Indonesia’s Gojek Upgrades to a Regional Super App in Southeast Asia

KOMPAS.com – Indonesia’s ride-hailing giant Gojek has upgraded its mobile app to a regional super app in Southeast Asia.

Gojek operates in four Southeast Asian countries - Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, and Thailand. In the latter two countries, the ride-hailing giant used the names of GoViet and GET in Thailand.

To improve its competitiveness in Southeast Asia, Gojek integrated the apps in the four countries to become a regional super app, all under the name Gojek.
