The success of family planning program is one of the factors contributing to the decline of fertility rate in Indonesia. Although the prevalence of contraception in Indonesia continues to increase, its growth from year to year continues to decline. Internet is a potential ICT media that can be used to promote family planning program. This study aims to investigate the effect of Internet access on the decision to use contraception in Indonesia. Using data from the Intercensal Population Survey (SUPAS) of 2015, a binary logistic regression is selected to study the effects of Internet access on decision to use contraception among married women aged 15-54 years who live with their partners in Indonesia. The results of this study show that after controlling for education level, working status, place of residence, and age, Internet access statistically makes significant positive effects to the contraceptive use in Indonesia.
