We’re Hosts in Indonesia. After switching our beneficiary from PT Maple Leaf Estates to PT PETRA HORIZON VENTURES, Airbnb accepts the OCBC IDR payout, shows Pending/Verified, then flips to “update payout method” and rejects it. OCBC confirms our details and SWIFT NISPIDJAXXX, bank code 028, and branch code are correct.
Over 2.5 weeks, 8+ cases, 10+ agents, and one “banking” contact later, the case keeps getting closed with “remove and re-add.” We need an internal Payments/KYC manual verification so accrued payouts can be released.
If you’ve resolved this loop:
- Did Payments/KYC need a specific document (NIB/NPWP, deed, UBO IDs) or an OCBC confirmation letter?
- Did assigning the company taxpayer to the payout method fix it?
- Any moderator who can route this to Payments/KYC, please DM.
- Screenshots and OCBC confirmation available.
The case has been assigned to yet another case manager that claimed the issue was resolved only to discover a few hours later that once again they rejected our back account with OCBC! This is getting our of control and no one from Airbnb is cooperating in providing clear reason on why the account is getting invalid meanwhile we have been without payment for almost 3 weeks! Staff salaries are on hold and our entire operation that we relied on Airbnb for is in red alert!
PLEASE HELP!
Can you clarify?
Are you saying you changed the listing owner name to a different business name and then encountered difficulty with payment processing?
We changed the legal entity that owns the listings to PT. PETRA HORIZON VENTURES. I’m still the director. Airbnb support reset our Business Details, and I re-entered the new company name, number, and address to match our OCBC records.
Since then, every IDR bank payout we add verifies, then flips to ‘update payout method’ and gets rejected a few hours later. This happened on two separate OCBC accounts.
Inputs used (exact):
Holder: PT. PETRA HORIZON VENTURES
Address: JALAN MERTANADI NO 86 E, KEROBOKAN KELOD, BADUNG, KAB. 80363
SWIFT: ** | Bank code: ** | Branch: **
Method: Indonesia → Bank account in IDR
We’ve opened 10+ cases. Each was closed with ‘remove and re-add,’ which we’ve done multiple times.

Does the bank account you are using for payouts EXACTLY match the business name on your Airbnb account?
Yes, everything matches of course.
@Laura7976 It's been almost a month and Airbnb still has not paid us! I am running out of options and they keep saying their engineers are working on it with no timeline! This is absolutely ridiculous
Perhaps one of the moderators can forward this to the appropriate Teams at Airbnb, since you both have the issue with the same bank?
It could be an issue with different Airbnb departments?:
KYC (business details)
Payouts?
@Joan2709 thanks. Airbnb had admitted theres a system glitch and claims engineers are working on to resolve this issue but they refused to provide a timeline. Meanwhile our entire business (staff, utilities and all operational expenses) are in disaster mode because we haven’t received any payment from Airbnb for almost a month now
