Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of religious influencers’ credibility on followers’ religiosity, social media engagement, and donation intention. Primary data was acquired through online surveys to 204 Instagram and TikTok followers of the religious influencers. PLS-SEM technique was utilized to assess the structural model in the study. The results show that the credibility of religious influencers, respectively, has a direct and significant effect on followers’ religiosity, social media engagement, and donation intention. Followers’ religiosity significantly mediates the effect of religious influencers’ credibility on followers’ social media engagement. In addition, followers’ social media engagement appears to be a significant mediating variable of the effect of religious influencers’ credibility on followers’ donation intention.
