This study aims to explain why the economic dimension of sharia is implemented in digital zakat technology at the National Amil Zakat Agency (BAZNAS) in Indonesia. In Islamic finance, zakat is an obligatory process to donate yearly an excessive share of income (minimum 2.5%) on charity. Research on the implementation of technology in society is fundamental because digital zakat technology has significant potential for the benefit of the people. However, external and internal constraints are the main obstacles to maximizing zakat’s digital potential in its operationalization. Therefore, the strategic contribution of the sharia economy in good corporate governance to accompany the steps of digital zakat development is certainly expected to contribute well to the mustahik empowerment program. The research method used is explanative with the Islamic economic approach. The research’s originality is related to the novelty of digital technology development’s conceptual model in terms of positive law and sharia aspects. The research results reveal that the principle of sharia is one of the strategic factors for digital zakat. The strategic efficiency of the sharia economy towards digital zakat technology at BAZNAS plays an important role in increasing the interest of muzzaki to use digital zakat, therefore in particular digital zakat marketing cannot be separated from sharia law.
