Pintarnya raises $16.7M in Series A funding to strengthen its role as a leading employment and financial platform in Indonesia.

With Indonesia’s workforce heavily reliant on informal employment, Pintarnya is bridging the gap between opportunity and financial inclusion by combining job matching with responsible credit solutions.

The platform secured backing from major investors to enhance its digital job-matching services powered by AI. For many Indonesians, job hunting has traditionally meant navigating offline job fairs or word-of-mouth opportunities, often with little feedback from employers. Pintarnya digitizes this process, making hiring faster and more efficient for both workers and companies. Its platform also addresses lending challenges by working with asset-backed lenders, ensuring borrowers avoid high-interest predatory loans.
Pintarnya Raises $16.7M To Empower Informal Workers
Nearly 59% of Indonesia’s 150 million workforce is employed in the informal sector, which struggles to access formal financial services. By introducing secured loans backed by gold, electronics, or vehicles, Pintarnya provides workers with healthier financial alternatives. This strategy helps users borrow responsibly while building financial stability, especially for the underserved blue-collar and informal segments of society.
Pintarnya Raises $16.7M To Accelerate Growth
Since its 2022 seed funding, the company has grown rapidly, now serving over 10 million job seekers and 40,000 employers nationwide. Revenue has increased nearly fivefold year-over-year, with expectations to reach break-even soon. Pintarnya’s focus remains on young workers aged 21 to 40, many of whom have limited formal education but play a vital role in Indonesia’s economy. By combining employment solutions with accessible financial services, Pintarnya continues to reshape the way Indonesian workers build sustainable livelihoods.
