Abstract

The Ministry of Finance through the Directorate General of Treasury enacted a Money Supply (UP) policy through the Digital Payment and Marketplace (Digipay) mechanism on the work unit which aims to provide an efficient and effective payment system for government goods/ services expenditures, encourage efficient management of state finances and improve the quality of state treasury management. Digipay policy is currently still in the piloting stage, thus, not many researchers have studied this policy in Indonesia. This study aimed to provide a detailed overview of the Digipay policy as well as identify the problems and alternative solutions for the implementation of the policy. It used literature review methods, while using secondary data in the form of academic texts of government marketplace policies, regulations from the Director General of Treasury, and literature studies from various domestic and foreign journals considered relevant for analyzing Digipay policies. The analysis was carried using Dunn’s policy analysis consisting of: definition, prediction, prescription, description, and evaluation. The results of this study showed that the Digipay policy presents advantages in terms of effectiveness, efficiency, simplicity, and transparency, while having limitations when it comes to transaction security, uneven internet network distribution in Indonesia, inadequate human resources, and platform exclusivity. Furthermore, the authors provided alternative solutions to those problems, namely: increased transaction security assurance, provision of adequate internet network, HR training, and innovation in the flexibility of use.
