  • Salary?

    Yes, for Indonesian residents who pass KYC.

  • Open from abroad?

    KTP / NIK gated. An App Store listing is not proof.

SeaBank is a licensed Indonesian bank. Shopee is how many people find it. Shopee is not the depository. File it next to Bank Jago and Krom Bank, not next to DANA. Directories still write “Shopee bank” as if Sea Limited holds the cash. NeoBankDB writes PT Bank Seabank Indonesia, OJK, LPS.

What it is

PT Bank Seabank Indonesia. Ex Bank Kesejahteraan Ekonomi (1991). Rebrand 2021. OJK letter KEP-12/PB.1/2021. Parent: Sea Limited. Headquarters commonly listed at Gama Tower, Jl. H.R. Rasuna Said, Jakarta Selatan — confirm live footer. PT Bank Seabank Indonesia is licensed and supervised by OJK and Bank Indonesia and is an LPS participant.

Best for: Indonesian residents who already live in Shopee and want an OJK bank with LPS, not a wallet float.

Last checked 2026-09-17. Not advice.

What it does well

  • +OJK bank, not a PPI
  • +LPS participant — named scheme
  • +Distribution scale through Sea / Shopee
  • +Digital-only operating model is the product

What to watch

  • Promo deposit rates vs LPS guarantee-rate cap
  • Shopee branding will be sold as the bank
  • Credit SKUs are credit, not the savings scheme
  • Not a travel IBAN
