement, Tokopedia and TikTok Shop Indonesia’s businesses will be combined
under the existing PT Tokopedia entity in which TikTok will take a controlling stake. The shopping
features within the TikTok app in Indonesia will be operated and maintained by the enlarged
entity.
TikTok has committed to invest over US$1.5bn in the enlarged entity over time, to provide future
funding required by the business, without additional dilution to GoTo. The arrangement will allow
both TikTok and GoTo to each serve Indonesian consumers and MSMEs more comprehensively.
GoTo will benefit from the growth of the enlarged entity and will remain an ecosystem partner to
Tokopedia, through its digital financial services via GoTo Financial and on-demand services via
Gojek. GoTo will also receive an ongoing revenue stream from Tokopedia commensurate with its
scale and growth.
The strategic partnership will commence with a pilot period carried out in close consultation with
and supervision by the relevant regulators. The first campaign will be the Beli Lokal initiative
which will launch on December 12th, coinciding with Indonesia’s National Online Shopping Day
(Harbolnas) - a government program designed to grow Indonesia's digital economy by supporting
local MSMEs. The campaign, which will be available on TikTok as well as Tokopedia, will promote
a broad range of merchants, with a strong focus on Indonesian products. The Beli Lokal offering
on TikTok will enable its community to engage and shop with the local merchants they know and
love.
Going forward, TikTok, Tokopedia and GoTo will transform Indonesia’s e-commerce sector,
creating millions of new job opportunities over the next five years. More than 90 percent of the

combined business’s merchants are MSMEs and the companies will undertake a series of joint
initiatives to support them, including:
● The promotion of Indonesian products on Tokopedia and TikTok’s platforms
● Building the capacity of Indonesia's MSMEs through a holistic program focusing on skills
development and providing resources relating to upstream production and selling
● Supporting merchants to sell products online by providing support in areas such as
marketing, branding, and sustainable business practices
● Helping local brands to promote their products in international markets
● The establishment of technology centers across Indonesia to develop local tech talent
● Ensuring a marketplace that fosters fair competition.
The transaction, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2024, is in line with the GoTo
Group’s strategy to strengthen its financial and strategic position by growing its total addressable
market. To ensure the PT Tokopedia business continues to operate in the best interests of
Indonesia's digital economy, a committee under the enlarged entity will be established to
facilitate transition and integration, chaired by GoTo Group CEO Patrick Walujo, with support from
members of both businesses.
Goldman Sachs is acting as the financial advisor to GoTo Group on this transaction.
