Abstract

The adoption of digital payment systems, such as QRIS (Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard), is becoming increasingly relevant in this modern era. However, there is a notable lack of research focusing specifically on the adoption of these systems within traditional settings. Thus, this thesis addresses this gap by Examining the Influence of Perceived Risk and User-Friendliness on the Usage Intention of QRIS in Bersehati Traditional Market, the largest traditional market in Manado. Involving 100 respondents, the research uses the Purposive Sampling Technique and analyzes using SPSS 29 software. The findings reveal that both Perceived Risk and User-Friendliness influence the intention to use QRIS. However, User-Friendliness has a greater influence on usage intention compared to Perceived Risk. These results underscore the importance of addressing perceived risks and enhancing user-friendliness as key strategies in promoting the widespread adoption of QRIS as a digital payment system.   Keywords: Perceived Risk, User-Friendliness, Usage Intention, QRIS, Digital Payment Systems

Abstract

This study aims to test the influence of consumer engagement and social media marketing towards purchase intention partially and simultaneously, data were collected through a questionnaire method and because the population are unknown therefore this study uses the Lemeshow formula, rounded up to 100 sample. The data analysis technique used is multiple linear regression analysis which serves to see the effect. The results in this study indicate that both consumer engagement and social media marketing play significant roles in influencing Purchase Intention. When analyzed together (simultaneously), these factors have a combined effect that strongly impacts consumers' intentions to purchase. Separately (partially), each factor also demonstrates a distinct influence on purchase intention. Customer Engagement motivates consumers to interact more actively with the brand, fostering a deeper connection and increasing their likelihood to buy. Meanwhile, Social Media Marketing enhances brand visibility and appeal through strategic campaigns, attracting consumers and encouraging purchase decisions. The combined and individual impacts of these factors emphasize their importance in driving purchase intentions.   Keyword: Consumer Engagement, Social Media Marketing, Purchase Intention
