“…MFS refers to the services that a service provider provides to its customer through personal digital assistance or mobile devices (Naruetharadhol et al, 2021;Uddin, 2022). It has created a massive opportunity for customers to get financial services from anywhere at any time (Lubna et al, 2018). In MFS, customers get an opportunity to operate financial transactions such as cash-in, cash-out, transfers, utility payments, and merchant payments (Afroze & Rista, 2022) and also to perform non-financial transactions, like balance inquiries and statements (Lan & Giang, 2021).…”

The present study empirically examines the impact of Fintech literacy on sustainable intention to use mobile financial services (MFS) with the intervening effect of customer satisfaction. The study used a purposive sampling technique in collecting data from 200 respondents by administering a wellstructured questionnaire. The partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was applied to measure the reliability and validity of data and test the study's hypotheses by using SmartPLS4. The empirical result shows that Fintech literacy has a significant and positive influence on customer satisfaction, and sustainable intention to use MFS. Likewise, customer satisfaction significantly affects sustainable intention to use MFS. The study reveals that customer satisfaction has a partial mediating effect on Fintech literacy and sustainable intention to use MFS. This study theoretically contributes to the current body of knowledge on Fintech literacy and mobile financial services literature. The outcome of the study can also be helpful to the MFS providers for taking initiatives in improving the Fintech knowledge of customers, their satisfaction and the sustainable usage intention of MFS.

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The importance and role of tourism around the world is not new; it is enough to mention that tourism represents one of the fastest-growing and most profitable global economic sectors. However, tourism has negative impacts in destinations, such as the displacement and relocation of communities and disruption of economic systems, socio-political processes and organizations. It must be recognized that new strategies are required, because growth itself is not sufficient to fight poverty and inequality. Local people, especially the disadvantaged sections of the communities, need to be protagonists and able to control the tourism sector and benefit from it. The aim of this paper is to contribute to wellbeing, sustainability, and tourism research by proposing issues and ways forward related to enhancing well-being through community-based tourism (CBT). The paper is divided into three sections. The first focuses on CBT approaches. The second concerns the conceptual framework of wellbeing, with special emphasis on wellbeing in tourism, including host/guest relations; we present different evaluations of wellbeing, e.g., (socio-cultural, psychological, economic, and environmental). The third section discusses how wellbeing is presented in CBT and proposes ways forward for research. The paper is theoretical, and is based on previous literature and institutional and organizational documents.
