Abstract

Over the past few years, the world has witnessed significant development in the area of mobile payment systems right from pre-paid mobile wallet to UPI based payment systems. The present study develops a research model to analyze mobile payment system continuance intention of consumers in the retail market. Data was collected among retail shoppers in India, through a survey-based questionnaire. The research hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling approach. Results support that task technology fit; satisfaction, facilitating conditions and convenience influence the mobile payment system users’ continuance intention. The findings states that among the influencing variables task technology fit has stronger effect on the continuance intention among the users.
