“…Technology and religion are seen as two competing things (Singh & Srivastava, 2018). Barlow (1996), Adamu (2002), andBockover (2003) stated that the internet imposes a value system on its users and is therefore perceived as a potential threat to Muslim society. Adoption of new technology can be perceived as an unnatural and risky process by individuals who are deeply attached to their religion (Sjöberg, 2004;Sjöberg & Winroth, 1986).…”

This research studies the effects of the religiosity on financial technology (fintech) adoption. The study examines religiosity as part of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) dimensions for the adoption of mobile payment technology. We explore the role of religiosity in TAM and recommend several policies for related organizations. The study uses professional sample calculation from 113 traditional markets under Perumda Pasar Jaya as a business entity whose capital is wholly or mostly owned by the regional government through regional assets of DKI Jakarta Province, Indonesia, which use mobile payment technology. We obtained 363 respondents from June 2020 to June 2021, coinciding with the Covid-19 pandemic. Hypothesis testing was done employing SmartPLS 3.2.9 software and questionnaires. The study also adapts previous studies to ensure the questionnaires are relevant to the research objects. The research result show that religiosity explained the formation of TAM by small businesses in traditional markets under Perumda Pasar Jaya Management. Religiosity and the adoption of mobile payment technology determined whether a user used fintech or not. As the research period was limited to June 2020 - June 2021, including field research in the traditional markets, newer TAM mobile payment technology development and other TAM mobile payment-based research were not included. This research offers a new TAM development model using religiosity for mobile payment adoption in traditional markets.

There continues to be a gap in access, policies, and usage between developed and developing nations with regard to the Internet. This chapter examines approaches to and strategies related to the Internet in developing nations. Particular attention is paid to factors hindering and facilitating Internet development and policy making in such nations. Examples indicate the increasing prevalence of alliances amidst developing nation governments as well as with private sector, international, regional, and nongovernmental organizations in order to bridge the global digital divide and contribute to social and economic development.
