The shift in the buying and selling transaction model from cash to non-cash systems is increasingly evident in daily economic One of the main innovations driving this change is the implementation of the Indonesian Standard Quick Response Code (QRIS) as a digital payment method. QRIS is a unification of various QR Codes from Payment System Service Providers (PJSP) into a single national standard developed by the payment system industry in collaboration with Bank Indonesia to make transactions using QR Codes easier, faster, and more secure. Bank Indonesia requires all payment system service providers that use payment QR Codes to implement QRIS in their transaction processes (BI, 2.

Rosyid. Srie Nuning Mulatsih. Aisyah Ratnasari The use of QRIS by businesses in Indonesia has been widespread across various sectors. QRIS can be used for payments at stores, merchants, food stalls, parking lots, tourist attractions, and donations . with the QRIS logo. This interoperability is maintained even though the QRIS provider at the merchant is different from the application provider used by the public. For businesses, the use of QRIS offers various benefits such as ease of transaction, avoidance of counterfeit money risks, and reduced need to provide Meanwhile, the public as users enjoy the convenience of cashless transactions, allowing them to avoid carrying cash and simply use their smartphones (APJII, 2. Thus. QRIS has become an important instrument connecting businesses and consumers in an increasingly inclusive digital economy ecosystem. Although it offers convenience and benefits, the adoption of QRIS has not been evenly distributed across all segments of society. There are still many individuals who have not utilized QRIS in their daily financial transactions. The reasons for this include a lack of public understanding of how QRIS works and the deep-rooted convenience of cash In order for the shift in payment behavior from cash to non-cash via QRIS to occur effectively, appropriate and comprehensive socialization is needed for both businesses and the public (Sekarsari et al. , 2. Thus, public education plays a vital role in increasing financial digital literacy so that public acceptance of QRIS can grow more widely. Supporting factors such as smartphone penetration and internet banking services in various regions of Indonesia have actually created conducive conditions for the use of QRIS. The city of Tangerang, located on the border between Indonesia and Malaysia, is an interesting example for studying QRIS adoption. In this city, the use of QRIS is considered to be able to help businesses and the community obtain convenience and security in non-cash transactions (Yuliati & Handayani, 2. In the context of border areas. QRIS not only provides transaction efficiency but also has the potential to strengthen local and cross-border economic integration, thus having a strategic dimension for strengthening the regional A number of previous studies have provided empirical evidence on the implementation of QRIS and the factors that influence it. Sihaloho et al. , for example, examined the implementation of QRIS in MSMEs in Medan and described its role, obstacles, and impact on MSME income. This study used interviews and literature reviews of MSME merchants who had used QRIS, and showed that QRIS provided significant benefits for small Ariani & Utomo . examined the acceptance of QR codes in business https://jurnal. id/index. php/jceb/index The Role Of QRIS In Enhancing MSME Performance Through Digital Payment Systems In Tangerang City By Jamalus. Rosyid. Srie Nuning Mulatsih. Aisyah Ratnasari transactions and found that QR codes had not been fully accepted by businesses, requiring better socialization strategies and support from banks. The results of this study are important as a reference for financial institutions and policymakers to develop QR Code-based payment methods that are more acceptable to the market. The study (Mayanti, 2. analyzed public acceptance of the implementation of QRIS as a cashless payment technology using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) framework. The research subjects were users of electronic wallets such as Go-Pay and OVO who had implemented QRIS as a replacement for the previous QR Code. The results of the study show that facilitating conditions and hedonic motivation have a positive influence on behavior intention, and behavior intention also has a positive influence on use behavior (Basmantra & Liman, 2. These findings confirm that psychological factors and technological support conditions are important determinants in the adoption of QRIS by the wider community. The consistency of the above research results shows that the implementation of QRIS in Indonesia faces complex opportunities and challenges. On the one hand. QRIS can increase transaction efficiency, expand financial inclusion, and strengthen the competitiveness of business actors. On the other hand, obstacles in the form of low financial digital literacy and public preference for cash are challenges that must be overcome. In this context, government policies, banking institutions, and massive public education are key factors that determine the success of QRIS implementation at the national and local levels. The local context, such as the city of Tangerang, which has geographical characteristics as a border area, also presents a new dimension in the study of QRIS implementation. Research on QRIS adoption in this city is important to understand the specific dynamics that influence public acceptance of digital payment technology. Furthermore, such research can fill the gap in previous studies, which have tended to focus on large cities or areas with more advanced infrastructure. By combining previous research findings, real-world conditions, and a theory-based approach to technology acceptance, a study on the use of QRIS in Tangerang can provide academic and practical contributions to the development of policies and strategies for the future promotion of QRIS. Thus. QRIS is not only a payment technology innovation but also a strategic instrument to promote financial literacy, improve economic efficiency, and expand financial inclusion in Indonesia. Understanding the factors that influence the acceptance of QRIS among the public and business actors, especially in border areas such as Tangerang, will help formulate more https://jurnal. id/index. php/jceb/index The Role Of QRIS In Enhancing MSME Performance Through Digital Payment Systems In Tangerang City By Jamalus. Rosyid. Srie Nuning Mulatsih. Aisyah Ratnasari targeted policies. Therefore, this study seeks to comprehensively examine the acceptance and use of QRIS by integrating previous empirical findings and unique local contexts. The use of QRIS in the business world in Indonesia has shown significant growth. QRIS is widely used for financial transactions, both through banks and non-banks, and has been integrated into various sectors ranging from shops, merchants, stalls, parking, tourist tickets, to donations (BI, 2. For small, medium, and large businesses. QRIS offers advantages such as ease of transaction, protection from counterfeit money, and operational efficiency without the need to provide change (Sagayarani, 2. Meanwhile. QRIS users enjoy the convenience of cashless transactions using only a smartphone, in line with the high internet penetration in Indonesia (APJII, 2. Despite these conveniences, the adoption rate of QRIS is not yet uniform. Some people still feel comfortable with cash payments or do not fully understand the QRIS mechanism. Changing payment behavior from cash to non-cash requires an effective socialization strategy for businesses and consumers so that the benefits of QRIS can be optimally realized (BI. On the other hand, digital infrastructure support such as smartphones, internet networks, and online banking services is widely available in various regions. This condition shows great potential to accelerate the transformation of non-cash transactions through QRIS (Fathimiyah & Fianto, 2020. Mantik, 2. In the context of increasingly competitive business competition, companies with competencies in marketing, manufacturing, and innovation can utilize digital payment technology as a source of competitive advantage (Daengs et al. , 2. To determine the effectiveness of implementing this technology, a structured research design with appropriate data collection methods, such as surveys and descriptive and inferential data analysis, is required (Dewi et al. , 2022. Istanti, 2. A well-designed study will enable researchers to test the effect of independent variables on dependent variables using appropriate statistical analysis techniques (Daengs et al. , 2. In addition, time management skills in research planning and implementation are important for producing outputs that meet academic standards and can contribute to the development of science and business practices (Dewi et al. , 2022. Istanti, 2. Thus, the urgency of research on the use of QRIS lies not only in the technical aspects of its use, but also in behavioral, managerial, and competitiveness implications for business actors. This narrative emphasizes the need for comprehensive studies to understand the drivers and https://jurnal. id/index. php/jceb/index The Role Of QRIS In Enhancing MSME Performance Through Digital Payment Systems In Tangerang City By Jamalus. Rosyid. Srie Nuning Mulatsih. Aisyah Ratnasari barriers to QRIS adoption so that research results can support the strengthening of financial inclusion and digital transformation policies in Indonesia. METHODS This research method is designed as exploratory research aimed at gathering data and information about the phenomenon of QRIS utilization for the purposes of further study or In terms of research level, it is descriptive in nature because it provides a comprehensive overview of the social setting and describes the variables related to the issue being studied (Riyanto & Hatmawan, 2. A qualitative approach was used to gain an indepth understanding of the meaning, attitudes, and practices of the community regarding the use of QRIS. The research design followed the principles of systematic research planning so that the necessary resources and data could be determined from the outset. The research population is the community living in Tangerang City. Referring to the concept of population as a group of subjects with certain characteristics to be investigated (Sugiyono, 2. , this study took a sample of 300 respondents who were considered representative to reflect the demographic and transaction behavior variations in Tangerang City to describe the conditions of QRIS usage during that time period. The data collection technique combines quantitative surveys in the form of questionnaires and qualitative techniques in the form of in-depth interviews and field The survey method was chosen as the primary data source through written instruments to obtain a general overview, while in-depth interviews allowed for contextual exploration of the reasons, obstacles, and experiences of QRIS users. Data analysis was conducted qualitatively through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, thematic coding, and conclusion drawing, supported by descriptive analysis to describe the patterns of findings (Iba & Wardhana, 2. The research design and analysis techniques were developed in such a way as to enable testing of relationships between phenomena if necessary in further research. this is in line with data analysis practices that can be developed into quantitative hypothesis testing at a later stage (Hardani et al. , 2. The implementation of the research also took into account aspects of time management and research quality standards to ensure accountable outputs. Thus, this method is expected to provide valid and context-rich findings on the use of QRIS in the community of Tangerang City.

Rosyid. Srie Nuning Mulatsih. Aisyah Ratnasari CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the implementation of the Indonesian Standard Quick Response Code (QRIS) in Tangerang City has been effective in achieving its objectives. The level of public understanding of QRIS is relatively good, accompanied by high public enthusiasm for the use of digital payments. The majority of the people of Tangerang City are aware of the existence and function of QRIS as a shopping transaction tool and understand the QRIS standards set by Bank Indonesia. The use of QRIS in Tangerang City is also relatively good and continues to expand. The public has utilized various applications such as LinkAja. Gopay. Ovo. Dana. Shopeepay. Sakuku. Mandiri Syariah, and others. The use of QRIS is driven by the convenience and benefits it offers, such as not having to carry large amounts of cash, reducing the risk of exposure to Covid-19, avoiding the risk of counterfeit money, receiving cashback, and getting discounts. The public response to the convenience of QRIS shows that there is interest in using this service after learning about its functions, although a small portion of the public is still not The dissemination of QRIS in Tangerang City is also considered quite good, with recommendations from the public that dissemination be carried out more intensively through social media (Instagram. Messenge. , videos, photos, billboards, advertisements, posters, seminars, radio, and face-to-face meetings. Overall, these findings show that the existence and use of QRIS has had a positive impact on increasing digital financial literacy, the public's habit of making cashless transactions, and the involvement of business actors in the digital payment ecosystem in Tangerang City. With the support of continuous socialization, this program has the potential to further enhance the digital transformation of the community's payment system. Future Researchers Further research can focus on evaluating the long-term impact of QRIS utilization in the Tangerang community, including analysis of consumption behavior, digital financial literacy, and its influence on financial inclusion. This will reveal whether the positive effects on adoption, convenience, and security variables remain consistent or change over Subsequent research could also explore factors that influence the level of understanding and acceptance of QRIS, such as educational background, economic status, experience https://jurnal. id/index. php/jceb/index The Role Of QRIS In Enhancing MSME Performance Through Digital Payment Systems In Tangerang City By Jamalus. Rosyid. Srie Nuning Mulatsih. Aisyah Ratnasari using digital financial services, and support from local government and the private sector. This analysis is important for improving the effectiveness of outreach and education Conducting comparative studies between cities on the level of QRIS usage will provide a broader perspective on variations in community behavior and the effectiveness of socialization programs. These comparative results can form the basis for policy development and best practices that can be applied more widely. Future researchers may consider a participatory approach by involving the community, business actors, and financial institutions in the evaluation process. This approach allows QRIS users to convey their needs, constraints, and aspirations, which can ultimately result in more responsive and effective policies. For the Tangerang City Government The Tangerang City Government needs to increase QRIS awareness more widely through media that are close to the community, such as Instagram. WhatsApp. Facebook. YouTube, local radio, and face-to-face meetings at the village/neighborhood/community It is recommended that the government collaborate with Bank Indonesia and digital payment service providers to provide ongoing education about the benefits of QRIS, transaction security, and incentive programs such as cashback or discounts that can increase adoption. The government needs to establish QRIS information and complaint centers at the village level to provide assistance to people who still experience technical difficulties, such as transaction errors or confusion in choosing an application. The government can encourage local MSMEs to be more active in using QRIS for transactions, for example through free training, mentoring programs, and non-cash merchant certification, so that more business sectors are integrated into the digital payment ecosystem. For the Community and Business Owners (MSMEs and Local Merchant. Participate in QRIS socialization and training programs organized by the government or private parties to understand the correct usage, manage transactions, and maintain customer data security. Provide clear information on QRIS usage at business locations so that consumers are aware of the available payment methods. https://jurnal. id/index. php/jceb/index The Role Of QRIS In Enhancing MSME Performance Through Digital Payment Systems In Tangerang City By Jamalus.
