The purpose of this research is to identify technical and non-technical barriers to the adoption of payroll payment and accounting information systems (AIS) at Kut Technical Institute (KTI) in Iraq. The study also aims to design effective methods for promoting and upgrading Iraq's payroll payment and AIS, which inhibit payroll payment and AIS implementation. The primary objective of this study is to devise efficient strategies that can effectively promote and enhance payroll payment and AIS in the context of Iraq. This study uses a qualitative research method to delve into the perceptions, experiences, and challenges faced by KTI. A series of unstructured interviews were undertaken with a sample of 15 individuals affiliated with the Finance Division of KTI in order to collect data pertaining to the difficulties encountered by financial technology providers operating in Iraq. The interview questions were formulated with the intention of eliciting comprehensive insights, experiences, and perceptions pertaining to the subject matter under investigation. The study's findings unveiled a number of significant challenges encountered by KTI, encompassing technical difficulties, insufficient training, resistance towards adopting change, financial limitations, and organizational culture. The successful transition to a complete AIS depends on effectively addressing these challenges. This study enhances the current body of knowledge by offering valuable insights into the barriers that hinder the implementation of payroll payment and AIS at KTI in Iraq. The results possess the capacity to enhance financial management and reporting methodologies within the institution, as well as potentially offering advantages to other organizations in Iraq that encounter comparable difficulties. Furthermore, this study makes a valuable contribution to the existing body of literature on AIS in developing countries, specifically focusing on the potential impact on the overall economic development of Iraq. Through the implementation of this research and the identification of the obstacles and possibilities for enhancing payroll payment and AIS in Iraq, it is possible to formulate efficient strategies aimed at fostering financial inclusion and bolstering AIS within the nation
