Abstract

The rapid growth of social media has intensified the use of influencer marketing in the fast fashion industry, reshaping how consumers form purchase intentions. Despite its widespread application, empirical evidence on influencer effectiveness in the Malaysian fast fashion context remains limited. This study aims to examine the influence of key influencer attributes: trustworthiness, credibility, expertise, and familiarity, on consumer purchase intention, using Padini Holdings Berhad as a case study. A quantitative research design was employed, with data collected from 150 respondents through a structured questionnaire. Multiple regression analysis was conducted to test the proposed relationships. The results indicate that the research model explains 74.8% of the variance in purchase intention (R² = 0.748). Familiarity of the influencer emerged as the strongest predictor (? = 0.414, p 0.01), followed by expertise (? = 0.258, p 0.01) and credibility (? = 0.218, p 0.05). In contrast, trustworthiness showed a positive but statistically insignificant effect. These findings suggest that emotional connection, perceived knowledge, and credibility play a more critical role than trustworthiness in driving purchase intention within the fast fashion sector. Practically, the study highlights the importance of selecting influencers who are familiar, knowledgeable, and relatable to enhance marketing effectiveness.

Abstract

Modern innovation is expanding rapidly in Malaysia in line with current developments and practices. Consequently, cashless payment methods are increasingly preferred by the community for daily transactions. Previous observations indicate that students tend to purchase more non-essential items when using cashless payment methods. This behavior occurs because payments made through cards or mobile devices are perceived as more effortless compared to traditional cash transactions. Therefore, this study examines the impact of cashless payment adoption on the spending behavior of university students in Malaysia. Specifically, the study aims to analyze how convenience, consumer habits, social influence, and perceived security influence students’ budgeting practices, financial discipline, and impulsive spending behavior. Data were collected from 153 undergraduate students enrolled in public and private universities through an online survey administered via Google Forms. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS, including descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, and regression analysis. The findings provide important insights for educators and fintech companies in developing financial education programs tailored to the cashless economy.
