Technological advancements have transformed the banking industry, which also includes interbank fund transfer methods. The various transfer methods provided allow customers to quickly and securely send and receive money, either domestically or overseas.
Here are some of the transfer methods commonly used in the banking industry:
SKN transfer method, or often also called the Lalu Lintas Giro (LLG) transfer line, is an interbank transfer method that takes 2 to 3 days. This is because the bank must first conduct a clearing process on the sender's account to ensure that the amount of money sent is sufficient.
In the SKN system flow, the sending bank must first send money to Bank Indonesia (BI), then BI sends the money to the receiving bank account. The presence of Bank Indonesia in the middle of this process is the reason why the transfer process via SKN takes a long time. However, through the SKN method you can transfer money up to a maximum of IDR100,000,000 per day. This method is suitable if you want to send large amounts of money.
In comparison to the SKN method, the transfer process through the RTGS route only takes 3 to 4 hours and can be faster. However, this method is still processed following bank working hours. This means that if you make a transfer when the bank is closed, the money sent will arrive the next day.
Different from the SKN or RTGS transfer method which is done through a bank teller, the RTO method is done through an ATM machine. However, you can do it by visiting a branch office, or through internet banking, or mobile banking.
RTO mechanism limits money transfer to a maximum of Rp25,000,000 per day with an admission fee of Rp6,500 to Rp7,500, depending on the provisions of each bank. For Maybank savings, customers are exempted from transfer fees via ATM or SMS+ Banking, as long as the balance in the account is more than Rp10 million.
