This study examines how Digital Financial Literacy (DFL), Financial Attitudes (FA), and Financial Knowledge (FK) affect Financial Behavior (FB) among Generation Z in Greater Jakarta, with Financial Technology (FT) acting as both a direct predictor and a mediator. Based on data from 421 respondents analyzed using PLS-SEM, the results show that DFL and FA significantly influence FB both directly and through FT. In contrast, FK does not have a direct effect, but impacts FB indirectly via FT, highlighting the enabling role of technology in translating knowledge into action. The model demonstrates strong reliability and validity. These findings emphasize the importance of integrating digital literacy, attitudinal development, and fintech tools into educational initiatives to support more effective financial behavior among youth.
