Abstract

The ease of digital transactions has encouraged uncontrolled consumptive behavior among Generation Z, particularly vocational high school students. This community service-based research (PKM) aims to describe the implementation of the Digital Spending Smart Planning program as a financial awareness-building intervention model for Generation Z at SMK As-Su'udiyyah, South Tangerang. The activity was carried out using a participatory training method based on experiential learning, encompassing digital spending material delivery, smart planning workshops, financial creative content creation, and reflective quiz-based evaluation. A total of 35 students actively participated throughout the program. Pre-test and post-test measurements showed an average improvement in participant understanding of 74.8%, with the highest gain in smart planning/budgeting skills at 95.4%. The program successfully built reflective financial awareness while fostering commitments to wiser and more planned financial behavior among participants. These findings affirm the relevance of contextual training-based PKM programs as an effective strategy for empowering digital financial literacy among Generation Z in vocational school settings.
