KB SYARIAH BANK FORGES STRATEGIC COLLABORATION WITH MENTARI BAYT COIN AND SUPPORTS DIGITALIZATION VIA THE MASKITA APP
Yogyakarta, September 19, 2026 – KB Bank Syariah continues to strengthen its commitment to fostering innovation and developing the Sharia financial ecosystem through a strategic collaboration with PT Mentari Bayt Coin (MBC) to provide Sharia-compliant, gold-based financial services.
The collaboration was marked by the signing of an agreement during the Grand Launch of MBC Gold and the activation of the MASKITA application, held at the SM Tower Malioboro Ballroom in Yogyakarta on Saturday (September 19, 2026).
KB Bank Syariah was represented at the event by its Business Director, Santi Aji Yuniasih. The event was also attended by the General Chairman of the Muhammadiyah Central Board and various leaders from the Sharia financial industry.
The partnership entails the provision of Mentari Bayt Coin gold bars with 99.99% purity, featuring SNI certification and Bullion Protect® security technology. These products are available in denominations ranging from 1 gram to 100 grams and are supported by a buyback mechanism that is digitally integrated via the MASKITA application.
KB Bank Syariah Business Director Santi Aji Yuniasih stated that this collaboration represents a strategic move by the bank to meet public demand for investment instruments that are secure, easily accessible, and compliant with Sharia principles. “Praise be to God, on this occasion, KB Bank Syariah is not merely present but is actively participating in growing alongside the ecosystem. Gold holds a special place in the hearts of the Indonesian people and has long been trusted as a reliable instrument for preserving asset value. Through our collaboration with Mentari Bayt Coin and the digitalization support provided by the MASKITA App, we aim to expand public access to Sharia-compliant gold investments—making them easier, more inclusive, and a source of blessings. This initiative reflects KB Bank Syariah’s commitment to remaining a primary financial partner for Indonesian families,” said Santi.
This collaboration aligns with KB Bank Syariah’s strategy to broaden its service reach, strengthen partnerships with various institutions and communities, and enhance Sharia financial literacy and inclusion through the development of gold-based products and services.
Moving forward, KB Bank Syariah will continue to drive the development and integration of Sharia gold services into the company’s business ecosystem. The Bank also welcomes broader collaboration opportunities with various stakeholders to support inclusive and sustainable economic growth and the development of the Sharia financial industry.
