However, there has been no research on the relationship between m-commerce performance and effort expectancies, social influence, facilitating conditions, trust, risk, mobility, and personal innovation. Several factors have driven the usage of m-commerce. Therefore, the study aims to identify the acceptance factors affecting consumers' behavioural intention towards m-commerce applications by adopting the revised Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model. Concerning the behavioural choice towards m-commerce applications concerns, the following objectives were identified. First, to determine the acceptance factors affecting consumers' behavioural intention towards m-commerce applications.

This study employed a quantitative method, using a survey questionnaire, whereby 370 respondents participated in the overall data collection phase, which involved the surrounding Kuala Lumpur area. The collected data was analyzed using PLS-SEM software. Thus, this study identified eight factors, namely performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, mobility, personal innovation, perceived risk, and perceived trust, as influencing factors. Furthermore, the proposed model was tested with seven moderators: age, gender, experience, education level, income, marital, and payment method, to investigate the moderation relationship between these factors.
