Indonesian giants join the Chiliz ecosystem as the company continues to strengthen its presence across Southeast Asia.
JAKARTA, 31 March 2026:— The Chiliz Group, the world’s leading blockchain provider for the sports and entertainment industry, and Persija Jakarta, one of Indonesia’s most historic and successful football clubs, today announced the launch of the upcoming Persija Fan Token, further strengthening Chiliz’s rapidly expanding footprint across Southeast Asia.
The Persija Fan Token will give holders access to a range of engagement opportunities, including voting rights on club decisions, exclusive content, VIP experiences, gamified rewards, and digital collectibles. It is designed to bring the passion of the Jakmania – widely regarded as one of Asia’s largest and most fervent supporter groups – into the digital era, connecting fans in Jakarta and around the world with the club they love.
With this partnership, Persija joins a growing roster of Southeast Asian football clubs in the Chiliz ecosystem, including Persib Bandung, Bali United FC and Johor Darul Ta’zim. Indonesia represents one of the most passionate football markets in the world, with an estimated 200 million football fans across the archipelago – making the country a strategic priority for Chiliz’s expansion in the region.
Alexandre Dreyfus, CEO of Chiliz and Socios.com, commented: “ We’re welcoming one of Southeast Asia’s most iconic football clubs into the Chiliz ecosystem at a time when the demand for real utility has never been higher. Persija’s incredible supporter base are exactly the kind of community that Fan Tokens were built for. This is about giving fans a real voice in their club’s journey, and we’re proud to be doing it with a partner of Persija’s stature and ambition.”
Mohamad Prapanca, Persija President, said: “Persija Jakarta has always been about our connection with our fans. The Jakmania are among the most passionate supporters in world football, and this Fan Token partnership gives us new ways to engage with them: not just in Jakarta, but around the globe. We’re excited to work with Chiliz to create meaningful experiences for Jakmania and to lead the way for clubs across our region.”
