Scale indicators11 records

Recent moves16 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Regional players

• Islamic Relief Indonesia: Indonesian chapter of Islamic Relief Worldwide, an international Muslim humanitarian NGO. Competes with LAZISNU for international Muslim donor mindshare and corporate Islamic CSR, while operating in adjacent humanitarian and development verticals.

Emerging players

• Global Wakaf: Indonesia-focused Wakaf (endowment) platform enabling cash and productive Wakaf management. Directly intersects with LAZISNU's Wakaf Tunai product on endowment-style recurring giving, but operates as a specialized emerging player rather than a full-stack LAZ.
• Sedekah Rombongan: Community-driven Indonesian charity platform focused on collective Sedekah crowdfunding and volunteer-led distribution. Niche but growing overlap with LAZISNU's community-led GTM motion and grassroots donor acquisition model.

Broad incumbents

• BAZNAS (Badan Amil Zakat Nasional): The Indonesian government-appointed national Zakat authority, operating as a broad incumbent across all 34 provinces with a national mandate. While structurally distinct (quasi-governmental), BAZNAS directly competes with LAZISNU for individual muzakki and corporate CSR flows.

Direct peers

• Rumah Zakat: Established Indonesian LAZ running a digital philanthropy platform with multi-program pillars (education, health, economy) similar to LAZISNU's five-pillar structure. Directly competes for individual and corporate ZISWAF donors nationwide.
• Lazismu: Official Zakat, Infak, and Sedekah institution of Muhammadiyah, Indonesia's second-largest Islamic organization. Operates the same ZISWAF model, digital platform, and community-led fundraising motion targeting the same muzakki base — the closest head-to-head competitor to LAZISNU.
• Dompet Dhuafa: One of Indonesia's largest LAZ institutions with a digital-first Zakat, Infak, Sedekah, and Wakaf platform. Comparable product portfolio (Zakat calculator, multi-payment methods, campaign fundraising) and overlapping donor audience, but rooted in a different organizational lineage than NU.
• ACT (Aksi Cepat Tanggap): Major Indonesian humanitarian and philanthropic platform with strong digital fundraising and disaster-response programs overlapping LAZISNU's NU CARE DAMAI and humanitarian pillars. Competes for the same Indonesian Muslim donor pool across ZISWAF and campaign giving.
• Yatim Mandiri: Indonesian LAZ with a focused Zakat distribution model targeting orphaned and underprivileged children, with parallel programs in economic empowerment and education. Comparable operational model with similar donor-segment targeting.
• PKPU (Pos Keadilan Peduli Umat): Established Indonesian humanitarian foundation running Zakat, Infak, and Sedekah collection alongside social programs (education, health, community development) — directly comparable in mission and product mix to LAZISNU.
