The study uses the two-stage least squares model to analyze quarterly data for 2011Q1-2019Q4. The study found no relationship between stock and e-money in Indonesia, whereas, in Thailand, there was a relationship between stock and e-money. There is no relationship between e-money and stock in Indonesia and Thailand.

Stocks can affect the use of e-money due to the profits or losses of the stock that will impact the use of e-money.
