The development of information technology has transformed trade from traditional markets to digital platforms, including Cash on Delivery (COD) payment systems. This study analyzes the integration of the COD system with the istishna contract in online transactions (specifically on Shopee), its implementation mechanisms, and its validity according to Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh muamalah). The research method used a descriptive qualitative approach through digital observation and literature review. The focus of the study was on pre-order or custom product transactions made after a specification agreement between the buyer (mustashni') and seller (shani'). The results showed that the COD system is valid in the istishna contract because it allows for final payment upon receipt of the goods. This is in accordance with Sharia law as long as the product specifications are clear, the price is transparent, and the buyer's right to khiyar is fulfilled to ensure the goods conform to the contract. As long as it is free from riba (usury), gharar (gharar), and tadlis (tadlis), the COD method in istishna transactions reflects fairness, openness, and benefits for both parties in the digital economy ecosystem.

The digital transformation of payment systems has become essential for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to improve transaction efficiency and expand market accessibility. This community service program was conducted to introduce and implement the use of QRIS through the Dana Bisnis application for four MSMEs located in the Makam Raja-Raja Imogiri tourism area Yogyakarta : Warung Wahyu, Warmindo Babe, Warung Pecel Bu Yani, and Warung Pecel Bu Elti. Initially, all MSMEs relied solely on cash transactions, leading to difficulties in financial recording and limited access to digital financial services. The program consisted of several stages, including on-site surveys, problem identification, explanation of digital payment benefits, training on QRIS registration and usage, and continuous assistance during the transition process. The results indicate a significant improvement in MSMEs’ understanding of digital payment systems and a gradual shift towards non-cash transactions. Evaluation findings show that approximately 60% of daily transactions were conducted via QRIS, and business owners reported benefits such as simplified bookkeeping, faster payment processing, and enhanced transaction security. This program demonstrates that QRIS-based digital payment systems can be effectively implemented in traditional MSMEs through proper mentoring and hands-on guidance. The initiative also plays a strategic role in promoting financial inclusion and strengthening MSME competitiveness in tourism areas. Continued efforts remain necessary, particularly in enhancing digital literacy and expanding access to supporting technology to ensure equitable adoption of digital payment systems.

This study conducts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to examine how key dimensions of digital service quality—namely system quality, ease of use, perceived value, and payment availability—shape customer loyalty among Generation Z culinary consumers, with customer satisfaction functioning as the mediating variable. Bibliometric mapping reveals that previous studies have predominantly focused on Millennials and Gen Y and have emphasized traditional service quality rather than digital service performance, indicating a significant research gap in Gen Z–specific digital consumption behavior. The SLR findings show that fast, secure, stable, and user-friendly digital systems strongly influence perceived value and user satisfaction, while the availability of digital payments such as QRIS and e-wallets enhances seamless transactional experiences. Customer satisfaction emerges as the primary psychological mechanism mediating the relationship between digital service quality and Gen Z loyalty, reflected in repeat purchases, positive word of mouth, and emotional attachment to digital culinary platforms. This study contributes theoretically by addressing existing research gaps and proposing a conceptual model of Gen Z loyalty grounded in digital experience.

The Marketing Mix strategy is a combination of various marketing elements that include product, price, distribution place, and promotion. The Marketing Mix strategy, also known as the marketing mix is a concept in marketing that explains four main elements that must be managed in an integrated manner to achieve marketing objectives. In general practice, the using of QRIS is a payment standard using a QR code developed by Bank Indonesia and the Indonesian Payment System Association to simplify and accelerate digital transactions. Through VOSviewer analysis, the implementation of QRIS can have a positive impact on the operations and business performance of MSMEs, and the marketing mix strategy in the context of business digitalization becomes an important approach to maintaining MSME competitiveness. The results of the VOSviewer visual map analysis and the review of previous State of the Art research indicate that most existing studies still focus on aspects of QRIS adoption and transaction efficiency alone. These studies generally highlight how digital payment system is able to  improve the speed, security, and convenience of transactions but have not yet widely linked them directly to marketing mix strategies and consumer purchasing decisions. This indicates a research gap in understanding the role of QRIS is not only as a transaction tool but also as part of the marketing strategy that influences consumer behaviour.

Compliance with local tax and retribution payments plays a crucial role in increasing Regional Own-Source Revenue (PAD). However, low fiscal literacy and limited effectiveness of existing socialization programs remain major obstacles to achieving optimal revenue targets. This community service program aims to enhance the knowledge and capacity of officers at the Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) of Southeast Sulawesi Province in implementing more effective, persuasive, and adaptive socialization strategies. The methods used include direct observation, interviews, document analysis, material presentation, and interactive discussions. The results indicate that the socialization activities improved officers' understanding of tax literacy concepts, fiscal communication, and technology-based educational strategies. Additionally, the findings reveal that low public literacy, limited use of digital media, and varying public perceptions of fiscal transparency significantly influence taxpayer compliance. This program produced practical educational materials and strategic recommendations that can be sustainably implemented by Bapenda. Overall, the activity contributes positively to strengthening the agency’s internal capacity and refining socialization strategies to enhance taxpayer compliance and support optimal local revenue collection.

The rapid growth of financial technology has led to the emergence of digital wallets as an efficient and practical means of payment. One of the most widely used services in Indonesia is Shopeepay, particularly among Generation z, who are known for their adaptability to new technologies. This study aims to examine to influence of perceived usefulness (X1) and perceived risk (X2) on the intention to use digital wallets (Y), with Shopeepay payment method (M) as a moderating variable. This research employed a quantitative approach by distributing questionnaires to 60 University students who actively use Shopeepay. The collected data were analyzed using multiple linier regression and Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The findings reveal that perceived usefulness has a positive and significant effect on the intention to use Shopeepay (sig. 0,004<0,05). Perceived risk also shows a significant effect in thr multiple regression test (sig. 0,003<0,05), but becomes insignificant when tested with MRA (sig. 0,094>0,05). This suggests that impact of risk tends to weaken when moderated by the payment methode. Furthermore, the Shopeepay payment method itself does not significantly influence user intention (sig. 0,067>0,05) collectively, perceived usefulness and perceived risk significantly affect the intention to use Shopeepay (sig. 0,001).

The implementation of online zakat payments by BAZNAS Jambi Province faced several challenges, including suboptimal use of the Simba application due to system errors. Additionally, there was a lack of public trust in online zakat payments, insufficient public literacy on the matter, and inadequate socialization and education from BAZNAS Jambi regarding the online payment process. This study used a qualitative descriptive approach, with data collection via interviews. To optimize digital zakat management, BAZNAS Jambi implemented a strategy involving both their website and the SIMBA system, offering two digital payment options: transfers and QRIS codes. They also pursued partnerships with companies and promoted zakat payments through social media platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, Google Ads, Meta Ads, as well as TVRI and RRI television. However, there were challenges, including human resource limitations at BAZNAS Jambi, which resulted in delays when verifying factual data. Additionally, high IT operational costs limited the effectiveness of SIMBA and the website. The coordination issues, including both functional and institutional coordination, were also identified as significant problems. To address these challenges, BAZNAS Jambi has been working on solutions such as community education, socializing zakat management with the public and local government agencies (OPDs), and improving internal coordination.

This report provides practical recommendations for MSMEs in leveraging digital technology to face increasingly competitive markets.

The utilization of Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) by Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia has an important role in encouraging digitalization of transactions and improving financial recording and reporting. The background of this study is the need for MSMEs to adapt to the development of digital payment technology, especially in the midst of accelerated digitization triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. Although QRIS provides various benefits, such as ease of transactions and automatic recording, there are still a number of obstacles such as limited digital literacy, uneven infrastructure, and concerns related to cybersecurity, especially in remote areas. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach to SMEs that have adopted QRIS in several regions in Indonesia. Data were collected through field observations, and documentation studies related to the use of QRIS in business activities. Data analysis was conducted thematically to explore in-depth understanding of the experiences, challenges, and benefits felt by MSME actors in the use of QRIS. The results showed that QRIS makes it easier for MSMEs to process payments and automatic digital transaction recording, thereby increasing the accuracy and transparency of financial statements. However, limited access to electricity, digital devices, and digital security literacy are significant barriers to optimal implementation of QRIS. The security aspect of digital transactions is an important concern for MSMEs, who need further education and technical support. Thus, strengthening digital literacy, improving infrastructure, and strict cybersecurity regulations are urgently needed to encourage wider and inclusive adoption of QRIS among MSMEs in Indonesia.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in Indonesia’s economic development, particularly in job creation, income distribution, and tax revenue contribution. To support MSMEs and encourage formal tax participation, the government issued Government Regulation (PP) No. 23 of 2018, which reduced the Final Income Tax (PPh Final) rate from 1% to 0.5% of gross turnover. This policy aims to increase tax compliance, reduce administrative burdens, and expand the national tax base. This study analyzes the impact of the implementation of the Final Income Tax policy on MSME taxpayer compliance, focusing on reporting and payment behavior. The findings indicate that the tax rate reduction positively influences compliance levels among MSME taxpayers. However, several challenges persist, including limited understanding of tax procedures, lack of socialization, and low digital literacy related to tax systems. Therefore, beyond lowering tax rates, continuous education, mentoring, and the enhancement of digital-based tax services are necessary to strengthen voluntary compliance. This policy is considered a strategic initiative in improving Indonesia’s tax system and supporting sustainable economic growth driven by the MSME sector.

This study aims to examine the role of Coretax as a digital innovation in reporting the Periodic Tax Return (SPT Masa) for Income Tax Article 21 (PPh 21), which has been nationally implemented since 2025. Coretax is an integrated tax administration system developed by the Directorate General of Taxes to combine the processes of electronic withholding tax slip (e-Bupot) creation, tax return reporting, and tax payment into one efficient and accurate online platform. The system simplifies reporting procedures, accelerates administrative processes, and enhances taxpayer compliance through real-time data integration and automatic validation. However, the implementation of Coretax faces challenges such as technical issues, intensive training needs for staff at Tax Service Offices, and limited digital literacy among taxpayers, especially micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). This study provides an overview of Coretax’s contribution to supporting the digital transformation of Indonesia’s tax system while identifying obstacles that must be addressed to ensure optimal system performance.

This study aims to analyze the e-invoice creation procedure in the management of “zak” cement transportation at PT Semen Indonesia Logistik (SILOG), as part of the digital transformation in the billing system based on the urgency of the company's need for a more efficient and accurate billing system to reduce the risk of late payments and improve operational efficiency. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation of four informants involved in the e-invoice creation process. The e-invoice creation procedure at SILOG involves the integration of the CSMS, FIOS, SAP, and PORTAL systems. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of e-invoices brings a number of advantages such as accelerating the billing process, time efficiency, reducing dependence on physical documents, and increasing data accuracy through a computerized system. However, this study also found significant technical constraints, especially in the accuracy of geofence data and unloading destinations that impact the validity of e-invoices. The FIOS system that is not yet optimal causes vehicle location data to sometimes not match the unloading point that should be. This constraint requires additional manual processes that can hinder the effectiveness of the system. Therefore, this study recommends improving the information system and technical training for users to reduce errors and increase the effectiveness of e-invoice use as a whole.

This study is a literature review that examines the role of QRIS as a payment gateway in improving the efficiency of Accounting Information Systems (AIS) in MSMEs. Digital transformation in payment systems is key to speeding up, enhancing accuracy, and securing transaction records. QRIS provides a practical solution by integrating various non-cash payment methods into one system, enabling automated real-time recording and faster financial reporting. A review of ten studies shows QRIS helps speed up recording, ease reconciliation, reduce input errors, and serve as a strategic tool for AIS digitalization in the digital economy era.

The advancement of digital technology in financial systems, including the implementation of QRIS (Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard) in the retail sector, has driven the increased use of non-cash payment methods. How flexibility, time efficiency, and protectivity influence the number of QRIS transactions conducted in retail stores is the subject of this research. Validity, reliability, classical assumption analysis, and hypothesis analysis. Results show that time efficiency contributes significantly to increasing QRIS transactions, while flexibility and security are not significantly affected. Only 18.9% of the variation in QRIS usage behavior is caused by the three independent variables, according to the coefficient of determination (R2). These findings indicate that time efficiency is a key factor in driving the retail sector to adopt digital payment systems.

This research analyzes the fundamental conflict between state regulation and Sharia principles regarding cryptocurrency in Indonesia, aiming to explore the views of Islamic scholars and the legal perspective in the Qur'an and its interpretations. Cryptocurrency has become a popular investment trend, especially among the youth. While the Bank Indonesia (BI) prohibits its use as a legal payment instrument, its trading activity is legalized as an investment asset under the supervision of OJK and BI. Conversely, the MUI Fatwa and the majority of scholars declare crypto transactions as forbidden (haram) due to the presence of elements prohibited in Islamic economics: riba (usury) and gharar (uncertainty). Gharar is linked to the extreme price volatility that encourages speculation (maysir) and the non-physical nature of crypto. Riba, on the other hand, is associated with the potential for unfair profit in lending and staking mechanisms. This prohibition is rooted in the interpretation of the Qur'an (QS. Al-Baqarah: 275 and QS. An-Nisa: 29), which strictly forbids riba and consuming others' wealth through bathil (unlawful) means. Consequently, although legally accepted as an investment asset, many scholars view crypto as violating the principles of justice and transparency in Islamic economics.

This study aims to examine the impact of digital payments, budget target clarity, and reporting systems on the performance of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) in South Lampung Regency. The research background is motivated by the fact that the performance of BUMDes nationally, including in the region, remains relatively low, with most still categorized as pioneers or beginners. The research method used is quantitative with a survey approach using a questionnaire, distributed to 77 BUMDes managers who met the sample criteria. Data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares-based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS) with the SmartPLS 4.0 software. The findings indicate that the reporting system has a significant positive effect on BUMDes' performance. Conversely, digital payments and budget target clarity were found to have no significant effect. These findings imply the importance of strengthening reporting systems that prioritize transparency, accuracy, and ease of access as a strategic step to improve BUMDes performance. Meanwhile, the adoption of digital payments and improved budget planning still require support through enhanced human resource capacity and adequate infrastructure. Practically, this research contributes valuable insights for BUMDes managers and local governments in formulating policies for institutional strengthening.

This community service program was carried out by students of Universitas Pelita Bangsa in Karangsetia Village, Karang Bahagia District, Bekasi Regency, as a concrete effort to strengthen the capacity of micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in facing the challenges of digitalization. MSMEs in this area still encounter various obstacles, such as the absence of formal business legality, limited understanding of branding strategies, and minimal utilization of digital technology for both marketing and payment systems. These conditions have weakened business competitiveness and hindered the growth of local enterprises. The program focused on three interrelated aspects: legal compliance, brand development, and digital adoption. Business legality was facilitated through the issuance of the Business Identification Number (NIB), which provides legal certainty while granting access to government programs and financial institutions. Branding was strengthened by designing logos, banners, and simple promotional media to enhance business identity, professionalism, and consumer appeal. Digitalization was promoted through business registration on Google Maps to improve visibility, and the adoption of the Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) as a cashless payment method that is efficient, secure, and widely accepted. The methods employed included observation, socialization, mentoring, and participatory evaluation with business owners. The results demonstrated significant progress, as most MSMEs successfully obtained legal registration, adopted QRIS in daily transactions, registered their businesses on Google Maps, and developed clearer visual identities. This program had a positive impact by increasing entrepreneurial confidence, expanding market reach, and fostering awareness of the importance of digital transformation. Overall, the community service program contributed to strengthening the competitiveness, sustainability, and independence of MSMEs in Karangsetia Village, while supporting the development of the local economy.

This study examines the social, economic, and tourism impacts on the lives of the community in Penglipuran Tourism Village. The research highlights that the growth of tourism significantly increases local income by approximately 150–300%, fosters the creation of new business opportunities, and contributes to the preservation of Balinese culture and traditions. Tourism development not only strengthens the village’s cultural identity but also enhances social cohesion through community-based tourism initiatives. In addition, the adoption of digital technologies, such as cashless payment systems and electronic ticketing, has improved transaction efficiency, transparency, and market expansion, while also providing better services for visitors. Despite these benefits, several challenges have emerged, including growing environmental pressures, waste management issues, and the potential widening of economic inequality between residents directly involved in tourism and those who are not. These challenges indicate that tourism development can also create socio-economic gaps and place strains on the village’s natural resources if not managed carefully. Therefore, sustainable tourism management becomes crucial in balancing cultural preservation, economic equity, and environmental protection. This study suggests that policies integrating community participation, equitable economic distribution, and environmental sustainability are essential to ensure long-term positive impacts. Ultimately, Penglipuran Tourism Village can serve as a model for sustainable rural tourism development in Indonesia and beyond.

The agricultural sector plays a crucial role in the Indonesian economy, contributing significantly to Gross Domestic Product (GDP), employment, and national food security. Conventional financing is often poorly suited to the unique characteristics of the agricultural sector, prompting the exploration of more adaptive alternatives. Islamic banking, with its principles of fairness and risk-sharing, offers innovative financing solutions. One such contract with significant potential but underutilized is the Salam contract, a purchase-and-sell contract where payment is made upfront and goods are delivered at a later date. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of the Salam contract in depth, identify challenges and opportunities in its implementation in the Islamic agricultural sector, and formulate strategies for optimizing its application. Using a qualitative descriptive research method based on literature review and comparative analysis, this article finds that the Salam contract offers an effective financing solution for farmers' working capital needs, price risk mitigation for farmers, and supply security for buyers. Key challenges include the risk of crop failure, quality risk, moral hazard risk, and limited supporting infrastructure and market understanding. Optimizing the Salam contract can be achieved through the development of innovative contract models, strengthening risk management through takaful instrumentation, utilizing digital technology, improving Islamic financial literacy, and collaboration between stakeholders. The implications of this research are expected to provide practical guidance for Islamic financial institutions, farmers, and policymakers to create a more inclusive and sustainable Islamic agricultural financing ecosystem. With the right approach, the Salam contract has the potential to become a key instrument in Islamic agricultural financing. Its widespread implementation can drive the transformation of the agricultural sector toward a more productive and equitable direction. Sustainable efforts are needed to ensure its effective implementation in the field.
