Factors influencing intentions to use Apple Pay: A behavioral perspective.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The study aims to investigate factors influencing Apple Pay adoption, focusing on lifestyle congruence, perceived security, perceived trust, perceived financial control, ease of use, and relative advantage. By applying the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) theory, it seeks to understand these factors' contributions to user perception and adoption, providing insights into user behavior and enhancing the effectiveness of digital payment solutions. A survey approach was employed, combining stratified random sampling and convenience sampling to collect data from major cities in Saudi Arabia, targeting Apple-pay users. The survey was distributed online via social media platforms. Data from 221 valid responses were analyzed using partial least squares structural equation modeling. The study revealed that the model explains 62.2% of the variance in the intention to use Apple Pay. Key findings include significant impacts of perceived financial control, relative advantage, perceived security, perceived trust, and ease of use on the intention to use Apple Pay. Lifestyle congruence and ease of use influenced usage intentions but not perceived relative advantage. These results underscore the importance of security, trust, and ease of use in driving Apple Pay adoption. The multi-group analysis findings indicate that younger users prioritize security and lifestyle congruence, while females value financial control and lifestyle fit, and males emphasize security and trust in their Apple Pay adoption decisions. This study uniquely integrates the DOI theory and TAM to examine Apple Pay adoption, highlighting the critical roles of perceived financial control, security, and trust. It expands traditional TAM by incorporating financial control, emphasizes security's impact on trust, and introduces lifestyle congruence as a significant adoption driver. This comprehensive framework provides valuable insights for digital payment adoption.
