But there are still many obstacles in zakat collection, even though Indonesia has a large potential of zakah, in 2010 it reached IDR 106.6 trillion (1.7% of GDP in 2010). The use of fintech (financial technology) can be the way to optimize zakat collection in Indonesia. The benefits and conveniences offered by fintech can attract the millennials who tend to not be separated from their mobile phones.

Data collection was done through questionnaires and analyzed using Partial Least Square (PLS). The results show that perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and trust become the factors influence millennials to pay zakat through fintech. This research is beneficial for zakat institutions in Indonesia to be able to improve their fintech platforms so that zakat collection can be optimized.
