variables have an impact on online buying behavior as the Sig. P value is < 0.05.
Limitations
While conducting this research, some restrictions were encountered. The research was carried
out in Karachi and focused primarily on consumer behavior and attitudes.
Furthermore, one of the constraints encountered throughout this study was a lack of
knowledge, therefore the sample examined was still not particularly large. The Pakistani
population is not really that tech savvy; the country typically works mainly on paper and aren't
very good with technology, hence the vast majority of the people lacks access to online
platforms. Recommendations
As a result, our research contributes to practical settings. To begin, businesses can addressthe
concerns that prevent customers from making online purchases, such as outlining security
procedures and enforcing cyber security regulations to prevent cyber fraud.
Online letailers should improve the implementation of security and privacy mechanisms that
do not disclose ciedit or debit card information. Retailers make warranties and money-back
guarantees available to customers.
Offering free samples, building trust in the brand, and allowing customers to feel the material
are just a few ofthe ways online shopping can be promoted and consumers made
to use online platforms.
more willing
Due to illiteracy, the majority ofthe population in Pakistan does not know how to access online
platforms; therefore, retailers should work to educate everyone in the context of corporate
social responsibility.
