Abstract

In this paper, we extend the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model to examine factors that shape the intention of Muslims in Indonesia to pay zakat online. In the analysis, we include performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, trust in zakat institutions, zakat literacy and Islamic religiosity as potential factors. The study employs primary data gathered from 734 respondents and uses the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) method for data analysis. The main result shows that facilitating conditions, performance expectancy, trust in zakat institutions, social influence, and zakat literacy influence the intention to pay zakat online. However, effort expectancy and Islamic religiosity turn out to be insignificant determinants of the intention to pay online zakat. The findings suggest that zakat stakeholders must enhance trust and intensify education about zakat. Zakat organizations must also improve the quality of the online zakat system, highlight the benefits of zakat online, and optimize the use of social media to increase zakat collection through digital channels.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the factors that influence the intention of youths/millennials in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, to invest in Peer to Peer (P2P) lending. Due to the relative newness of P2P lending in Indonesia, the framework utilised is the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and the study involves around 400 youths, the majority of whom are Muslims. Further, the study employs Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) and logistic regression to analyse the influence of socio-demographic variables (gender, religion, marital status, education, employment, religion and income) on the intention to invest through P2P lending. The results of the study indicate that intention to invest in P2P lending is positively correlated and influenced by the attitude variable, which is itself influenced by factors including perceived ease of use, knowledge and trust in P2P lending. The results imply that the potential of youth to invest in P2P lending might be enhanced by improving technology (ease of use), literacy and trust in P2P lending. Moreover, it is suggested that those most interested in and more likely to invest through P2P lending are Muslims, have higher education and have higher incomes. With better literacy and marketing programmes, these groups could be targeted by P2P lending platforms to become potential investors. Lastly, the findings are expected to contribute to Islamic finance concepts and practices, particularly in the context of Indonesia.
