Abstract

The development of digital technology has transformed marketing strategies toward experience-based digital branding, with TikTok emerging as a dominant platform among Generation Z. In Indonesia, the large population of Generation Z makes TikTok a strategic medium for digital marketing through influencer collaborations, viral challenges, and user-generated content. However, existing studies largely focus on quantitative indicators and provide limited insight into consumers’ subjective experiences.This study aims to explore how Generation Z interprets and responds to TikTok marketing strategies as a form of digital branding. A qualitative phenomenological approach was employed by conducting in-depth interviews with 10–15 Generation Z informants aged 18–25 who actively use TikTok and engage with brand content, supported by non-participant observation. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that TikTok marketing significantly influences Generation Z’s consumption behavior, particularly through viral content and influencer trust. High levels of engagement enhance brand awareness and emotional attachment, while repeated exposure to trends encourages impulse buying and consumption as a form of social identity. These results highlight TikTok’s effectiveness as a digital branding platform and offer practical implications for brands and MSMEs in developing authentic and engaging marketing strategies.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of content type, content format, and event-based posting on the engagement rate of the Instagram account @banksyariahindonesia. A quantitative approach was applied using content analysis of 200 posts selected through purposive sampling. The dependent variable was engagement rate, while content type and content format served as independent variables, and event-based posting functioned as a moderating variable. Data were analyzed using dummy-based multiple linear regression and moderated regression analysis. The results indicate that promotional content significantly increases engagement rate, whereas content format does not show a significant effect when examined without contextual considerations. Additionally, event-based posting was found to increase engagement rate and moderate the relationship between promotional content and video format with engagement rate. These results indicate that the effectiveness of digital marketing strategies for Islamic banking is driven more by contextual relevance and timing rather than by the structural form of the content itself.

Abstract

The rapid digitalization of Indonesia's financial sector has created unprecedented opportunities and challenges for Sharia-compliant institutions seeking to expand their market reach while adhering to Islamic principles. This literature review examines the current trends and challenges in digital marketing practices among Indonesian Islamic financial institutions from 2024 to 2025. Through a systematic analysis of 45 peer-reviewed articles, regulatory documents, and industry reports, this study identifies key developments in Sharia-compliant digital marketing strategies, including the adoption of artificial intelligence, social media engagement, and mobile-first approaches. The findings reveal that while Indonesian Islamic financial institutions have successfully leveraged digital platforms to enhance customer acquisition and retention, significant challenges persist in ensuring full Sharia compliance in digital advertising, managing cybersecurity risks, and addressing the digital divide among target demographics. The research identifies four primary trends: increased use of Islamic fintech partnerships, personalized halal investment recommendations through AI, community-driven social media campaigns, and blockchain-based transparent financial products. Key challenges include regulatory ambiguity regarding digital Sharia compliance, competition from conventional digital banks, limited digital literacy among traditional Islamic banking customers, and the need for specialized talent in both Islamic finance and digital marketing. This study contributes to the growing body of knowledge on Islamic digital finance by providing a comprehensive overview of current practices and offering strategic recommendations.
