    INDONESIA-BASED Traveloka - whose name translates to "travel world" - is ramping up growth beyond its core online travel booking platform.

    The 10-year-old company has taken its "buy now, pay later" (BNPL) service to the e-commerce realm, while also expanding in food delivery. All of this fits into its broader vision of a "lifestyle super app".
