ABSTRACT
E-wallet or electronic wallet has become crucial in our modern world these recent years. The current study attempts to develop a research model for exploring the factors affecting the use of e-wallet in an emerging country, Vietnam. Based on the Technology Acceptance Model, Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology and other related theories and studies, the research model is developed. In the study, determinants of the use of e-wallets include perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, perceived user interface, social influence, trust and perceived risk. Online and offline surveys are both conducted to collect the necessary data. SPSS and AMOS will be then utilized to process and analyze the collected data to examine if the data supports the proposed hypotheses regarding the impact of perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, perceived user interface, social influence, trust and perceived risk on customers' attitude and behavioral intention to use e-wallets.
