Abstract

Due to the high market competition, customer loyalty becomes one of the biggest challenges in the digital wallet industry today. Therefore, it’s important for business players to understand consumer behavior in using digital wallet, not only limited to the adoption or acceptance phase, but also the post-adoption phase including customer loyalty. The purpose of this research is to explore the roles of satisfaction, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, facilitating conditions, habit, and switching barriers in influencing customer loyalty. The research model was tested using 158 valid responses from an online survey conducted in Indonesia. This research is a collective research design (descriptive research). The research model has been estimated using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results indicate that habit and satisfaction have a significant positive effect on customer loyalty. Besides that, satisfaction is proved as mediator with full mediation effect for performance expectancy and effort expectancy on indirect relations to customer loyalty. In this study, the facilitating conditions and switching barriers have no direct significant impact on customer loyalty. For researchers, this study complements previous research and deepens the theory of consumer behavior, specifically regarding customer loyalty in using digital wallet as mobile payment. For practitioners, the findings of this study can provide meaningful insights about customer loyalty or continuance usage behavior toward digital wallet or other financial technology to help develop effective business strategies.
