Abstract

Online shopping is one of the most popular online activities worldwide, in 2020, retail e-commerce sales worldwide amounted to 4.28 trillion US dollars and e-retail revenues are projected to grow to 5.4 trillion US dollars in 2022. Cornershop was born in 2015 with an initial capital of US $ 300 thousand. They managed to raise US $ 30 million and in just six years later, and after Uber announced that it would take 100% of the company, it was valued at no less than US $ 3,000 million. The present study aimed to model the continuity of use of the Cornershop app. The proposed model was made up of six latent variables, based on UTAUT2 which 8 hypotheses were proposed to explain the Behavioral Intention (BI) to use Cornershop. To obtain data, a survey was applied through SurveyMonkey, which consisted of 32 questions, intended to measure observable variables associated with the latent constructs of the model, and study the demographic profile of respondent that are users of Cornershop. Based on these results, it is possible to conclude that Performance Expectancy, Habit, Price Value, Hedonic Motivation and Utilitarian Motivation, are statistically significant when predicting Behavioral Intention to use Cornershop. Other results, conclusions, and theoretical and practical recommendations are further discussed along the paper.
