Abstract

This study aimed to understand the Polish respondents’ mobile buying in terms of the number of mobile shopping transactions during the Covid-19 pandemic time against per-Covid-19 pandemic time based on the respondents’ gender. The objective was to determine whether the Polish female and male mobile shoppers demonstrated an incremental pattern in the average mobile shopping transactions per month during the Covid-19 pandemic versus pre-Covid-19 pandemic time. The quantitative approach dominated the analysis. Accordingly, there was no statistically significant difference in the average mobile shopping transactions per month during the Covid-19 pandemic time between the two groups. However, the results showed that mobile shopping is a solution to cope with the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, especially among female respondents. Moreover, to understand the influence of the Covid-19 pandemic on female and male mobile shoppers, the author would recommend conducting qualitative studies.
