Using a descriptive qualitative approach and data collection techniques in the form of interviews and observations of MSME players, this study reveals the low level of literacy and adoption of sharia fintech even though this area has a majority Muslim population and has great potential in the development of Islamic finance. The results show This study concludes that the level of inclusion and literacy of Islamic fintech among MSMEs in Deli Serdang Regency remains relatively low. Although the potential for Islamic fintech use is significant, understanding of the basic concepts, principles of sharia, and benefits of Islamic fintech is not yet evenly distributed. Islamic fintech plays a crucial role in supporting transaction efficiency, financial record-keeping, and market expansion for MSMEs.
