his study aims to analyze the role of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) in Solo as a regulator and facilitator in providing fintech consumer protection through alternative dispute resolution, as well as to identify the obstacles encountered in its implementation. The study employs an empirical legal method with a descriptive qualitative approach. Primary data were obtained through interviews with the OJK in Solo, while secondary data were sourced from laws and regulations, academic literature, and official OJK reports. The results indicate that the OJK plays a role in regulating, supervising, and facilitating dispute resolution through the Consumer Protection Portal Application (APPK), as well as referring cases to the Financial Services Dispute Resolution Center (LAPS SJK) when internal resolution is not achieved. In addition, the OJK also conducts financial education as a form of preventive protection. Major challenges include low levels of financial and digital literacy, the complexity of proving financial well-being, limitations in the restoration of consumer rights, and difficulties in coordinating oversight. Therefore, improving public literacy, ensuring compliance by fintech providers, and fostering institutional synergy are necessary to achieve more effective consumer protection and provide legal certainty.References
