Penguatan Ketahanan Pangan melalui Pemberdayaan QRIS pada UMKM di RW 06 Desa Karangasem, Sukoharjo

This community service program is motivated by the low level of digital literacy among Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), who still rely on simple cash transactions. The objective of this activity is to improve digital literacy and QRIS usage skills among MSMEs actors in RW 06, Karangasem Village. The implementation method uses a community empowerment approach through socialization, technical training, mentoring, and the preparation of educational leaflets. Through empowerment activities, technical training, and mentoring, MSME actors are introduced to the QRIS digital payment system — starting from the account registration process to the creation of the QRIS barcode. The results of the program show that several MSMEs now have QRIS barcodes ready to be used for daily buying and selling transactions. In addition, an educational leaflet on the use of QRIS was created to support understanding among both business owners and consumers. With this program, it is expected that MSMEs in RW 06, Karangasem Village, will be able to improve transaction efficiency, expand market reach, and foster a culture of cashless transactions in the community. The QRIS empowerment program for MSMEs in RW 06, Karangasem Village, also contributes to the development and advancement of MSMEs in order to strengthen local food security in the village.
