The use of electronic money (e-money) as a non-cash payment alternative has a huge potential in decreasing the use of cash money.

With e-money, every transaction is simpler, cheaper, and easier both for the buyers and sellers.

The data collection techniques used are literature study and questionnaire distributed to 100 respondents who ever used e-money in their transaction. The results of this research showed that the implementation of e-money is already good. But, there are some constraints in the aspect of service and technology. Those things are based on the measurement using the basic model of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).
