This conference focuses on the intersection of behavioral economics and financial technology, examining how digital wallets and FinTech innovations influence consumer spending through the lens of mental accounting. It explores how the convenience, immediacy, and design of digital payment tools alter psychological perceptions of money, promote impulsive spending or better budgeting, and reshape financial decision-making frameworks. The event highlights empirical research and theoretical insights into the behavioral and technological factors driving shifts in consumption patterns and financial management.
