Abstract

The current systematic literature review aimed to document the breadth of fintech research in low-income areas. Three papers that satisfied the inclusion requirements were found after a thorough search of the Scopus database published between January 2007 and October 2024 using PRISMA. The synthesis of these articles shows that fintech in low-income communities has been conducted in Africa, the United States, and the Netherlands. In addition, research on this theme also focuses on the water supply and sanitation industry, banking, and new holistic sanitation projects. Additionally, the transition and development theory is one of the theories employed to elucidate this relationship. This work presents theoretical and practical contributions and ideas for future research.Tinjauan literatur sistematis ini bertujuan untuk mendokumentasikan cakupan penelitian fintech di wilayah berpendapatan rendah. Melalui pencarian menyeluruh pada basis data Scopus yang diterbitkan antara Januari 2007 hingga Oktober 2024 dengan menggunakan metode PRISMA, ditemukan tiga artikel yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi. Sintesis ketiga artikel tersebut menunjukkan bahwa penelitian mengenai fintech di komunitas berpendapatan rendah telah dilakukan di Afrika, Amerika Serikat, dan Belanda. Selain itu, riset pada tema ini juga berfokus pada industri penyediaan air dan sanitasi, perbankan, serta proyek sanitasi holistik yang baru. Lebih lanjut, teori transisi dan pembangunan merupakan salah satu teori yang digunakan untuk menjelaskan hubungan tersebut. Kajian ini memberikan kontribusi teoretis dan praktis serta menawarkan gagasan untuk penelitian di masa mendatang.
