TL;DR
Visa on arrival costs 500,000 IDR (~$32 USD) per person, cash accepted; autogates are fast but may need ~5 min to activate after payment. Fast track service with an agent costs about $25 USD per person.
Arrived in the morning, nobody checked duty-free purchases (2 bottles of whiskey, 2 cartons of cigarettes). Paid for the visa in the regular queue, then an agent offered fast track — $50 for two people ($25 each) — straight to baggage claim. Waited about 40 minutes for luggage.
First arrival in Bali: landed 11:30, already in a taxi by 12:15. Paid visa fee in cash — $96 for three people ($32 each). No queues, went through autogates, though gates took about 5 minutes to activate — likely waiting for the visa to sync in the system. Luggage was already on the belt, transfer was waiting with a sign outside.
Arrived from Bangkok, was in a taxi within half an hour. Paid visa fee in cash — $96 for three people. Went through the autogate with no issues, luggage came out quickly — within 5 minutes.
