Cash Waqf is an important tool in Islam. Efforts by government agencies and non-government organizations (NGOs) to enhance the role of cash waqf have been increasing. In line with the growing technology, government acknowledged the importance of Information technology (IT), transparency and trust in the implementation of cash waqf. Therefore, this study is aimed to identify the significance of technology towards Cash Waqf collection. Technology acceptance and technology usage are two different terms which each of them might be able to influence the collection of Cash Waqf. It is because, currently collection of Cash Waqf is not at a good level, which concluded only RM0.28 per Muslim for Cash Waqf contribution. Therefore, looking for alternatives that could improve Cash Waqf collection is a good idea. Seeing that we are reached year of 2020 which has been targeted a long time ago with provided good technology, therefore implementation of effective technology nowadays could be one of the ways to encourage contribution of Cash Waqf. Acceptance of technology could lead to high usage of technology. Application of Unified Theory Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) is relevant to this situation. Thus, it can be concluded that, more people accept technology will encourage more contribution in cash waqf fund. Therefore, more collection in cash waqf fund.
