The structural equation modeling sampling formula are used to determine sample size and 250 e-questionnaires are collected. To data analysis and test the research hypotheses, SPSS 22.0 and Smart PLS 2.0 software are used.Findings: The findings in this study offer guidelines on how to utilize digitalization to leverage CX and the relevant suggestions are provided.Implications: This study contributes to academia and the industry, discussing both theoretical contributions and managerial implications.
