In recent times, Fintech has developed rapidly along with the development of technology. The Covid-19 lockdown has created a huge opportunity in terms of increasing the number of users, and users’ experience. Previous studies have shown a number of factors affecting the use of financial technology services. However, what are the factors that are caused by the Covid-19 epidemic, and the ability to enhance competitive advantage and retain users is still lacking. Data were collected in Vietnam, comprising 247 respondents, and the SEM model was used to predict the effects. This study shows that users' users’ beliefs, security and privacy, web design of Fintech services, customer value, and attachment anxiety during prolonged lockdown without a feasible solution to date increase intention to adopt Fintech. Both theoretical and practical applications were discussed in this study.

Purpose Despite the wide availability of internet banking, levels of intention to use such facilities remain variable between countries. The purpose of this paper is to focus on e-banking in a country with low intention to use e-banking – Jordan – and to explain the slow uptake. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative method employing a cross-sectional survey was used as an appropriate way of meeting the research objectives. The survey was distributed to bank customers in Amman, Jordan, collecting a total of 328 completed questionnaires. SPSS and AMOS software were used, and multiple regression and artificial neural networks were applied to determine the relative impact and importance of e-banking predictors. Findings The statistical techniques revealed that several major factors, including perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, security and reasonable price, stand out as the barriers to intention to use e-banking services in Jordan. Originality/value This study theorizes a series of implications on intention to use e-banking. It draws the attention of Jordanian banks to the full functionality of their e-banking systems, emphasizing positive safety features, which could contribute to changing negative customer perceptions. It also contributes to eliciting the theory of customer value among banks by focusing on how they should properly enhance their use of shared value. Moreover, it will present to managers how e-banking predictors can send meaningful and timely information to customers.

Gamification has become an influential term in diverse fields ranging from education to systems development and marketing. The recent intensifying emphasis is attributable to enabling technologies and successful practical applications used for changing attitudes and increasing engagement. However, relevant academic studies are not wide-spread and this study aims to address this vital research gap. This study is structured to understand the factors affecting intention to use gamified systems and test whether they are affected by gender or age. An online survey study was conducted on a web-based gamified system (EmpireAvenue.com) and following a detailed screening process, a total of 168 fully complete questionnaires were attained. The theoretical model employed was developed upon technology acceptance model (TAM) and modified to incorporate an intrinsic motivation element, namely the “perceived enjoyment” construct. According to the findings, age and gender moderate the relationships between usefulness, ease of use, perceived enjoyment and intention to use the gamified system.

M-commerce has very rapidly developed into a very powerful way of reaching out to the consumer. M-commerce has been a massive success in terms of users’ adoption in some markets like Japan, while, astonishingly, not as thriving in others. However, its acceptance and level of adoption are low in Palestine compared to other countries. The research main objective is to classify the key variables that influence the acceptance of M-commerce among higher education students in Palestine by developing an M-commerce adoption Model based on an extension of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM).  A total of 430 questionnaires were collected and analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) technique. The findings revealed that perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, personnel innovation, security and privacy, subjective norms, and perceived trust are found to have an important effect on consumer behavioral intention to adopt M-commerce. These results will benefit stakeholders involved in M-commerce activities such as service providers, retailers, consumers, academicians, and students.

This paper examines factors affecting the intention to adopt mobile value‐added services (MVS) by women's micro and small businesses (WMSBs) in the Kingdom of Tonga. Previous research on technology acceptance reveals that perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness affect the intent to use technologies. Nevertheless, studies on behavior propose that societal values affect the intent to use. The study tries to fill the gap by examining those three variables' effects on the intent to adopt MVS in Tonga—a Pacific island nation that embraces a distinctive culture of mutuality and sharing. After surveying 267 women microbusiness owners, the study reveals that the most influential determinant of intent to use MVS is social support. Social support also affects perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness of MVS. Therefore, in collective cultures such as Tonga, leaders and decision-makers should involve social networks to expand the adoption of technologies.
