“…the service received by the customer has been met up to its expectation (Oliver, 1980;Weiss et al, 2005). Customer is satisfied by the product or service when its perception about any product or service is equivalent to its expectation (Dai and Salam, 2014;Kaura et al, 2015;Roy et al, 2016).

“…When other companies are also providing the convenience services to their customers, the company must have to differentiate itself by providing greater value to the customers as compared to their competitors in order to maintain its market position and to gain an advantage over them (Colwell et al, 2008). Many researchers have found that customer purchasing behaviour has been largely influenced by the convenience offered by the companies (Dai and Salam, 2014;Kaura et al, 2015;Roy et al, 2016). Berry et al (2002) in their study have described that five service convenience extents have been playing a major role in customer satisfaction and company's success.…”

“…The results showed that the five dimensions of online shopping convenience are: access, search, evaluation, transaction, and possession/post-purchase convenience. Mpinganjira [16] recommended four dimensions: search, evaluation, order, and possession convenience, whereas Roy et al [21] analyzed five service convenience types, including decision, access, transaction, benefit, and post-benefit. These dimensions are similar to those found in, and the variables were also based on Jiang et al [15].…”

“…The 4 types of customers' perceived fairness considered are interactional, procedural, outcome, and price, which are expected to influence customers' positive emotions. The more customers perceive fairness from the service they receive, the more positive emotions they will experience toward the service organiza-tion (Huang 2016;Roy et al 2016;Kimand Park 2017). This result supports those of previous studies such as by Namkung and Jang (2010) and Wen and Geng-qing Chi (2013).…”
