Abstract

The rapid expansion of digital payment technologies has transformed financial transaction behavior, particularly in emerging urban environments. However, adoption decisions are influenced not only by technological functionality but also by psychological factors. This study examines the effect of perceived ease of use on digital payment usage decisions, with trust positioned as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach was employed using survey data collected from 96 digital payment users in Kupang City, Indonesia. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that perceived ease of use has a significant positive effect on trust (β = 0.870, p < 0.001) and usage decision (β = 0.612, p < 0.001). Trust also significantly influences usage decision (β = 0.295, p = 0.020) and partially mediates the relationship between perceived ease of use and usage decision. The model demonstrates substantial explanatory power, with R² values of 0.757 for trust and 0.776 for usage decision, and a good model fit (SRMR = 0.042). These findings extend the Technology Acceptance Model by demonstrating that usability influences digital payment adoption through both direct functional pathways and indirect trust-building mechanisms. The study highlights the strategic importance of integrating usability and trust to promote digital payment adoption in emerging urban contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of social media, online prices, and customer reviews on purchasing decisions in e-commerce with brand image as a moderating variable. The research method used is a quantitative approach with an associative research type. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires to consumers who have made purchases on e-commerce platforms, using a purposive sampling technique. Data analysis was conducted using the Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM) method and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA) to test the role of moderating variables. The results show that social media, online prices, and customer reviews partially and simultaneously have a positive and significant influence on purchasing decisions. Social media can increase purchasing interest through interactive and informative content, online prices are a primary consideration in choosing a product, while customer reviews play a role in building consumer trust. In addition, brand image is proven to moderate the relationship between social media, online prices, and customer reviews on purchasing decisions by strengthening the influence of all three variables. The conclusion of this study is that purchasing decisions in e-commerce are influenced by a combination of digital marketing factors and brand perceptions. Therefore, business actors are advised to optimize the use of social media, set competitive prices, manage customer reviews well, and build a strong brand image to increase consumer trust and loyalty.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of advertising and service quality on the purchase decision of Traveloka online flight tickets among the people of Kupang, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. A quantitative approach with a causal design was employed. The population consisted of all Kupang residents who had ever purchased flight tickets through Traveloka, and a sample of 96 respondents was determined using the Rao Purba formula. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression, t-tests, F-tests, and coefficient of determination. The results show that advertising has a positive and significant partial effect on purchase decisions (t = 2.801, p < 0.05), and service quality also has a positive and significant partial effect (t = 2.693, p < 0.05). Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence purchase decisions (F = 7.270, p < 0.05). However, the adjusted R² value is only 0.117, indicating that advertising and service quality explain just 11.7% of the variance in purchase decisions. Descriptive analysis shows that respondents perceive both advertising and service quality as high, with mean index scores of 87.3 and 82.6 respectively. The study concludes that while advertising and service quality are important determinants, other factors such as price, trust, and word-of-mouth likely play larger roles. Traveloka should maintain its advertising effectiveness and improve responsiveness to customer complaints. Future research should include additional variables to better explain purchase decisions.
