Overview

SNAP is the National Open API Payment Standard established by Bank Indonesia to boost integration, interconnection and interoperability, as well as security and reliability of digital payment system infrastructure in Indonesia. The SNAP provisions are stated in the "Decree Letter of the Governor of Bank Indonesia No.23/10/KEP.GBI/2021 dated August 16, 2021, regarding Determination of Payment Open Application Programming Interface (API) Standards," which will be mandatory implemented in stages for each of Open Payment API.

SNAP Migration Methods

As a licensed Payment Service Provider (PJP) level 1, DOKU is committed to supporting SNAP implementation with national standards. DIRECT API service is affected by this migration process in particular. In line with these provisions, we advise DOKU merchants to migrate to SNAP for smoother business transactions.

The following are things that are standardized in the SNAP migration process:

• Technical, security and data documents that will be standardizing communication protocols, API architecture types, amount structures and formats, authentication methods, authorization methods, encryption methods, API access management requirements, request data structures, and response data structures.

• SNAP governance guidance document that will be standardizing consumer protection guidelines, data protection, prudential requirements for Service Providers and Service Users, and contracts.

Based on BI regulations, the SNAP migration process must be implemented before June 30, 2025. So, please make sure that you have migrated to SNAP before this given deadline. DOKU Integration team will assist you during the migration process.

1) Migrate using SNAP SDK

Benefits of using SNAP SDK for your migration:

• Faster integration: Complete the integration process within two weeks.

  • The library abstracts much of the API complexity, making the integration process straightforward and reducing development time.

  • Features like automatic token management and data parsing minimize the need for custom code, streamlining the implementation.

  • Existing users can upgrade with only a few lines of additional code, as the library handles critical tasks automatically.

• Practical guidelines: Detailed documentation and practical examples make it easy for developers to implement and troubleshoot the integration.

• Auto-update Library: The library is updated regularly to meet the latest standards and regulations, ensuring ongoing security and compliance. This will make the integration process accessible, even for non-technical team members.

2) Migrate using API

Benefits of using API for your migration:

• Flexibility in Programming Languages: APIs are generally not tied to any specific programming language. Developers can use APIs with various supported programming languages, offering greater flexibility in development.

• Lightweight and Space-Efficient: APIs are usually lighter than SDKs as there is no need to download or install a complete package of libraries or tools that an SDK might require. This makes APIs more space-efficient and quicker to implement.

• Consistency and Standards: APIs often follow specific standards (such as REST or GraphQL) which make them easier to understand and use for developers already familiar with those standards.

• Ease of Maintenance: APIs are usually managed by the service provider, meaning updates and maintenance are handled on the server side. API users do not need to worry about managing updates or version compatibility, as the API provider handles this.
