A digital payment system is a technology-driven infrastructure that facilitates the electronic transfer of
funds between parties, eliminating the need for physical currency or traditional banking instruments.
This system operates through secure networks, allowing users to make transactions, payments, or
transfers electronically. Digital payment systems encompass a variety of technologies, including online
banking, mobile payment apps, and point-of-sale (POS) terminals, contributing to the digitization of
financial transactions.
Small and Medium-sized Enterprises are businesses that fall below specific size and revenue thresholds.
These enterprises are characterized by their relatively modest scale compared to larger corporations.
Criteria for categorizing a business as an SME often consider factors such as the number of employees,
annual turnover, or total assets. SMEs play a crucial role in the economy, and their distinct characteristics
differentiate them from larger, more established companies.
Performance Indicators, or KPIs, are measurable metrics that reflect a business's success in achieving its
objectives. In the context of this study, potential KPIs include:
Revenue growth: The increase in sales and income over a specific period.
Profitability: The ability to generate a net profit after accounting for all expenses.
Operational efficiency: The reduction in costs or time associated with business processes, potentially
influenced by the adoption of Digital Payment Systems (DPS).
Moderating Factors:
Moderating factors are variables that influence the strength or direction of the relationship between two
other variables. In this study, they might include:
Internet access: The availability and quality of internet connectivity, impacting the feasibility of using
Digital Payment Systems (DPS).
Digital literacy: The knowledge and skills of individuals in using digital technologies, including DPS.
Business size: The number of employees or annual revenue, potentially influencing the complexity of
DPS implementation.
