NusaTrip.com: Great Indonesia flight booking site
I've been having issues with AirAsia not accepting my credit card for flights. It's an intermittent problem, and happens more when I book a flight for a friend (they don't have credit cards).
Enter NusaTrip.com They show up in Skyscanner, and often have a cheaper price than the LCC sites. The price is usually the same though.
Best of all, I've not had one issue with credit cards using their site. Highly recommended. Site is usually easier to use than the LCC site.
Another bonus: they don't add credit card surcharge fees!
There's another site called Tiket.com (indonesian spelling), which I haven't used but is similar.

They do, at least used to. I booked with them directly last year and in the end had to cancel the flight. It ended up being quite painstaking process and I really wished I had used an OTA that time. I usually use Nusatrip.

Not sure if they made the change recently, but I tried to confirm a Citilink booking today, and the first time it failed saying payment declined. I decided to try again using the "manage booking" with the held itinerary sent to my email, and this time with the same exact payment info, it went through. In this case the price was about 121,000 IDR less booking direct vs using NusaTrip or Tiket.

I have mentioned Airpaz above (been recommended by one Indo friend of mine), but recently I had a very unpleasant experience with them, resulting in money & time loss (and could have been much worse if I didn't check my spam folder). Basically I made a booking, approved payment with 3D Secure, booking got confirmed, I got PNR, made a printout and thought I am all good. Yet, I did not see a letter from Airpaz, which I wanted to forward to TripIt in order not to input data manually. Checked spam folder, and to my utter surprise saw the e-mail informing me about my reservation being cancelled (!). Had to rebook with another agency, and by that time ticket price increased. To make things worse, Airpaz charged my card (not just made a hold) and processed refund as a separate transaction, so I lost money also on currency conversion (thanks to Citi, they agreed to compensate me the difference).
Won't be using Airpaz ever again and do not advise to use them.
