| Summary | Online shopping is becoming more and more popular in China. This study investigates factors that might influence customer satisfaction towards online shopping. A theoretical framework was established to explain causal relationships between perceived benefits, perceived risks, trust in online shopping and customer satisfaction. Data was collected from 402 respondents who had experience in online shopping in mainland China. Correlations and regression analyses were done to reveal that three factors of perceived benefits (i.e., shopping convenience, product selection, and hedonic enjoyment), product risk, and trust in online shopping were significant predictors of customer satisfaction. Implications for e-marketers were discussed, and limitations and future research were presented. |
