Ninja Van’s Indonesian arm now goes by Ninja Xpress. It doesn’t publish one national rate card. Real per-kg examples: Rp 9,000 for Cilegon-Bogor, Rp 18,500 for Jakarta-Surabaya, up to Rp 78,500 for Jambi-Ternate, per cekresi.com’s published Ninja Xpress rate list (September 2026). Here’s the full breakdown.
How Much Do Ninja Van (Ninja Xpress) Indonesia Shipping Rates Cost in 2026?
Ninja Xpress — the Indonesian brand Ninja Van has operated under since 2015, per its own homepage — prices Reguler service per kilogram by specific route rather than one flat rate. Sampled 2026 examples range from Rp 9,000/kg on short Java routes to Rp 78,500/kg on long cross-island routes, based on cekresi.com’s published Ninja Xpress rate list. Ninja Xpress’s official support pages confirm there is no fixed public rate card — pricing depends on the exact pickup and delivery sub-district (kecamatan).
If you’ve searched “Ninja Van Indonesia” expecting a Ninja Van-branded rate card, the first thing to know is the name: in Indonesia, Ninja Van operates as Ninja Xpress, serving roughly 1,000 hubs and stations nationwide and moving an estimated 2 million parcels a day, according to its own homepage. Same company, different storefront name for this market.
Ninja Xpress’s official support documentation (“Bagaimana cara menghitung dan cek ongkos kirim?”) directs sellers to its own price estimator rather than a static table, because Reguler rates vary by the exact origin and destination sub-district. What follows are real published route examples, not a substitute for checking your specific lane.
Ninja Xpress Reguler rate examples by route — 2026
| Origin | Destination | Rate per kg |
|---|---|---|
| Cilegon | Bogor | Rp 9,000 |
| Malang | Denpasar | Rp 13,000 |
| Bandung | Semarang | Rp 16,000 |
| Blitar | Tangerang | Rp 16,500 |
| Jakarta | Surabaya | Rp 18,500 |
| Kupang | Pasuruan | Rp 40,000 |
| Ambon | Depok | Rp 42,000 |
| Medan | Pontianak | Rp 51,500 |
| Jambi | Ternate | Rp 78,500 |
Source: cekresi.com’s published Ninja Xpress Reguler rate list, checked September 2026. Java-to-Java routes in this sample run Rp 9,000-18,500/kg; routes crossing to Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Maluku, Papua, or eastern Nusa Tenggara run Rp 32,000-78,500/kg. Confirm your exact route at ninjaxpress.co/id-id before setting checkout rates.
Weight-tier estimate — Jakarta to Surabaya (Reguler)
| Billable weight | Estimated rate |
|---|---|
| 1 kg | Rp 18,500 |
| 2 kg | Rp 37,000 |
| 5 kg | Rp 92,500 |
| 10 kg | Rp 185,000 |
Calculated by scaling cekresi.com’s Rp 18,500/kg Jakarta-Surabaya rate linearly by weight. This is an estimate, not a confirmed tiered rate card — Ninja Xpress may apply a base handling fee that a simple per-kg multiple doesn’t capture. Verify the exact figure with Ninja Xpress’s own price estimator before quoting it to customers.
For comparison, J&T Express’s published EZ (Economy) rate for the same Jakarta-Surabaya route is Rp 9,000/kg — roughly half of the Ninja Xpress figure above. See the Indonesia shipping cost calculator guide for J&T, JNE, SiCepat, and Anteraja rates on the same routes.
What Shipping Services Does Ninja Xpress Offer in Indonesia?
Ninja Xpress runs three service tiers, per its official support documentation:
| Service | Coverage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| Sameday | JABODETABEK and select major cities | Delivered the same day pickup succeeds |
| Next-day | JABODETABEK and select major cities | Delivered the day after pickup |
| Reguler | All Indonesian provinces | 1-3 business days, per Ninja Xpress’s homepage estimate |
Reguler is the only tier available nationwide — the rate examples above are all Reguler pricing. Sameday and Next-day are metro-only options, useful for Java-based sellers shipping to Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, and similarly dense urban markets, but they won’t help a seller shipping to Ternate or Jayapura.
There’s no published price premium for Sameday or Next-day over Reguler in Ninja Xpress’s public documentation — check the exact upcharge for your route through the price estimator, since it varies by city pair.
How Is Ninja Xpress Billable Weight Calculated?
Ninja Xpress bills whichever is higher: a package’s actual weight or its volumetric (dimensional) weight, per its own support documentation. Rounding follows a 0.3kg threshold — under 0.3kg over a whole kilogram rounds down, at or above 0.3kg rounds up. Ninja Xpress does not publish the volumetric divisor it uses in that documentation.
Ninja Xpress’s official rounding rule, translated from its support page:
- A package weighing 1.29kg rounds down to 1kg (under the 0.3kg threshold).
- A package weighing 1.32kg rounds up to 2kg (at or above the 0.3kg threshold).
This is the same actual-vs-volumetric principle every major Indonesian courier uses. J&T and JNE publish their volumetric formula as length × width × height (cm) ÷ 5,000, per their published rate documentation. Ninja Xpress’s support page confirms the same actual-vs-volumetric logic but doesn’t state its own divisor — run your package dimensions through a volumetric weight calculator using the 5,000 divisor as a starting estimate, then confirm against Ninja Xpress’s price estimator before you commit to a checkout rate.
Bulky, lightweight items — apparel, phone cases, boxed accessories — are the most common source of a billable weight that’s higher than the bathroom-scale number suggests.
What Are Ninja Xpress COD Fees and When Do Sellers Get Paid?
Ninja Xpress charges a COD handling fee of 3% of the collected amount, with a minimum of Rp 5,000 per shipment, per its official support page. Dashboard Shipper accounts receive COD payouts every Tuesday and Friday. Ninja Biz app users are paid every Monday, with balances updating nightly and a Rp 1,500 transfer fee applied per payout.
COD dominates Shopee and Tokopedia order volume in Indonesia, so this fee stacks on nearly every shipment for most sellers.
Worked example — Rp 300,000 COD order:
| Cost component | Amount |
|---|---|
| COD fee (3% of Rp 300,000) | Rp 9,000 |
| Minimum COD fee threshold | Rp 5,000 (does not apply here — 3% exceeds it) |
| Base shipping rate | Varies by route (see rate table above) |

Some third-party aggregator sites cite a 2.5-3% range rather than a flat 3% — treat Ninja Xpress’s documented rate above as the baseline and confirm your account’s exact figure in your dashboard, since negotiated or promotional rates can differ.
Payout timing depends on which platform you use to manage shipments:
- Dashboard Shipper users: COD funds transfer to your registered bank account every Tuesday and Friday.
- Ninja Biz app users: balances update nightly; payouts run every Monday, minus a Rp 1,500 transfer fee per transaction. Minimum transferable amount is Rp 10,000.
If COD cash flow timing affects your working capital, factor the Tuesday/Friday (Dashboard) or Monday-only (Ninja Biz) cycle into your inventory reordering schedule — it’s slower than same-week daily settlement some sellers assume.
How Do Indonesian Sellers Access Ninja Xpress Rates?
Three paths, depending on shipment volume and whether you sell through a marketplace:
Marketplace-integrated checkout. Shopee, Tokopedia, Lazada, and Bukalapak sellers can select Ninja Xpress as a native shipping option at checkout. These rates are frequently subsidized or negotiated at the platform level, so they can run lower than the direct-account Reguler examples above. Always compare your actual marketplace checkout rate against the direct rate before assuming Ninja Xpress is expensive.
Dashboard Shipper account. For sellers shipping under roughly 250 packages a month, Ninja Xpress’s homepage directs signup to a standard Dashboard Shipper account, giving access to the price estimator, COD tracking, and the Tuesday/Friday payout cycle described above.
Ninja Biz app. For sellers shipping over roughly 250 packages a month, per the same homepage segmentation, Ninja Biz is the higher-volume account path, with nightly balance updates and Monday-only payouts.
