- Abstract
Cross-border social commerce is a fast-growing business leveraging social networks, offering hope to reach potential buyers around the world. However, the risk perception of foreign products still discourages consumers from purchasing. According to the trust transfer theory and the trust risk perspective, we propose to establish trust through friends and platforms and examine the perceived risk and impact on purchase intention. To test our hypothesis, we conducted an online survey. A total of 213 social commuters from Indonesia and his users participated in the scenario-based survey. Based on Partial Least Squares (PLS) analysis, we discovered that customer trust can be transferred from friends and platforms to brands. This result has important implications for trust transfer theory. The study also provides suggestions for practitioners in developing strategies for cross-border trade.
