JAKARTA, Indonesia, Aug. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Indonesian fintech company JULO has launched JULO Turbo, an innovative instant virtual credit card product that provides a digital credit limit in just 5 minutes. A unique reengineered onboarding process leveraging digitalized verification, AI based credit scoring, big data and advanced analytics allows customers to get and to start using their virtual credit card within minutes after downloading the JULO app.

We have added a layer of speed to financial inclusion," said Nimish Dwivedi, Chief Business Officer of JULO Group.
