The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative research. By using the method of content analysis and using interviews, involved observation, this research uses documentation study as the data collection technique. The conclusion from the writing of this thesis is that from a review of sharia principles, there are sharia problems in the aspect of the contract, this is because this product does not have a contract nomenclature in product operations that creates ambiguity (Gharar), as well as from the transaction aspect because the bank does not restrict or control goods which are sold by merchants in collaboration with banks, so it is feared that they can be used to buy non-halal goods.
