Abstract

This research examines factors that contribute to credit card adoption among Malaysian consumers. This study investigates factors that lead to credit card adoption to provide useful insights to various parties such as marketers and policy makers. A total of 250 responds were collected from targeted sample by using pen and pencil questionnaires and Google form questionnaires. The research model contains the credit card adoption experience being the dependent variable test against six independent variables; credit card choice, alternative form of payment, available credit card information, credit card attributes, economic, demographic and socio-economic factors and attitudes towards credit card. Based on this framework, consumers’ credit card adoption experience will be investigated. This research discovers that alternative form of payment, credit card attributes and attitude towards credit card have significant influence towards credit card adoption experience. Credit card choice, available credit card information and economic, demographic and socio-economic factors were found to be not significant in this study. The output of this study provides basis for future research in this area and provides crucial recommendations to credit card marketers and policy makers to promote credit card adoption in Malaysia.
