“…The findings indicated that perceived utility emerged as the most influential element affecting users' attitudes and intents. The research conducted by Kilani (2023) examined the post-consumer adoption of e-wallets from an expanded viewpoint, focusing on the role of trust and emphasizing the significance of Attitude Toward the Service in sustaining e-wallet usage. The study conducted by Hidayat (2023) examines the influence of mobility, simplicity of use, and perceived utility on customers' attitudes and intentions to use e-wallets.…”

This study explores the factors influencing the adoption of e-wallets in the Jakarta-Bogor-Depok-Tangerang-Bekasi (Jabodetabek) metropolitan region, Indonesia, among Generation Z and millennials. The research uses a quantitative approach and analyzes data from 136 participants using SEM-PLS. The study examines Perceived Usefulness, Ease of Use, Risk, Trust, Convenience, and Attitude toward the Service. The findings reveal that Perceived Ease of Use influences Usefulness rather than Attitude toward the Service. Perceived Risk influences Attitude toward the Service, and Trust is crucial. This research contributes significantly to the existing literature on e-wallets and digital payment technology in Indonesia, thus contributing to the growth of the country's digital economy. Providers should communicate transparently about security and improve accessibility to increase adoption rates.

“…The 2003 ICT policy further emphasized that changing ICT strategies to empower different sectors and address the national developmental agenda is mandatory. However, despite FOSS being widely used in developing countries [4,68], its use in Tanzanian public and private sectors, including the HEIs, has been unsustainable [69]. As a result, Tanzania's private and public sectors have continued to depend on proprietary software.…”

Free and open-source software (FOSS) are viable alternatives to pricey proprietary software due to their low total cost of ownership (TCO). They are predicted to have a bright future because of their advanced technologies in service delivery. Despite the availability of FOSS adoption studies, public discourse as well as information and communication technology (ICT) policies, FOSS applications are inadequately adopted in Tanzanian Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) due to lack of institutionalization. This finding poses a need for examining the institutionalization status. Institutionalization occurs when FOSS adoption and use becomes a standard practice. This study analyses the institutionalization of FOSS adoption by examining the national and selected universities’ ICT policies and observing the evolution of public discourse towards FOSS by examining multiple articles. The study adopted a systematic literature review and was guided by an analytical framework that triangulated new institutional theory, the underlying concept of organizing vision, and rhetorical diffusion theory. The findings show that, although there are sporadic use of FOSS in some Tanzanian HEIs, FOSS adoption is generally not institutionalized. As a result, the study recommends adjustments in preparation of ICT policies, making adoption of FOSS part of organizational strategic plans for them to enjoy decision-makers’ support.

“…In 2012, Venkatesh et al updated the model and introduce UTAUT2 model which add three new constructs: Hedonic motivation, price value and habit. With the addition of the new constructs in UTAUT2 model, Venkatesh et al enabled a new theoretical focus on consumer context (Kilani et al, 2023). However, in this research context, we omit the variable habit, as our respondents are people who do not use Facebook advertising hence it is impossible for them to build a habit to using it.…”

Advancement of technology in the field of marketing has been one significant factor in assisting Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to increase their competitiveness. Meta, as a technological company, provide Facebook advertisement as a mean of digital social media advertising. One of the challenges that Meta faced is to attract more Facebook ads adoption especially in the Small Medium Enterprise sector. This research objective is to understand the factors that affect social media advertisement adoption, in this case Facebook advertisement, for small medium enterprises in Indonesia. There are eight variables that are believed to influence customer intention to adopt Facebook advertisement which are performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating condition, hedonic motivation, price value, perceived technology security and self-efficacy. The main data was collected by an online survey and 350 SMEs participated in it. The respondents are SMEs that operate in Indonesia and either have not use Facebook advertisement service or do not use the service anymore. The sample was gathered using non-probability convenience sampling and the data was analysed using structural equation model technique. The research found that Self-efficacy is the highest influencing variable that are statistically significant to influence SMEs intention to adopt Facebook advertisement. Effort expectancy and social influence are found to be statistically significant to influence SMEs intention to adopt Facebook advertisement. Hedonic motivation and price value factor are found to be statistically significant to influence intention to adopt Facebook ads for SMEs that have use the service but choose not to use it anymore. In the contrary, the factor of performance expectancy, facilitating condition and perceived technology security are found to be not statistically significant to influence intention to adopt Facebook ads among Indonesia SMEs. The research suggests Meta to prioritize an effort to increase SMEs self-efficacy in using Facebook advertisement by giving free training and certification. Other suggestions are to partner with relevant key opinion leaders (KOL)/communities, creating engagement with SMEs through events and giving monetary incentives such as discount coupons. For future research, researcher suggest different/smaller respondent demography and/or different social media advertising platform. Research with respondent that are actively using Facebook advertising service could also give additional insight to the study.
