However, effort expectancy, performance expectancy, and customer satisfaction have a significant effect on behavioral intention. Perceived enjoyment and performance expectancy significantly influence customer satisfaction. On the other hand, effort expectancy does not significantly affect behavioral intention through customer satisfaction, while perceived enjoyment and performance expectancy significantly affect behavioral intention through customer satisfaction

The rapid development of technology has significantly influenced various economic sectors, including finance. Digitalization has introduced opportunities to create more efficient, transparent, and inclusive financial services. Within Islamic finance, technological advancements address challenges such as limited access to Sharia-compliant financial services and complexities in applying Sharia principles practically. One notable innovation is Sharia-based financial technology (fintech), which combines Islamic values with modern technology to provide accessible, ethical, and sustainable financial solutions. This study explores the potential and challenges of Sharia fintech in Indonesia, a country with the largest Muslim population globally. Sharia fintech, including crowdfunding, peer-to-peer lending, and halal digital payment platforms, promotes financial inclusion while adhering to Islamic principles. However, its growth faces regulatory hurdles, consumer protection issues, and a lack of public literacy about Sharia-compliant financial products. The research highlights the role of the government and regulatory bodies such as the Financial Services Authority (OJK) in providing a supportive framework, including legal certainty, technological infrastructure, and public education initiatives. The findings emphasize that effective regulations and strategic government support are critical to fostering Sharia fintech as a pillar of the Islamic economy. With strengthened collaboration between stakeholders, Sharia fintech can contribute significantly to financial inclusion and sustainable economic development in Indonesia.

This article discusses alternative Islamic finance as a solution without usury in the contemporary era. The background to this research focuses on the negative impact of usury practices in the conventional financial system and increasing public awareness of the importance of ethical transactions. The aim of this research is to analyze the influence of sharia financial products on people's financial welfare and to evaluate the level of understanding and adoption of sharia financial products in society. This research uses quantitative methods with descriptive and inferential statistical approaches, which include surveys of various community groups who use sharia financial products. The research results show that Islamic financial products such as murabahah, musyarakah, and mudarabah not only encourage more ethical investments, but also increase local economic growth and support sustainable development. However, the main challenge faced is the public's low understanding of sharia principles, which hinders optimizing the potential of this sector. Financial technology (fintech) and collaboration between sharia financial institutions and the government are identified as important factors in expanding access and increasing financial inclusion. In conclusion, despite challenges such as a lack of understanding and the need for better regulation, Islamic finance has great potential to become a key pillar in a fairer and more sustainable global financial system. This research provides recommendations that more efforts should be made to improve education, transparency and collaboration to strengthen the Islamic finance sector in the future.

This study aims to determine the effect of fintech, the amount of money in circulation, interest rates and economic growth on the analysis of digital economic trends on monetary policy in Indonesia. There are four variables in this study, namely fintech, the amount of money in circulation, interest rates and economic growth. The analysis method used is Vector Autoregression with the Impluse Response Function test or abbreviated as IRF and the Forecast Error Variance Decomposition test commonly abbreviated as FEVD, stationarity test, cointegration test, lag structure stability test and optimal lag length test. There is a contribution from each variable to the variable itself and other variables, according to the results of the Vector Autoregression study with a lag basis of 2. In addition, the results of the Vector Autoregression analysis show that the past variable (t-1) contributes to the current variable both to the variable itself and to other variables. The results of the analysis show that there is a reciprocal relationship between the variables. By using response function analysis, we can see if there is a response from other variables to changes in one variable in the short, medium, or long term. In addition, we know that the stability of all variables is formed in the short, medium, and long term. According to the Variance Decomposition Analysis, factors such as Fintech and Money Supply contribute the most to the variable itself. However, other variables that have the greatest influence on the variable itself and are supported by other variables in the short, medium, and long term are economic growth and interest rates are most influenced by Fintech.
