Description
Summary:The rapid technological development has influenced Indonesia’s payment system. Due to the pandemic, people tend to seek cashless payment method to limit physical contact. By using monthly time-series data from Bank Indonesia and Yahoo finance website during 2015 – 2020, this study employs Paired Samples and Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression methods to determine the impact of Covid-19 pandemic on E-Money transactions in Indonesia. This study uses E-Money transactions which consist of volume (Y1) and nominal value (Y2) of E-Money as dependent variables. Covid-19 (X1) as a dummy variable. Inflation Rate (X2) and Stock Market (X3) are included as control variables. The result shows that there is a significant difference in volume and nominal of E-Money transactions before and during the implementation of PSBB in Indonesia. Furthermore, Covid-19 correlates positively with nominal value of E-Money. Inflation correlates negatively with E-Money while stock market does not have any contribution to E-Money.
