Abstract

This Student Creativity Program (PKM) aims to increase the understanding of students of the Faculty of Social Sciences at Makassar State University about the role of the Ombudsman in public services. With a focus on training and interactive activities, the PKM aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the role of the Ombudsman as well as optimal ways of monitoring and supervision related to public services. Before the PKM, only 40% of students understood the role of the Ombudsman. After participating in PKM activities, students' understanding increased significantly to 75%. This result reflects the positive impact of PKM on increasing students' awareness of the role of the Ombudsman. Students also appreciated this activity, considering it very useful for increasing the role and supervision of the Ombudsman in public services. Thus, this PKM not only contributed to students' understanding but also taught them to participate in ensuring the quality of public services through the role of the Ombudsman.

Abstract

Paylater services have grown significantly in Indonesia as a practical payment alternative in the digital era. However, along with its growth, various challenges related to consumer protection have emerged, especially in terms of transparency of fees, interest, and personal data management. This research aims to analyze the aspects of consumer protection in paylater services in Indonesia, as well as identify legal gaps that exist in applicable regulations, including the Consumer Protection Law, Electronic Information and Transactions law, and Financial Services Authority Regulations. The method used is a normative approach with analysis of laws and regulations and related literature. The results show that current regulations have not specifically regulated paylater services, resulting in a legal vacuum in consumer protection, including a lack of cost transparency and adequate supervision. This research is relevant to encourage regulatory improvements, stricter supervision by financial services authorities, and consumer education about their rights so that paylater services can operate with the principles of fairness and better protection.                       Keywords: Paylater Service, Consumer Protection, Legal Regulation
