Abstract:

Mobile commerce (m-commerce) is gaining more and more attention from both the IS research community and business organisations. Building on an examination of extant technology acceptance literatures, this paper proposes a framework for understanding individual adoption of m-commerce products and services. We have identified the external variables exerting impact on the individual adoption of m-commerce products and services and grouped these variables into four categories, system characteristics, organisational support, individual differences, and environmental factors. We also present some important beliefs that could mediate the influences from external variables to behaviour intention and behaviour. The validity of this model depends on empirical studies that will be conducted in the future.
