Investigating Mobile Banking Continuance Intention: A Mixed-Methods Approach

Abstract

Building on IS research, this study investigates m-banking continuance from an emerging market perspective. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study presents m-banking continuance phenomenon through an integrated model. Study 1 focuses on qualitative interviews of mobile banking users, whereas study 2 empirically tests the conceptual model derived from literature and the results of study 1. Study 1 reveals three additional constructs, perceived ubiquity, perceived autonomy, and perceived security concerns to the existing literature-based constructs. However, the results of study 2—a survey of 390 m-banking users—provide empirical evidence to support the hypotheses drawn in the proposed conceptual model. The results reveal that perceived ubiquity, perceived usefulness, satisfaction, facilitating conditions, perceived security concerns, and trust have emerged as significant direct influencers on m-banking continuance. Moreover, the study offers practical academic and managerial implications regarding m-banking.
