Abstract

Realization of zakat acceptance in Indonesia is still not optimal even though many Amil Zakat Institutions (AZI- Lembaga Amil Zakat) have developed an electronic zakat payment system (E-Zakat). This study was conducted to explain behavior intention to use e-zakat using a technology acceptance model approach. We used 80 muzakki who are E-Zakat users and the data were analyzed using SEM-PLS. We identified that perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use have a very significant effect on behavior intention to use e-zakat. The implication of this research is that AZI, which develops e-zakat, should pay attention to the convenience and usability of e-zakat by paying attention to the features, services, and clarity of procedures in using e-zakat.
