The lack of people’s purchasing power has a domino effect for entrepreneurs in Indonesia, especially UMKM who are the spearhead of the economy. In Indonesia, UMKM contribute 65% of GDP per year, this will certainly greatly affect the trade balance in Indonesia. The government must have started to act with the current conditions, a lot of assistance was given, especially to UMKM as a form of relaxation, but in fact access to financing has not reached all UMKM because of financial exclusion that occurs in the community, especially traders in the market of the city of Singaraja who also lack financial literacy. For this reason, the author is interested in examining how this pandemic period exacerbates the limitations of financial media which has been one of the government’s focuses to increase financial inclusion in Indonesia. The researcher used a sample of traders in the market in the city of Singaraja, recalling that the financial literacy of market participants was also quite minimal. This study uses a qualitative method by describing every perception and behavior observed by researchers through observation, in-depth interviews and documentation.
