The development of digital technology has encouraged the transformation of the financial sector through the emergence of Sharia financial technology (fintech) as a financial service based on Islamic principles that emphasize justice, transparency, and public benefit (maslahah). The presence of various Sharia fintech products such as Sharia peer-to-peer (P2P) lending, Sharia crowdfunding, Sharia E-wallets, and digital ZISWAF (zakat, infaq, alms, and waqf) services is considered capable of increasing financial inclusion in Indonesia, especially for unbanked communities and MSMEs that have limited access to formal financial services. This study aims to analyze the innovation of Sharia fintech products, their role in increasing financial inclusion, and their conformity with the perspective of Islamic Economic Law. This research uses a qualitative method with a library research approach through collecting data from scientific journals, DSN-MUI fatwas, OJK and Bank Indonesia regulations, as well as various literature related to Sharia fintech published within the last five years. The data analysis technique was carried out descriptively and analytically by examining the concepts, implementation, and regulations of Sharia fintech in Indonesia. The results of the study indicate that Sharia fintech has a strategic role in expanding public access to financial services through the digitalization of financing, payments, and Islamic social fund collection. In addition to increasing Islamic financial inclusion and literacy, Sharia fintech also helps reduce transaction costs, facilitate MSME financing access, and expand the distribution of financial services to remote areas. From a Sharia perspective, the operation of Sharia fintech must continue to adhere to DSN-MUI fatwas and maqashid sharia principles in order to avoid elements of riba, gharar, and maisir and to create justice and public benefit for society. Therefore, Sharia fintech has a great opportunity to support the development of an inclusive and sustainable Islamic digital economy in Indonesia, although strengthening regulations, Sharia supervision, public education, and product innovation based on community needs are still required.

This research is motivated by the escalating prevalence of illegal online lending practices in Indonesia, which generate a multitude of legal problems, particularly those concerning the validity of loan agreements and debt collection practices. The simplicity of access through smartphone applications, rapid processing times often approved within minutes and minimal administrative requirements have rendered these services immensely popular among the public. However, this accessibility also paves the way for unlicensed providers to operate unchecked, preying on desperate borrowers. The study aims to analyze the legal validity of illegal online loan agreements pursuant to the Indonesian Civil Code (KUHPerdata) and regulations issued by the Financial Services Authority (Otoritas Jasa Keuangan, OJK). Additionally, it examines the legal position of debt collection from a civil law perspective. A normative juridical method is employed, utilizing statutory and conceptual approaches, with qualitative analysis of the data. The results demonstrate that illegal online loan agreements fail to fulfill the requirements for a valid contract, especially regarding the legal capacity of the parties and lawful cause, categorizing them as null and void by operation of law. Nevertheless, in practice, unlicensed providers continue debt collection efforts, frequently employing methods that violate the law, such as harassment and intimidation. This reveals a significant gap between legal norms and field implementation. The implications emphasize the critical need for robust law enforcement, enhanced consumer protection mechanisms, and stricter oversight of fintech lenders to establish legal certainty and justice for society.

The Society 5.0 era promotes the integration of cyber-physical technology through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data for human welfare, where digital zakat transformation becomes a crucial strategy to bridge the wide gap between national zakat potential (±IDR 327 trillion) and its actual collection. This study aims to analyze digital zakat transformation strategies in accelerating poverty alleviation in Indonesia within the smart society era. The research method employed is a descriptive qualitative approach using a library research method, analyzing literature from the 2020-2025 period sourced from digital databases. The results indicate that the implementation of digital technologies such as fintech platforms, blockchain, and QRIS significantly enhances transparency, accountability, and muzakki trust, while accelerating fund distribution time by up to 50%. Digital-based productive zakat strategies through MSME empowerment have proven effective in increasing mustahik's average income by up to 100%, facilitating the transformation of mustahik into independent muzakki. This study concludes that digital zakat transformation serves as a primary catalyst for achieving the first pillar of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (No Poverty), although its success requires national regulatory harmonization and the strengthening of technological infrastructure in rural areas.

This study aims to analyze legal protection for lenders in the terms and conditions clauses of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Lending platforms in Indonesia, particularly regarding the risk of default or breach of contract. The background of the study is based on the rapid growth of the P2P Lending fintech industry accompanied by an increase in the risk of default, as well as the potential imbalance in the lenders' bargaining position due to the use of standard clauses that are often detrimental. The results of this study reveal that of the 10 P2P Lending platforms that the author studied, none of the platforms can be said to have completely fulfilled all components of preventive and repressive protection as regulated by POJK No. 40 of 2024. This problem is exacerbated by the existence of exoneration clauses prohibited by POJK No. 22 of 2023 Article 46 paragraph (2), where platforms often unilaterally limit their responsibilities by transferring the risk of default entirely to lenders, thereby reducing consumer rights and violating the principle of consumer protection in Law No. 8 of 1999 Article 18 paragraph (1).

This research aims to analyze the quality of electronic services (E-Service Quality) on user satisfaction of the DANA digital wallet application in the West Jakarta area. The evolution of financial technology (fintech) in Indonesia has encouraged rapid growth in the use of digital wallets, including DANA which is recorded to have more than 200 million users by 2024. However, this rapid growth is still marred by a number of user complaints regarding system reliability, service response speed and transaction security. Therefore, this study is important to evaluate how much e-service quality dimensions influence user satisfaction levels. The research method used is a quantitative approach with an associative type of research. Data was collected through questionnaires from 100 respondents who were active users of the DANA application in the West Jakarta area using a purposive sampling technique. Data analysis was carried out using SPSS software through validity tests, reliability tests, and simple linear regression analysis. The research results show that E-Service Quality has a positive and significant effect on user satisfaction of the DANA application with a coefficient of determination (R Square) of 0.907, which means that 90.7% of the variation in user satisfaction can be explained by the E-Service Quality variable, while the remaining 9.3% is influenced by other factors outside the research model. The results of the significance test (t test) show a significance value (Sig. < 0.05) which indicates that the influence of E-Service Quality on user satisfaction has been proven to be statistically significant. The results of this study are expected to serve as evaluation material for DANA application managers in improving the quality of digital services, particularly in terms of efficiency, system reliability, security, and user responsiveness. Furthermore, this research is expected to provide theoretical contributions to the development of studies in the field of information systems and digital service management.

This systematic review maps how innovation, technology adoption, and Islamic entrepreneurial behaviors are intertwined and contribute to the SDGs. Searches in Scopus followed PRISMA 2020: of the 166 initial records, 46 were eliminated prior to screening; 120 filtered by title–abstract; 45 read in full; and 25 articles were analyzed in depth. Four RQs lead the synthesis: the form of innovation/adoption (RQ1), impact on behavior and performance (RQ2), and their relationship to the SDGs (RQ3). The findings show five complementary faces of innovation: (1) process-organization (knowledge management, open innovation; innovation capability), (2) sharia business/finance models (sharia venture capital, agricultural value chain finance), (3) financial and platform digitalization (fintech, Islamic crowdfunding), (4) technological innovation in business models (e.g., urban farming–aquaponics) that are value-framed, and (5) halal product/marketing innovation (halal assurance and halal trust). Behind that, the drivers are layered: individual values and psychology, Islamic HRM cultural orientation and organizational learning, Islamic finance architecture and regulation, and access to digital literacy and trust in the platform. The impact is multidimensional performance, access to ethical capital, halal market behavior, and social and religious environmental outcomes with strong contributions to SDG 8 and SDG 9, and footprints on SDGs 1–2, 3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 17. This SLR offers an integrated financial innovation value framework and proposes SDGs micro-indicators; limitations mainly in the variation of measurements and the dominance of cross-section designs.

Millennials aged 25 to 40 are currently the largest consumer group. Their dynamic lifestyles and social demands make them highly consumptive. The ease of obtaining credit, such as loans and credit cards, through advances in financial technology (FinTech) has further accelerated this trend. Unfortunately, exposure to social media that portrays a consumptive lifestyle encourages many of them to follow trends and buy non-essential items. The lack of financial literacy among young Indonesians often makes them unaware of the consequences of debt, which ultimately erodes the financial independence that is so badly needed in this era. This study aims to prove the relationship between Financial Technology, Lifestyle, and Self-Control that influence Debt Behavior. In addition, it is seen that men and women have different levels of self-control, and this is input for researchers to add gender as a moderating variable in their research. The research method used is a mixed method, more precisely a Sequential Explanatory Design, in which quantitative data is collected and analyzed, then combined with qualitative data to explain or enhance quantitative findings. Primary data was collected through questionnaires and interviews with experts, while secondary data was collected from articles and other reference data. The population used was the community in the city of Jakarta. The sample was collected using accidental sampling techniques, and the statistical test tool used Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS software.

Personal financial management behavior has gained prominence amid economic globalization, digital transformation, and crisis-induced shifts that reshape individual decision-making, budgeting, saving, and risk practices. This study conducts a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to chart the intellectual structure, growth patterns, and future orientations of research in this domain. Drawing on 312 English-language publications from the Scopus database spanning 2000 to 2024, the analysis employs VOSviewer for co-authorship, keyword co-occurrence, and co-citation mapping, complemented by performance metrics on trends and productivity. Findings reveal a marked acceleration in scholarly output, particularly after 2020, driven by heightened attention to digital tools and resilience factors. Thematic clusters highlight progression from foundational literacy and demographic influences to psychological mediators (e.g., self-efficacy, attitudes) and outcomes centered on well-being and socialization. Geographic contributions concentrate in the United States and Indonesia, with strong Asia-Pacific networks, while productive authors form specialized collaborative hubs. The intellectual base integrates behavioral frameworks with empirical applications, underscoring interdisciplinary depth. These insights address fragmentation in prior work by providing a unified knowledge map, revealing gaps in cross-cultural integration and dynamic digital modeling. Implications extend to guiding targeted interventions for financial education and policy, fostering individual resilience in volatile environments. This synthesis supports scholars and practitioners in advancing evidence-based approaches to sustainable personal finance practices.

Financial literacy plays an important role in supporting the ability of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises to adapt to the development of digital payments in Indonesia. The increasing use of QRIS, e-wallets, mobile banking, and technology-based payment services requires MSME actors to understand the benefits, risks, and proper use of digital financial services. This study aims to examine the role of financial literacy in the use of digital payments among MSMEs in Indonesia, including supporting factors, obstacles, and implications for strengthening MSME digitalization. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a systematic literature study method. The data were obtained from 13 scientific articles indexed in nationally accredited journals at least Sinta 4, published between 2021 and 2026, and supported by official documents from relevant authorities. The findings show that financial literacy plays a role in increasing the readiness, trust, and decisions of MSME actors to use digital payments. However, low financial literacy, perceived risk, limited infrastructure, and conventional transaction habits remain obstacles to digital payment adoption. The implications of this study indicate the need for inclusive digital financial education, continuous assistance, and collaboration among the government, regulators, financial institutions, and fintech providers in strengthening the digital transformation of MSMEs.

This study seeks to investigate the role of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) and financial technology (fintech) in influencing Generation Z's investment decisions through a literature review approach. The rapid advancement of digital technology and the growing use of social media have transformed the financial behavior of young people, such that investment decisions are no longer solely based on rationality but are also shaped by psychological factors. The method used in this study is a literature review, which involves analyzing scientific articles indexed at both national and international levels published between 2021 and 2025. The findings indicate that FOMO can enhance investment participation, yet it also risks prompting impulsive and less rational decision-making. On the other hand, fintech contributes by simplifying access to financial services, improving transaction efficiency, and expanding financial inclusion. Nevertheless, real-time features on fintech platforms may amplify users' emotional responses, thereby magnifying the impact of FOMO. Accordingly, this research underscores the importance of financial literacy and prudent technology use to foster more rational investment decisions among Generation Z.

The rapid development of financial technology (fintech) and crypto assets has created a paradox in the global financial system: while promoting inclusion and efficiency, it also opens new vulnerabilities for money laundering offenses. Notaries, as public officials and legal professionals involved in various financial and business transactions, are at the forefront of preventing this misuse. This article analyzes the specific risks of money laundering through fintech and crypto assets and formulates the due diligence framework required by notaries in carrying out their preventive functions. The research method uses a normative juridical approach with doctrinal analysis of regulations and international standards, enriched with case studies and best practice references. The findings indicate that notaries face three main challenges: (1) difficulty in identifying parties in virtual transactions, (2) the volatility and relative anonymity of crypto assets, and (3) the gap between the speed of technological innovation and regulatory adaptation. This article proposes an Enhanced Digital Due Diligence (ED3) model that integrates digital verification technology, blockchain forensic analysis, and a dynamic risk-based approach. This framework is expected to strengthen the role of notaries as gatekeepers in the rapidly evolving digital financial ecosystem while maintaining the profession's relevance in the era of digital transformation.

The rapid development of digital technology has significantly transformed financial transactions in Indonesia, particularly through the growing use of e-wallets as practical and efficient payment tools. In a country with a Muslim-majority population, ensuring that e-wallet services comply with Islamic principles—free from riba, gharar, and maysir—is essential. This study aims to analyze Indonesia’s legal politics in regulating the use of e-wallets within the Islamic financial system and to assess their alignment with sharia principles. This research employs a normative juridical method with a qualitative descriptive approach by examining laws, regulations, and fatwas related to sharia-based fintech. The findings indicate that the Indonesian regulatory framework—through the OJK, Bank Indonesia, and DSN-MUI—has attempted to harmonize policies to support sharia-compliant digital financial services. However, several challenges remain, including limited e-wallet platforms with sharia certification, low digital sharia literacy among users, and the absence of detailed technical regulations specific to sharia e-wallet operations. This study recommends strengthening regulatory guidelines, increasing public literacy, and enhancing collaboration between regulators and the fintech industry to promote the development of sharia-compliant e-wallets that are secure, innovative, and aligned with Islamic financial principles.

The rapid development of digital technology, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, has brought changes to people's behavior and lifestyle with the trend of digital payments. One of the advances in digital financial services technology is PayLater, a Fintech innovation that offers easy transactions in the form of loans and installments without a credit card. This study aims to analyze the influence of transaction convenience and risk perception on purchasing decisions using the PayLater feature on e-commerce platforms among Generation Z in Samarinda City. This study uses a quantitative approach with associative methods and multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS 27. The method used is purposive sampling to obtain a sample of 100 respondents from Generation Z in Samarinda City, aged 18-28 years, who have used PayLater on e-commerce platforms. The findings show that transaction convenience (X1) has a positive and significant effect on purchasing decisions, but risk perception (X2) does not have a significant effect on purchasing decisions. At the same time, both variables have a significant effect on purchasing decisions. The findings of this study are expected to provide valuable insights for the PayLater feature to design more effective strategies to improve customer satisfaction and transaction experience.

The rise of financial technology (fintech) has significantly reshaped global investment over the last decade. Fintech innovations are increasingly applied in areas such as digital investment platforms, robo-advisors, blockchain-based assets, and cryptocurrency trading. The adoption of fintech in investment continues to grow due to the rising demand for accessibility, transparency, and efficiency in financial markets. Fintech has the potential to democratize investment by lowering entry barriers, expanding financial inclusion, and offering diverse investment instruments for retail investors. Therefore, research on fintech and investment has become an essential topic in recent years. This study uses a qualitative approach with data obtained from the Scopus database, which includes a total of 4,794 articles on fintech and investment published in the last decade (2020–2025). In addition, several software tools such as R Studio, VOSViewer, and Publish or Perish were used for data processing and bibliometric visualization. This study aims to analyze the development of research trends in fintech-driven investment, explore how technology is changing investor behavior, and provide insights for policymakers and practitioners in strengthening a sustainable and inclusive investment ecosystem.

Digital payment systems have become one of the main innovations in financial transformation. Over the past few years, these systems have gained significant traction and are now at the forefront of reshaping financial landscapes globally. Currently, digital payment systems have changed global transactions by slowly replacing the transaction patterns of societies that were previously dominated by conventional transactions, offering more efficiency, security, and accessibility. This transformation is closely related to the development of fintech, which has given rise to instruments in the form of electronic money and blockchain technology. These advancements have not only changed the way payments are made but also enabled the inclusion of previously underserved populations in the financial ecosystem. This study uses a bibliometric approach to analyze scientific publications, with the main sources coming from Scopus using the keywords “digital payment systems,” “electronic money,” and “fintech.” By utilizing Biblioshiny in the VOSviewer application, this study aims to examine publication trends, contributions from various countries, institutions involved, and thematic connections between topics. In conclusion, this study contributes to expanding the understanding of the development of digital payment systems, while also presenting a global research map that can be used as a reference for academics, researchers, and policymakers involved in financial innovation.

Financial inclusion has become a key driver in promoting sustainable development, especially in the era of Industry 4.0, which is characterized by rapid digitalization, technological innovation, and the transformation of financial services. Although academic interest in this topic continues to grow, research in this field has not been systematically mapped, resulting in limited understanding of global trends and thematic evolution. This study uses bibliometric analysis (BA) to explore developments, intellectual structures, and key research focuses in financial inclusion research. Data were collected from the Scopus database for the period 2015–2025, using keywords related to financial inclusion, thus ensuring a comprehensive dataset for analysis. Bibliometric methods were applied using analytical tools such as VOSviewer and R Studio to support the assessment. The results of the analysis show a consistent increase in the number of publications over the last decade, reflecting growing academic attention. The main contributions came from India, China, and the United States, with increasing participation from universities in Africa and Southeast Asia through international collaboration. The main research focus has shifted from microfinance and poverty alleviation to more digital-oriented themes, including fintech, digital finance, blockchain, and green finance. This study contributes by mapping the structure and trends of financial inclusion research and providing insights for policymakers and academics in developing inclusive financial systems that support national strategies such as the SNKI, MSME digitalization, and financial literacy programs in Indonesia to achieve sustainable development goals.

Digital entrepreneurship has become a transformative phenomenon in the modern economy, changing the way businesses are developed and run through digital technology. Although the literature on digital entrepreneurship is growing rapidly, comprehensive mapping of the evolution of knowledge and research patterns is still limited.
