Abstract: Health protocols during a pandemic have required that contactless activities be carried out to prevent the
spread of the pandemic. In the field of payment transactions, many consumers have started using electronic payments
during the COVID-19 outbreak. This study reveals the factors that encourage consumers to want to use electronic
payments, namely risk perceptions, usage intentions, perceived benefits, additional features, consumer loyalty, quality
services, perceptions of the usefulness of e-wallet electronic payments. This research method uses quantitative methods
using Smartpls. Through a questionnaire, this study obtained answers from 200 respondents who answered completely.
The results showed that perceived benefits had a positive and significant effect on consumer loyalty, perceived benefits
had a positive and significant effect on intentions to use e-wallet, technical support had no positive and significant effect
on intentions to use e-wallet, additional features had a positive and significant effect on intentions to use e-wallet,
additional positive and significant effect on consumer loyalty and intention to use e-wallet payment has a positive and
significant effect on consumer loyalty.
Keywords: Perceived risk, perceived benefits, additional features, perceived usefulness, service quality, usage
intentions, consumer loyalty.
1. INTRODUCTION
Mainstream research shows that health protocols have educated people to use digitalization and carry out social
distancing and lockdowns. The same thing applies to payments that used to use money, starting to shift to electronic
payments (Bolt et al., 2005). Previous research has shown that electronic payments are gaining popularity, but how far
the use of electronic payments among Indonesians is still unclear (Mohammad, 2008; Uddin and Akhi, 2014; Polasik et
al., 2012). Previous research on electronic payments such as electronic payments has raised concerns about security risks
such as account takeovers, fraudulent transactions and data breaches.
Electronic payments are a type of electronic card similar to a credit or debit card (Allen, 2003). Electronic
payments must be linked to a person's bank account to make payment transactions. As a digital wallet, this payment
mechanism is considered new and vulnerable to fraudulent transactions, and data breaches that can harm consumers
(Scanio and Glasgow, 2015).
Previous studies have shown that there are many types of risks associated with the internet or online transactions
including product performance risks, financial risks, time/convenience risks, and psychological risks (Forsythe & Shi,
2003). In general, most of all studies found that the effect of perceived risk on behavior was negative which prevented a
person from overusing electronic transactions.
The emergence of COVID-19 has made people aware to avoid transmitting the virus due to cash payments. As a
result, they began to shift to using non-physical money such as electronic payments (eg, e-wallet, e-money, e-cash)
(Rossi, 2014). Unfortunately, the empirical findings on this issue remain to be understood.

This study aims to measure the factors that influence users to use electronic payments . There are several factors
that encourage users to want to use electronic payments, including their level of knowledge in using it. For example,
users already know how to access and the benefits of making payments will be faster without having to enter too many
details every time. On the other hand, users may want Electronic payments to eliminate the need for intermediaries.
Cashiers are no longer needed in stores as transactions can be made with just a tap on the smartphone or simply by
scanning it. Transaction costs for businesses are reduced. From an entrepreneur's perspective, businesses that use this
payment method have a competitive advantage over others because it adds to the entire consumer experience.
At the individual level, they may want to adopt electronic payments because there are facilities and innovations
for the purpose of paying for food or transportation. Due to the lack of studies on this topic, this study contributes to the
literature by examining the effects of perceived risk, government support and perceived usefulness on customers
intending to use electronic payments during the COVID-19 outbreak. To provide more useful insights, another major
contribution of this research is to investigate the group differences between users as consumers and users as
sellers/entrepreneurs who implement electronic payments into their businesses.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
The pandemic has changed people's lifestyles, especially in the use of money and electronic transactions (Abidin
et al., 2020). For entrepreneurs, traditional businesses that previously only accepted cash payments are now open to
electronic payments to increase their reach and market share. For consumers, users begin to feel the need for
convenience. They want financial transactions to be easier. They avoid long queues in stores to make payments, save
shopping time and ultimately have a more satisfying buying experience while at home (Arnold et al., 2005).
Many strategies are adopted by e-wallet companies in maintaining their user base. They may add features such
as online transactions, reloads, ticket bookings, demonetization to provide holiday bonuses and big discounts. Most of the
users might agree with the big prizes, however, other users might be concerned about such services which could impact
their loyalty to the E wallet company (Hayashi and Bradford, 2014). Thus, additional features can form consumer loyalty
if the company is consistent with its promises and continues to provide quality services to its customers with various
monetary benefits with technical advantages as well as confidentiality and security during payments. In the context of
this research, the hypothesis that links between perceived benefits and additional features plays a role in shaping
consumer loyalty.
H1a: Perceived benefits can shape consumer loyalty.
H1b: Perceived benefits can increase intention to use electronic payments.
Technical support is also important because it can be a factor that users consider in choosing a mobile wallet
(Singh et al., 2020). Previous research shows 54% of respondents strongly agree to use the cashless payment method if
the vendor has technical support to help them when there is a problem with their e-wallet (Jesuthasan and Umakanth,
2021). They also want problems to be resolved quickly so they don't cause security concerns. However, technical support
also has an impact on high data access costs. Several studies also emphasize the importance of vendor awareness in
working with trusted online merchants and intermediaries. Thus, three new hypotheses are proposed regarding service
quality, intention to use e-payments and how perceived usefulness mediates perceived risk and intention to use e-
payments.
H2: Quality service forms intention to use electronic payments
H3: Technical support forms an intention to use electronic payments
3. RESEARCH METHOD
3.1. Data collection and sampling techniques
A quantitative approach was used by distributing online questionnaires to a sample of respondents in Jakarta and
Tangerang. The two regions were selected purposively based on the total active cases of COVID-19. Electronic payments
in this study are all server-based non-bank electronic payments. Surveys are distributed to generate insights about the
factors that influence consumer preferences. Primary data was collected from a convenience sampling survey submitted
via Google Forms. The responses from each respondent are recorded and classified appropriately to generate insights.
The secondary data collected were collected from journals, magazines, and websites. The sample was distributed online
with a total of 250 questionnaires. 230 questionnaires were returned, 30 were incomplete, and 200 were processed.
In this study, the outer reflective models used are reliability indicators (outer loading), construct reliability
(Cronbach's alpha and composite reliability), construct validity (Average Variance Extracted-AVE), and discriminant
validity (Heterotrait-Monotrait Ratio). In the Outer model output test, 27 indicators meet the Outer loading requirements.
Of the 27 reflective indicators in the research survey, two indicators, CY 5, and TS 3, were excluded from the digital-
based process variables. The outer model test results in Table 2 show that all reliable indicators in the research model are
in accordance with the required outer loading value. Here are the results:
b. Path Coefficient
To assess the significance of the predictive model in testing the structural model, it can be seen from the t-
statistical value between the independent variable and the dependent variable in the Path Coefficient table at the Smartpls
output below:
c. Hypothesis
1) Perceived benefits can shape consumer loyalty
It was found that the T-statistical value (3.106) > 1.96 and the original sample value was 0.205 (positive sign).
From these results, the hypothesis which states that perceived benefits have a positive effect on consumer loyalty is
accepted. Perception of benefits has a positive and significant effect on consumer loyalty. This is supported by Candra,
Nuruttarwiyah, & Hapsari (2020) suggesting that the perception of the ease of using a technology will have an impact on
increasing the desire to use the technology. The convenience felt by technology users will increase their interest in using
technology. Consumers want the convenience of their transaction activities. Several previous studies conducted by
(Aditya & Wardhana, 2016; Chitra Laksmi Rithmaya, 2016; Wahyuningtyas, 2016; Wibowo & Rosmauli, 2015) show
that the perceived usefulness variable has a positive and significant influence on online transaction interest.
5. RESULT
Based on the analysis and discussion above, it is concluded that perceived benefits have a positive and
significant effect on consumer loyalty, perceived benefits have a positive and significant effect on intentions to use e-
wallet, technical support has no positive and significant effect on intentions to use e-wallet, additional features have a
positive and significant impact on intentions using e-wallet, additional features have a positive and significant effect on
consumer loyalty and intention to use e-wallet payments has a positive and significant effect on consumer loyalty.
This article has a contribution that can add insight into the attitudes of users that affect the intention to use in the
e-wallet, including what underlies their intention to use behavior. In addition, this research can also be useful to support
further research related to the intention to use theory. The current research is an important contribution to the theory of
customer loyalty intentions by integrating perceptions of fairness, trustworthiness, and the two main variables of TAM,
namely perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use.
LIMITATIONS
While the findings are encouraging and useful, the study has certain limitations. Partly because the survey
respondents were limited to e-wallet users in Jakarta, this study may have limited application to the B2C e-commerce
market in Indonesia. Furthermore the results might be influenced by self-selection bias as our sample consisted only of
ewallet users. Individuals who have stopped shopping online may have different perceptions about the influence of TAM
constructs, trust, and the three dimensions of justice, so they can be influenced differently by them.
