Decision making on the use of a shariah-based e-wallet by Indonesian consumers

This study integrates the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) with the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to analyze consumers' decisions to use a Shariah-based e-wallet in Indonesia. With convenience sampling, a hundred samples were calculated by using SEM-PLS analysis. It found that only perceived trust and intention influenced consumers' decisions to use a Shariah-based e-wallet, while perceived ease of use, usefulness, enjoyment, attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control did not. Perceived ease of use and usefulness influenced consumers' intentions but not the decision to use Sharia-based e-wallets. Thus, intention does not necessarily describe actual behavior. Consumers feel that the Sharia-based e-wallet is not as easy and useful as other e-wallets they mostly use, like Go-pay, Shopee-pay, and OVO. Other implications and some recommendations are discussed further in this study.
