Agil Al IdrusVP of Product, Metro Reload Group & Cashplus

I build the apps people use to pay, book and travel.

VP of Product at Metro Reload Group and Cashplus in Indonesia. I started in customer service seven years ago; today I lead product for platforms that move about IDR 700 billion a month.

Selected work

Cashplus is my main product. OpenH2H and PUAS were part-time projects for sister companies in 2026, and Metro Reload is where my career began.

Best Deal Plus: Every package shows the market price next to the Cashplus price, ordered by price, so customers compare in one glance instead of checking suppliers themselves.
Main role

Building and scaling a consumer payments platform

Proposed to the C-level and designed from scratch as the sole Technical Product Manager on its founding team, then scaled with provider routing, partner integrations, flight and travel ticketing, white-label services and remittance.

Beyond the case studies

Three threads that run through my work, each backed by something I shipped or still run.

Travel

  • Added flight and travel ticketing to Cashplus with MMBC, and owned the booking journey.
  • Signed 30 travel agents and tour leaders for RoamingPlus, approaching each one in person. Travel agents were a new segment and are now a company focus.
  • Delivered PUAS, a platform for Umrah services across Indonesia and Saudi Arabia.

AI in how I build

  • Built TawafiqHub, my own SaaS for Umrah travel operators, with a voice AI agent that answers pilgrims’ questions. It is live, built on the Claude API, OpenAI GPT and ElevenLabs.
  • Use Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and Claude Code every day to draft PRDs, write SQL, generate test cases and build prototypes.
  • Directed an AI coding agent to build this site in English, Indonesian and Arabic.

How I run product

  • Test before scaling: A/B tests on pricing, promotions and flows, with engagement and retention tracked in Firebase.
  • Review every launch at 30, 60 and 90 days, and keep risky changes behind maker-checker approval.
  • Lead a team of 8 and mentor the product managers. I still talk to customers directly and join field surveys.

From customer service to VP of Product

I began in 2019 handling failed transactions, disputes and refunds. That experience taught me to connect customer problems with provider behaviour and operational constraints. Today, as VP of Product, I lead product across Metro Reload Group and Cashplus with a team of eight.
