Religious-based ethics and buy-now-pay-later re-usage intention among Muslim consumers in Indonesia and Malaysia: a commitment-trust theory perspective
This study investigates the effect of religious-based ethics (knowledge about riba and perceived riba risk) on Buy-Now-Pay-Later (BNPL) re-usage intention among Muslim consumers in Indonesia and Malaysia from the lens of commitment-trust theory.
