Abstract

Under the background of global cross-border mobile commerce (m-commerce) integration, the importance of cross-border payment research is becoming increasingly prominent and urgent. The important value of this study is to empirically research the influence power of key elements in using two different mobile payment (m-payment) platforms in Korea. The extended unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2) has been widely applied in various studies because of its strong interpretive power. In Korea, there are a few empirical studies on Chinese users. Based on a survey of 908 Chinese participants (486 WeChat Pay’s Chinese users and 465 Kakao Pay’s Korean users) in Korea, this study is one application extending UTAUT2 by incorporating multi-group and multi-model constructs: UTAUT2, information system success (ISS) model, and an initial trust model (ITM), considering a multi-group analysis with some mediating variables (payment difference). By comparing the two different payment platforms’ characters, this manuscript provides a set of targeted measures to ensure Chinese WeChat Payment platform decision-makers create effective long-term strategic policies for cross-border m-payments in Korea, and eventually, benefit cross-border m-commerce and economic cooperation in Southeast Asia.

  • Social influence did not significantly affect behavioral intention.

    “Facilitating conditions, social influence, and hedonic motivation did not significantly affect behavioral intention, failing to support Hypotheses H2a, H6a, and H7.”

    From Unraveling the Determinants of Platform Economy Adoption in Developing Countries: An Extended Application of the UTAUT2 Model with a Privacy Calculus Perspective (2023) · cites this paper as [54]

    The Discussion (page unavailable in our copy) reports that social influence significantly affected usage intention for both WeChat Pay (β = 0.189, p < 0.01) and Kakao Pay (β = 0.213, p < 0.01). The Results section says the difference between the groups was not significant; that is not the same as a nonsignificant effect on intention. (LLM, conf=0.90)

    Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Social influence was significantly related to trust in technology (β = 0.567, p < 0.001).

    “Finally, social influence ( β = 0.567; p &lt; 0.001) and perceived risk ( β = 0.096; p &lt; 0.001) were significantly related to trust in technology, providing empirical support for Hypotheses H6b and H10b.”

    From Unraveling the Determinants of Platform Economy Adoption in Developing Countries: An Extended Application of the UTAUT2 Model with a Privacy Calculus Perspective (2023) · cites this paper as [54]

    In Data Collection and Results > Hypothesis Verification (Tables 4 and 6; page not provided), the paper reports significant paths from social influence to usage intention, not to trust: β = 0.189 and β = 0.213, respectively. Its H6b instead tests initial trust as a predictor of usage intention. The reported paths do not match the claimed β = 0.567 relationship. (LLM, conf=0.88)

    Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Price value plays a central role in the use of the platform economy, as users are more likely to trust and continue to use a technology if the perceived benefits outweigh the monetary costs.

    “It plays a central role in the use of the platform economy, as users are more likely to trust and continue to use a technology if the perceived benefits outweigh the monetary costs [1,54].”

    From Unraveling the Determinants of Platform Economy Adoption in Developing Countries: An Extended Application of the UTAUT2 Model with a Privacy Calculus Perspective (2023) · cites this paper as [54]

    The Research Model section says that when the expected benefits of m-payment applications exceed their costs, consumers are more inclined to adopt them; it also links higher price value to continued adoption. It discusses initial trust separately, but does not say that benefits outweighing monetary costs makes users more likely to trust a technology. Its discussion concerns mobile payments, not the platform economy generally. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
