Abstract

This research endeavors to ascertain the impact of financial literacy, financial inclusion, fintech payment gateways, and digital marketing on the financial performance of MSMEs in Central Java. Employing a quantitative research design, this study utilizes primary data. The population under investigation comprises 193,932 MSME actors within the Central Java region. A purposive sampling method was applied, resulting in a total of 100 respondents. Data collection instruments were designed using a likert scale, and the analytical procedures were performed utilizing WarpPLS version 7.0. The results disclose that financial literacy imparts a positive and statistically significant effect on financial performance. Conversely, financial inclusion fails to exhibit a significant association with financial performance. Moreover, the adoption of fintech payment gateways manifests a positive and significant influence, while digital marketing reveals a negative yet statistically insignificant effect on financial performance. Collectively, the concurrent impact of financial literacy, payment gateways, and digital marketing has been empirically validated to exert a favorable influence on financial performance, as indicated by an R-squared value of 69.7%
