Payouts stuck: OCBC IDR bank rejected after entity change to PT PETRA HORIZON VENTURES — need Payments/KYC review

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.

We finally solved the problem. I'm sharing the error that various Airbnb support technicians hadn't identified, except for the last technician who, thanks to a hunch, was able to help us. The problem was the Swift extension. The Swift code must be entered as 11 digits, including the three values ​​that identify the branch.   

 

The instructions for completing the form indicate the Swift code is 8 to 11 digits. For the payment to work, the Swift code must be 11 digits.

 

Thanks for all support

I never "claimed" anything @Maple14.

 

 I simply said since you and two other Hosts (@Daniele1414 & @Laura7976 ) are all having payout issues with the same bank (OCBC) that it may have something to do with OCBC and their possible AML issues and security measures. 🤔

 

I wish you well it getting it sorted out.

 

In realtà da una ricerca di vari ticket aperti su Airbnb sembra essere un problema che accade a tanti host in diversi paesi. Non credo sia un problema di banca (OCBC) ma di Airbnb

Actually, from a search of various open tickets on Airbnb, it seems to be a problem that occurs to many hosts in different countries. I don't think it's a problem with the bank (OCBC), but with Airbnb.

@Laura7976 @Daniele1414 How long have your payouts being held by Airbnb? 

Has anyone got their money from Airbnb? It has been over a month and they still reject our bank account and close our cases with no resolution in sight! 

Also our case is unsolved

@Laura7976 Ours got solved. You just need to keep trying to reach someone from "payments"

Good luck!

@Laura7976 I'm sorry to hear you are still having some issues with your payouts. Did you contact the Airbnb Support team about it already? What did they say so far?

@Laura7976 

Yay!  Thanks for letting us know here what the actual issue waas it is bound to help other Hosts!

 

 

Thank you @Laura7976 for coming back to let us know it was all resolved, and how you solved it! I second Joan, this will be very handy for future hosts who may find themselves in a similar situation. 😊

hi Thank you. My Indonesian bank is Mandiri and the branch code is 5 digits not 3.. so its hard to make the swift code 11 digits. my bank gave me the 8 digit one but i searched online and found a generic one with XXX at the end- its for jakarta but maybe it will work. It is january and I havent been paid since August and noone seems to be able to help me. Booking dot com platform accepted it without a problem yet airbnb is rejecting it each time. Its very frustrating least to say. 

@Gunawan7 

 

Maybe try this: BMRIIDJAXXX

 

You can also contact the bank and ask what the last 3 characters should be:

 

BMRI - Bank Mandiri's bank code

ID - Country Code Indonesia

JA - Jakarta location

XXX - Indicates the primary office (no specific branch)

 

 

 

It has not worked. Is there anyone at all in the Airbnb team that can help? I havent been paid since August 2025. I have tried all. this is a legit account and booking dot com send payouts immediately no issue. I tried the 11 digit SWIFT, I tried updating location, 

 

Anyone out there who can help????

 

 

@Gunawan7 

 

I don't know anything about indonesian banks but you might try asking other Hosts  in your local Airbnb Host club. See left side of CC menu; scroll to bottom. 

 

From what I'm reading though, the branch code is only 3 digits not 5. I would ask the branch of your bank again for the 11-digit full code.

@Joan2709 ok I will ask again, 

bank code they gave me is 3 digits but branch code is 5.

 

Thanks
