The growth of financial literacy is significant nowadays. Because of this, more people are becoming increasingly responsible in their financial planning, investments, and living expenses. In developing new technology, it is necessary to know the technological acceptance of the prospective users of the technology itself. This study aims to identify the primary factors influencing the technology acceptance levels of lower-middle socio-economic users for a digital financial literacy application. The proposed model in this research was developed based on UTAUT, TAM, and Usability model, and it consists of six primary constructs: (1) Performance Expectancy; (2) Effort Expectancy; (3) Social Influence; (4) Resources and Cost; (5) Satisfaction; (6) Behavior Intention. All the hypotheses used in this study were statistically measured using SmartPLS tools. This study found that because many lower-middle socio-economic users lack sufficient understanding of technology to properly utilize it, that a digital platform is not the right tool to teach them financial literacy.
