Tujuan dari kajian ini adalah untuk mengkaji tren perkembangan kajian Islamic fintech yang telah diterbitkan dalam jurnal yang terindeks Scopus dengan menggunakan kata kunci yaitu islamic fintech, islamic financial technology, sharia fintech, dan sharia financial technology. Analisis dilakukan terhadap karakteristik dan tren kata, serta abstrak, penulis, dan jurnal. Data yang dianalisis meliputi 95 artikel yang ditulis oleh 251 penulis dan terpublikasi dalam 56 jurnal. Metode analisis bibliometrik digunakan dengan menggunakan R Biblioshiny untuk menghasilkan peta bibliometrik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan peningkatan signifikan dalam jumlah publikasi tentang Islamic fintech. Dalam analisis bibliometrik, ditemukan bahwa para penulis cenderung mengkaji isu-isu terkait pengguna Islamic fintech dengan menggunakan beberapa teori penerimaan aplikasi, sehingga pendekatan kuantitatif lebih dominan. Beberapa tema penelitian yang memiliki potensi untuk berkembang di masa depan meliputi isu pengguna, layanan keuangan sosial Islam, dan dampak terhadap performa dan pertumbuhan ekonomi. Penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi bagi penelitian masa depan serta memberikan pembaruan ilmiah dalam penilaian publikasi Islamic fintech yang memiliki pentingnya baik dari segi praktis maupun teoritis bagi kalangan akademisi.
