Abstract: The rapid growth of mobile commerce businesses and the increasing number of transactions using mobile
devices are strengthening mobile payments as an instrument of payment. In addition, the Covid-19 pandemic
situation makes digital transactions also continue to increase. Regardless of the benefits provided by mobile
payments, the adoption of mobile payments is still considered in the early stages and quite new for consumers
in Indonesia. Telecommunication infrastructure facilities that are not evenly distributed and aspects of data
security that become obstacles in the development of mobile payment services. Departing from these
problems, the use of mobile payments still needs to be increased especially during this pandemic. The purpose
of this study is to find out the factors that influence the intention to use mobile payment from the psychological
side by using independent variables, namely performance expectancy, facilitating conditions, hedonic
motivation, and perceived security, and a dependent variable that is behavioral intention. The method of data
analysis is descriptive statistics and multiple regression. The results of this study are there is a positive
influence between performance expectancy variables and hedonic motivation variables towards behavioral
intention variables while facilitating conditions and perceived security variables do not affect behavioral
intention variables.
1 INTRODUCTION
The rapid growth of mobile commerce in Indonesia is
in line with the increasing number of internet users
who reached 185 million people in 2019 (Statista
Research Department, 2020). This situation is also
strongly supported by the development of smartphone
ownership that reaches 63 percent of the total
population of Indonesia in 2019 (Statista Research
Department, 2020). In addition, the rapid growth of
mobile commerce in Indonesia is also indicated to
increase due to the increasing need for digital
transactions amid the Covid-19 pandemic (Ronal,
2020). Bank Indonesia stated that digital transactions
have increased during the Covid-19 pandemic to
17.31 percent (tribunnews, 2020).
The increasing number of transactions using
mobile devices further strengthen the role of mobile
payment as one of the most important payment tools
in the mobile commerce business. The use of mobile
payment to make payments to mobile commerce-
based businesses can provide ease and speed in
transacting and is also able to be a secure payment
solution during physical distancing and self-
quarantine Jung, Kwon, & Kim (2020), Moorthy et
al. (2019) dan Sivathanu (2018). In addition, the
provision of cash-back, gifts, and cash discounts to
mobile payment users also further adds aspects of
benefits and advantages in using mobile payment
(Singh, Sinha, & Cabanillas, 2020).
However, aside from the benefits of using mobile
payment services. This service is considered still in
its early stages and still fairly new for consumers in
Indonesia (Agusta, 2018). This is when compared to
other countries such as China, Finland, and Sweden
(Robin, 2020). Moreover, the construction of
infrastructure facilities, especially
telecommunication infrastructure that has not been
evenly distributed, is an obstacle in utilizing this
digitalization potential (Hafid, 2020).
In addition, the use of mobile payments involving
highly sensitive personal and financial data results in
aspects of security risks such as theft, fraudulent
transactions, hacker attacks, privacy breaches, and
data breaches become the main considerations for a
person to conduct non-cash transactions Merhi, Hone,

& Tarhini (2019) dan Marria (2018). Departing from
the problem, the use of mobile payment still needs to
be improved. Moreover, during the Covid-19
pandemic, the use of mobile payments that facilitate
non-cash payments can support government policies
in the prevention of the Covid-19 pandemic during
the treatment of physical distancing and self-
quarantine (Hidayat, 2020). So the use of mobile
payment at this time becomes more important than
ever. This study will try to re-examine the factors that
influence the intention to use mobile payments during
the Covid-19 pandemic based on the psychological
factors felt by the users by using the identification of
the UTAUT2 model.
2 THEORITICIAL STUDY
2.1 Unified Theory of Acceptance and
Used of Technology 2 (UTAUT 2)
This theory was developed by Venkatesh, Morris,
Davis, & Davis (2003) this model then modified by
Venkatesh, Thong, & Xu (2012) by including three
additional elements, namely, price value, hedonic
motivation, and habits as well as three demographic
variables, namely age, gender, and experience which
were used as moderators of the effects of forming
UTAUT2. This study is an adaptation of the research
of Moorthy et al. (2019) where the study did not use
price value, habit variables, and three demographic
variables, namely age, gender, and experience. Two
other variables that are not included in this study are
the effort expectancy and social influence variables
because they do not affect behavioral intentions to use
mobile payment services.
2.2 Theory of Perceived Risk
The concept of perceived risk was first developed by
Bauer (1960) who defined perceived risk as the
uncertainty felt in a buying situation. This concept is
based on the idea that every buying activity involves
risk. The theory of perceived risk itself has been used
before to explain consumer behavior in decision-
making (Wu, Chiu, & Chen, 2020). Risk plays an
important role in consumer behavior and makes an
important contribution to behavioral intention and
decision making in purchasing, where the greater the
sense of uncertainty felt, the greater the barrier for
users to use a technology (Arora & Rahul, 2018).
Perceived risk has several components or types,
namely financial performance, social, physical, time-
loss, and security (Sanayei & Bahmani, 2012). This
study will focus on Perceived security which is
defined as a feeling of uncertainty or concern
regarding the security of personal and financial data
information when using a product or service.
Information security of personal and financial data is
a key element of the online purchasing process
(Justine, Hill, Gaines, & Wilson, 2009). In addition,
perceived security is also one of the main barriers to
adopting mobile payments (Chang, 2014).
2.3 Literature Review
Jung, Kwon, & Kim (2020) researched the
motivations and barriers in accepting mobile payment
services (MPSs) in America using the UTAUT
theory. This study results that the intention to use
MPSs is determined by social influence, knowledge,
trust, compatibility, and performance expectancy.
Another study by Singh, Sinha, & Cabanillas (2020)
proposed combining the UTAUT2 model with the
TAM (Technology Acceptance Model) model to
examine the factors that influence the intention to use
a mobile wallet and the intention to recommend a
mobile wallet in India. This study found that the
variables of usefulness, perceived risk, ease of use,
and attitude influenced the intention to use a mobile
wallet and the intention to recommend a mobile
wallet.
The research of Moorthy et al. (2019) which
examined 225 samples of workers in Malaysia using
the UTAUT2 variable stated that performance
expectancy, facilitating conditions, hedonic
motivation, and perceived security have a significant
influence on behavioral intention to use mobile
payments. The research of Merhi, Hone, & Tarhini
(2019) also uses UTAUT2 theory to examine the
factors that inhibit and can influence the adoption of
mobile banking services. This study states that
perceived security (PS), performance expectancy
(PE), Hedonic motivations (HM) have a significant
effect on behavioral intentions in the adoption of
mobile banking services. However, social influence
is not significant.
Another study by Nelloh, Santoso, & Slamet
(2019) developed a hypothesis related to continuance
intention or the intention of sustainability in the use
of mobile payment services that depend on the
perspective of trust and cognitive aspects. This study
results that cognitive aspects are not significant on
continuance intention or the intention of
sustainability in mobile payment services. On the
other hand, trust and security aspects show a positive
influence on continuance intention in mobile payment
services.

2.4 Hypothesis Development
2.4.1 The Effect of Performance Expectancy
on Behavioral Intention
The perceived aspect of both the benefits and the
impact of use is expressed as an aspect of
performance expectancy. Every individual tends to
have the intention to use a technology if the benefits
and impacts of using it are by what is expected. Then
the researcher will test the following hypotheses:
H1: Performance expectancy has a positive effect
on behavioral intention to use mobile payment
2.4.2 The Effect of Facilitating Conditions
on Behavioral Intention
Technical and some operational infrastructures are
important in the development of mobile payment
services. In this case, it can be in the form of access
speed, availability of network infrastructure, and
security guarantees in digital transactions.
Facilitating conditions also have a positive
relationship to behavioral intention to use technology
according to Moorthy et al. (2019) and Shivathanu
(2018). Then the researcher will test the following
hypotheses:
H2: Facilitating conditions have a positive effect
on behavioral intention to use mobile payments
2.4.3 The Effect of Hedonic Motivation on
Behavioral Intention
Another important factor in researching consumer
behavior that has a significant and positive influence
on behavioral intention is Hedonic motivation
Moorthy et al. (2019), Merhi, Hone, & Tarhini
(2019), Sivathanu (2018). According to Moorthy et
al. (2019), if the use of technology can bring pleasure
and enjoyment to the user, the individual will tend to
accept the technology. Feelings of pleasure and
enjoyment expressed as aspects of hedonic
motivation can increase a person's interest in using a
particular service. Therefore, the researcher proposes
the following hypothesis:
H3: Hedonic motivation has a positive effect on
behavioral intention to use mobile payments
2.4.4 The Effect of Perceived Security on
Behavioral Intention
The situation where users feel safe in carrying out
transactions using mobile payments is very
important. The more stronger the security to protect
the financial and personal data the more willing
individual to adopt mobile payment. According to
some previous studies, there is a positive relationship
between perceived security and behavioral intention.
Merhi, Hone, & Tarhini (2019), Moorthy et al.
(2019), Nelloh, Santoso, & Slamet (2019) Oliveira,
Thomas, Baptista, & Campos (2016). To confirm the
impact of perceived security, the researcher
formulated the following hypothesis:
H4: Perceived security has a positive effect on
behavioral intention to use mobile payment
The research model can be seen in Figure 1:

3 RESEARCH METHOD
3.1 Population and Sample
Quantitative approach method was used by this study.
The population studied were students from two major
universities in the city of Batam (Batam Polytechnic
and Riau Islands University) among the age group
(17-25 years). Purposive sampling method was used
with a technique of non-probability sampling.
3.2 Variable Operations and
Measurement
3.2.1 Performance Expectancy
The level of trust or confidence of an individual in the
use of a technology that will help him achieve an
increase in work quality (Venkatesh, Thong, & Xu,
2012) this define as performance expectancy. There
are four indicators of measuring the perception of
ICAESS 2021 - The International Conference on Applied Economics and Social Science
266
performance expectancy including the level of
perceived benefits in completing the payment
process, the ability to complete the payment process
more quickly, the ability to facilitate, assist, and
support work and increase productivity.
3.2.2 Facilitating Conditions
Consumers' perceptions of the support and
infrastructure and technical resources available to
facilitate the use of a system is refer to the definition
of facilitating conditions (Venkatesh, Morris, Davis,
& Davis, 2003). There are four indicators of
measuring the perception of facilitating conditions in
this study including resources, the knowledge
required, compatibility with other technologies used,
and assistance from others when experiencing
difficulties (assistance).
3.2.3 Hedonic Motivation
According to Venkatesh, Thong, & Xu (2012), a
feeling of pleasure or joy that is felt when using
technology is defined as hedonic motivation. There
are three indicators of hedonic motivation
measurement, namely using mobile payment, namely
mobile payment is very fun, mobile payment is very
convenient, and mobile payment is very entertaining.
3.2.4 Perceived Security
According to Arpaci, Cetin, & Turetken (2015)
perceived security is an individual's belief that the
technology used ensures the security of sensitive
information used such as personal data and financial
transactions. In this case, when using mobile
payment, consumers will be asked to fill in their
phone number, pin code, location of consumption,
etc. Therefore, the financial data must be kept
confidential, not stored or used by other unauthorized
individuals or unauthorized users. The measurement
indicators of perceived security in this study include
guarantees of data security and confidentiality.
3.2.5 Behavioral Intention
The level of user intention to use new products or
services (in this case mobile payment services) in the
future is explain as behavioral intention (Venkatesh,
Morris, Davis, & Davis, 2003). There are three
indicators of measuring behavioral intention
perceptions, namely by assessing the consumer's
desire to keep utilize mobile payment henceforward,
the desire to utilize mobile payment in everyday life,
and consumer planning to use mobile payment
sustainably.
3.3 Data Processing and Analysis
Techniques
Multiple linear regression with SPPS was used in this
study with equation as follows :
BI = α +β1PE +β2FC+β3HM +β4PS+e
Formula information:

4.6.1 The Effect of Performance Expectancy
on Behavioral Intention
The results of the analysis based on table 9 show that
H1 is supported. This designate that the greater the
performance expectancy or benefits obtained by
mobile payment users, the greater the behavioral
intention or desire of users to use mobile payments.
In this case, students of Batam State Polytechnic and
Riau Islands University are in the age range (17-25
years). In addition, during the Covid-19 pandemic
where there are concerns about the spread of the
Covid-19 virus through physical money, the mobile
payment system is an option in offering convenience
and secure solutions for payments during physical
distancing and self-quarantine.
In compliance with earlier research, namely
Sivathanu (2018) and Oliveira, Thomas, Baptista, &
Campos (2016) that have the same result, as another
research by Sivathanu (2018) states that consumers
use mobile payment services because these services
can provide benefits to simplify and improve the
quality of their daily transactions.
4.6.2 The Effect of Facilitating Conditions
on Behavioral Intention
The outcome of the analysis based on table 9 show
that hypothesis H2 is not supported, namely
facilitating conditions do not affect behavioral
intention. This finding is in compliance with previous
research, namely Mahendra, Winarno, & Santosa
(2017). This research respondents were aged 17-25
years. Where mobile payment consumers at this age
believe that they already have sufficient resources and
knowledge to use mobile payment services. This is
because the younger population has more knowledge
to use a technology which in this case is a mobile
payment service. In addition, now supporting
facilities (facilitating conditions) for mobile
payments are easy to find and obtain by many people,
such as smartphones and internet networks.
4.6.3 The Effect of Hedonic motivation on
Behavioral intention
The outcomes of the analysis in table 4.12 show that
the H3 hypothesis is supported. In this study, mobile
payment is a new way of conducting financial
payment transactions where this service is considered
to be still in its early stages and is still quite new for
consumers in Indonesia. This is what causes the use
of mobile payments to be able to provide a sense of
pleasure, enjoyment, and comfort when using mobile
payments. In addition, mobile payment has many

diverse features, making it fun when used. Therefore,
users will tend to accept and continue to use mobile
payments.
Study by Morosan & Defranco (2016) stated that
in practice the use of mobile payments is not only
because of the usability aspect but also entertaining to
use. For example, by providing cash-back prizes, as
well as cash discounts to mobile payment users as
loyalty points to users.
4.6.4 The Effect of Perceived Security on
Behavioral Intention
The test outcomes that have been summarized in table
4.12 show that the H4 hypothesis is not supported,
namely perceived security does not affect behavioral
intention. This shows that the Batam State
Polytechnic students and the Riau Islands University
who were respondents in this study did not think too
much about security in using mobile payments.
The students as consumers are not afraid and do
not feel worried about the risks that exist when using
mobile payments. Risks can be in the form of theft,
fraudulent transactions, hacker attacks, privacy
violations, and data breaches. When using mobile
payment itself, users will be asked to provide their
phone number, pin code, location of consumption,
etc. which most students do not object to.
Respondents in this study did not feel worried if their
account could be used by other people, because the
password was only owned by the user. However, the
results of this study could be different if the research
respondents were extended to workers who have an
older age or business people. Where the greater the
possibility of the nominal payment transactions made
when using mobile payments, the higher the worry
about security and abuse.
4.7 Conclusion, Limitations,
Implications, and Sugesstions
4.7.1 Conclusion
Performance expectancy variable and the hedonic
motivation variable have positive influence on the
behavioral intention variable, while the facilitating
conditions variable and the perceived security
variable unaffected to the behavioral intention
variable.
4.7.2
Limitations
In conducting this research, the writer has several
limitations, namely as follows: (1) The data processed
by the research is obtained from a questionnaire
instrument which is purely derived from the
perception of respondents' answers, so that the results
of this study are subjective; (2) There are limited
locations and research subjects which are only
students of Batam State Polytechnic and Riau Islands
University, this will give different results if the
research subjects are carried out with a wider scope;
(3) This study only considers the context of
consumers, where the level of intention to use mobile
payments can also be influenced by the availability of
payment method options provided by merchants,
therefore further research can also look at it from the
merchant's point of view; (4) Only explains the
factors that influence the intention to use mobile
payments of 0.571 or 57.1%, so it is necessary to add
other factors beyond what this research proposes.
4.7.3
Implications
The implications of this study are aimed at knowing
the main factors that influence consumer intentions to
use mobile payment services, especially during the
Covid-19 pandemic. This study proposes four
hypotheses based on the results of the analysis, two
hypotheses are proven to affect the intention to use
mobile payments, and the other two hypotheses are
rejected. It was found that performance expectancy
and hedonic motivation affect the intention to use
mobile payments and facilitating conditions and
perceived security has no effect. This study shows
that the research model can explain the intention to
use mobile payment by 57.1% and the remaining
42.9% is influenced by other factors beyond what this
research proposes.
The results of this study indicate that performance
expectancy has the strongest influence on the
intention to use mobile payment based on its level of
significance. This is by previous studies, namely
Jung, Kwon, & Kim (2020), Moorthy et al. (2019),
Merhi, Hone, & Tarhini (2019), Sivathanu (2018),
Oliveira, Thomas, Baptista, & Campos (2016),
Morosan & Defranco (2016). Performance
expectancy has a strong influence on mobile payment
because each individual tends to have the intention to
use mobile payment services if the benefits and
impacts of the use obtained are by what is expected.
So that mobile payments must be designed according
to consumer needs, mobile payment service providers
in this case can further improve service performance,
so that they can further increase the usefulness of
transactions.
Likewise with hedonic motivation which has an
effect after performance expectancy. This is in line
with previous research by Moorthy et al. (2019),
The Role of Psychological Factors in the Intention to Use Mobile Payment
271
Merhi, Hone, & Tarhini (2019) and Sivathanu (2018).
When users feel happy and comfortable when using
mobile payment services, the intention to continue
using mobile payments will increase. Therefore,
hedonic motivation is an important factor in the use
of mobile payments. Thus, mobile payment service
providers can improve features and services on
mobile payment applications to provide an
entertaining and enjoyable transaction experience.
4.7.4 Sugesstions
Based on the limitations that have been described, the
suggestions for further research are: (1) Adding the
more to the quota of samples and expanding the
research place so that the research results can be more
accurate; (2) Adding other predictor factors that were
not previously present in this study, but still have a
relationship with the variables studied.
