In 2014, Bank Indonesia established the National Non-Cash Movement. Cashless payments are made digitally for changing financial transactions among people. This study aims to investigate whether gender, income, herding behavior in shopping, debt behavior, and almsgiving behavior affect the opportunities for using cashless payments in Sumatra, Indonesia. The sample consists of 500 people who come from five major cities in Sumatra, including Medan, Batam, Palembang, Padang, and Lampung. Logistic regression was used as the analytical tool. The results of the present study revealed that at alpha five percent, income and herding behavior in shopping had an effect on the use of cashless payments. The implication is that the use of cashless payments can be promoted through increasing the community income so that it can increase economic growth and efficiency at the same time. However, herding behaviour should not be excessively exercised despite it can increase the use of non-cash transactions.
