Integrating gamification into mobile payment platform incentivizes people to use digital alternatives for payment and could spur user-centric, platform-mediated interactions. This study examines the relationship between perceived convenience and perceived security on individual users’ intention to use a gamified mobile payment platform in Malaysia; a developing country envisioned to build a cashless society. The partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) technique is employed on a final sample of 388 online users. The results show that perceived convenience has a strong but indirect effect on the intention to use. Perceived security has a strong and direct effect on intention to use and mediates the relationship between perceived convenience and intention to use. Furthermore, the reliability aspect of security is a top priority concern for users interested in using mobile payment. The multi-functional aspect of convenience is a top priority concern to attract users who are not interested in using mobile payment at first. The study discusses theoretical and practical implications for developing a dual strategy of ‘ensuring convenience’ and ‘assuring security’ to encourage the gamified mobile payment platform adoption in developing countries.

Abstract This research was conducted in August-October 2020 in Rokan Hilir Regency, the largest central of the fishing industry in Riau Province, Indonesia. The research objective to analyse the effect of trust on the fishing industry supply chain performance in the regency. Respondents were set 270 fishing companies based on the Slovin formula. They were taken purposively in four fishing centres, namely Panipahan (Pasir Limau Kapas district), Bagansiapiapi (Bangko), Kubu Babussalam, and Sinaboi. Collecting data using a closed questionnaire, containing a number of statements measured by a 7-point Likert scale. The data collected includes trust (credibility, top management capability, and government support), and supply chain performance (smooth of goods flow, financial flow, and information flow). Data analysed using the Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) method with the help of SmartPLS 3.3 software. The results showed that the trust has a positive and significant effect on the fishing industry performance in Rokan Hilir. This happens because the relationship between fellow entities of fishing industry supply chain occurs based on trust. The relationship between fishing companies (fisherman) and tauke (fish collectors, agents, and exporters) is based on patron-client ties, while the relationship between fellow tauke is based on family/blood ties. Both types of relationships have existed for years.
