Demystifying the Key Antecedents of Consumer Trust in Online Shopping and Testing the Mediating Role of Consumer Trust: An Empirical Study
According to a report by financial services firm Morgan Stanley, online retail in India is estimated to grow over 1,200% to $200 bn by 2026, up from $15 bn in 2016. Lack of trust in online companies is a primary reason why many web users do not shop online. The present study is focused on the relationship of trust antecedents with consumer trust and consumer trust with online shopping. The data has been collected from 75 respondents through face-to-face interaction and Google forms. Linear regression has been applied to analyze the data. The results revealed that security and privacy concerns and perceived benefits are the major predictors of trust. However, familiarity with the site or prior knowledge, website design, layout and quality of information also positively impact trust. Consequently, consumer trust was found to have a significant relationship with online shopping.
