Do anonymous ratings build trust in mobile money agents? Evidence from Uganda
REFNo: SS1344ES
The goal of the research is to determine if mobile money users in Uganda trust anonymous customer ratings, and if these ratings would make users more willing to trust unknown agents. Furthermore, the research will explore the extent to which social stigmas restrict information sharing about agent trustworthiness.
Specific Objectives
Establish whether anonymous reviews increase trust, both in behavioral games and in unknown mobile money agents
Investigate if social stigmas restrict info sharing about agent trustworthiness
