Abstract: The study compares the acceptance of technology-based payment among mom-and-pop retail (small retailers) owners, and consumers; patronising the same, as technology-based payment is still a problem area in emerging markets like India. In this study, the numbers of participants are 408 in consumer category and 220 in retail category. Acceptance of technology-based payment among mom-and-pop store owners and consumers patronising the same in emerging markets such as India is influenced by experience and service charges of the technology-based payment. Results of the study can help mobile payment companies understand factors that are relevant to increasing adoption of technology in the context of merchants and consumers. The rational-adoption theory (R-A theory) is used to explain the comparative study of digital adoption mode of payment among owners and consumers by combining theory of diffusion of innovations (Rogers, 2003) and the rational choice theory (Allingham, 2002).

Keywords: technology-based payment; mom-and-pop stores; consumers; debit card; credit card; demographic variables; theory of diffusion of innovations; rational choice theory. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
