This study investigated the factors affecting consumers’ acceptance to use cashless payment services in Malaysia through the construction of the Cashless Society Acceptance (CSA) model. The Technology Readiness Index 2.0 and Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 were employed to create the CSA model. A total of 434 questionnaires were collected from Malaysian consumers, aged 18 years and above. The results show that Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, and Discomfort have the most significant influence on the consumers’ acceptance of cashless payment services with R-square of 71.4%.

Camping offers invaluable experiences in nature exploration, but the expense of acquiring camping gear can deter potential enthusiasts. To mitigate this, camping gear rental services emerge as a practical solution, promoting accessibility and reducing financial barriers. However, existing rental systems often encounter issues such as limited payment options, inconvenient pickup/return processes, and opaque management. In response, this paper introduces "Rent-n-Play," a web-based camping gear rental platform built on Laravel framework. It enables cashless transactions, offers pickup/delivery services, and employs a real-time admin system for transparent management. User feedback guided platform enhancements, including review systems and responsive support. The "Rent-n-Play" platform enhances user experience, fosters trust, and promotes sustainable camping practices, thus contributing to a more accessible and enjoyable camping culture.
