description The theoretical framework of the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) has been widely used in analysing behavioural intentions to adopt Islamic finance. However, there is still little research investigating the adoption of Islamic microfinance. This study aims to determine the factors influencing behavioural intentions to adopt Islamic microfinance by developing the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB). The development is done by adding religiosity and knowledge variables as antecedents of attitude. A random sample of 262 members of Islamic microfinance. Variance-based partial least-squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) was employed for data analysis. The results show that religiosity and have a significant influence on attitudes. Meanwhile, attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control also significantly positively affect behavioural intentions to adopt Islamic microfinance. Then subjective norms greatly determine behavioural intentions to adopt Islamic microfinance. The findings of this study are important for Islamic microfinance to change marketing strategies. Islamic microfinance managers must develop a positive attitude through creating awareness and benefits of Islamic microfinance services by involving community leaders, especially religious leaders.
