This study examined the importance of promotion and Perceived Ease of Use in the decision to use e-money prepaid software for the millennial generation in Indonesia. This study was quantitative research carried out through a field survey on some college students in West Sumatra province in Indonesia in 2021. Data were collected using a questionnaire that was distributed through Google Forms for 297 respondents and analyzed using Multiple Linear Regression. The finding has concluded that 51.6% of variations in the decision to use e-money prepaid software for young people could be explained by factors of promotion and Perceived Ease of Use. These two factors were strong predictors of the decision on using e-money for this consumer segment. Promotion and Perceived Ease of Use, both of them partially have a significant positive effect on consumer decisions to use e-money. This empirical finding has offered empirical evidence of consumer behavior by examining some predictors for the decision on the use of e-money for the millennial generation.
