Exploring factors affecting the adoption of Mobile Payment at physical stores

Abstract

This study develops and empirically tests a research model to comprehensively examine factors influencing the adoption of mobile payment at physical stores. In particular, this study proposes an integrated theoretical framework that combines the theory of technology acceptance model (TAM) and unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT). The results indicate that: attitude is the most important factor influencing users' intention to adopt offline mobile payment compared to perceived usefulness and social influence; personal innovativeness, perceived usefulness and promotional offer also have significant effects on attitude whereas the perceived ease of use is not as important as others but does with significant effect on perceived usefulness.
