The growth of digital technologies has changed the way of doing financial transactions. Even though the transaction value for financial technology in 2018 grew by 24%, the financial inclusion rate in Indonesia is still low, with 64% unbanked. The aim of the study was to analyze the factors of the growing digital technology that influence customer decisions in choosing financial technology services using customer knowledge as the intervening variable. The growing digital technology is measured using social networking, regulatory services, and financial service facilities variables. The sample of this research focused on the microsegment customers located in Java Island. Statistical data are analyzed using Algorithm PLS. Results show that customer decision in choosing financial technology services was strongly influenced by customer knowledge. Customer knowledge was formed from information gathered from the social network, the formal assurance by the government, the financial service facilities, and financial inclusivity. The study recommends a need to educate, promote, and provide adequate information to increase familiarity and literacy rate with regard to financial technology. The study also recommends an urgent clear government regulation to protect the interests of customers and industries.

Abstract: Currently the development of technology is growing very rapidly and has entered into all sectors, including the financial sector. With the technology to the financial sector, it is slowly transforming the financial industry into the digital era. The combination of Financial Technique (Fintech) with financial institutions, especially sharia financial institutions, is considered to increase financial inclusiveness in agriculture. Inclusion is a situation where the public is not aware of access to digital finance.The emergence of problems in the first agricultural sector due to lack of land, secondly due to lack of farmer capital and thirdly due to lack of land processors made modernization of technology create agricultural financial technology as an alternative to increase financial inclusion in agriculture.The use of fintech agro in Indonesia is felt to be lacking because of constraints such as lack of literacy to the community, poorly trained human resources, lack of legislation and lack of network access to remote villages. Financial inclusion can increase with the support of the government to improve supporting facilities and infrastructure for the use of fintech agro in Indonesia. الملخص: في الوقت الحالي ينمو تطوير التكنولوجيا بسرعة كبيرة وقد دخل في جميع القطاعات، بما في ذلك القطاع المالي. ومع دخول التكنولوجيا إلى القطاع المالي، فإنها تحول الصناعة المالية إلى العصر الرقمي. ويشعر مزيج من التقنية المالية  مع المؤسسات المالية، وخاصة المؤسسات المالية الشرعية، تزيد التمويل في مجال الزراعة. ظهور مشاكل في القطاع الزراعي الأول بسبب عدم وجود الأراضي، وثانياً بسبب نقص رأس المال الفلاحي، وثالثاً بسبب عدم وجود معالجي الأراضي، أدى تحديث التكنولوجيا إلى خلق التكنولوجيا الزراعية المالية كبديل لزيادة الشمول المالي في الزراعة. ومن المعتقد أن استخدام التكنولوجيا الزراعية في إندونيسيا يفتقر إلى القيود بسبب الافتقار إلى معرفة القراءة والكتابة لدى المجتمع، والموارد البشرية المدربة تدريجيًا، وعدم وجود تشريعات، وعدم الوصول إلى الشبكة إلى القرى النائية. يمكن أن يزيد الإدماج المالي بدعم من الحكومة لتحسين المرافق الداعمة والبنية التحتية لاستخدام التكنولوجيا الزراعية في إندونيسيا.                                         Abstrak: Saat  ini  perkembangan teknologi berkembang sangat pesat  dan telah masuk ke semua sector, diantaranya adalah sektor keuangan. Dengan masuknya teknologi ke sector keungan, maka secara perlahan  mengubah industry keuangan ke era digital. Perpaduan antara Financial Technlogi (Fintech) dengan lembaga keuangan  khususnya lembaga keuangan syariah dirasa dapat meningkatkan inklusif keuangan pada bidang pertanian. Inklusi adalah sebuah keadaan di mana masyarakat kurang paham terhadap akses keuangan digital.Munculnya permasalahan pada bidang pertanian pertama karena kurangnya lahan, kedua karena kurangya modal petani dan ketiga karena kurangnya pengolah lahan membuat modernisasi teknologi menciptakan teknologi financial  agro pertanian sebagai alternative meningkatkan inklusi keuangan pada bidang pertanian.Penggunan fintech agro di Indonesia dirasa masih kurang karena adanya kendala seperti kurangnya literasi kepada masyarakat, Sumber daya manusia yang kurang dibina, peraturan perundang-undangan yang kurang dan kurangnya akses jaringan ke dalam pelosok desa. Inklusi keuangan bisa  meningkat dengan adanya dukungan dari pemerintah guna peningkatan sarana dan prasarana penunjang untuk penggunaan fintech agro di Indonesia.

Branchless Banking is one of the programs of Indonesia's financial inclusion strategy. The programs' name is "Financial Service Without Office in the Framework of Inclusive Financial" which called “Laku Pandai.” This study aims to portrait the implementation of the Branchless Banking program concerning the obstacles that occurred to achieve program objectives. The research conducted using qualitative methods. The existence of Branchless Banking agents close to the community has fulfilled the program objective, to make an easy way for society to do financial transactions without having to go to the bank office. Therefore, the implementation of the Branchless Banking program met the criteria for eliminating non-price barriers in financial services in remote areas. However, delegation authority to the agent as an extension of the bank to provide limited financial services has encouraged agents to engage in moral hazard behaviors by charging the tariff that greater than the official rate set by the managing bank. It showed that the agent has taken the consumer surplus provided by the Branchless Banking technology. Although accepted by society since considerably cheaper than the fee to go to the nearest bank office, that condition becomes a price barrier for the future development of Branchless Banking.
