Abstract

This article examines the ongoing usage behavior of consumers utilizing Fintech services in a developing country. It proposes extensions to the ISSM model that include trust, security, and value for sustained use and e-WoM. The data, collected through a pretested survey with purposive sampling, yielded 421 responses from January to March 2024. These responses were analyzed using SmartPLS statistical software 4.0. The major findings suggest that consumer sustained usage behavior is significantly and positively influenced by perceived trust, information quality, service quality, and perceived value. Additionally, sustained usage behavior has a significant and positive influence on consumers' e-word of mouth. This article focuses on Fintech usage in Kazakhstan, a developing country, addressing a gap in existing research that predominantly centers on developed economies. Moreover, this context offers unique insights due to its rapid digital transformation initiatives and significant challenges in financial inclusion.
