The rise of internet usage worldwide has created a new phenomenon of consumer behaviour, in which the consumers’ attention has been shifted to online purchasing. The increase confidence in technology and online payment sectors are causing a change in consumer behaviour, away from traditional methods (Khouloud, 2020). Statista (2018) reported an estimated amount of 1.8 billion people worldwide now purchase their goods online. According to the Internet World Statistics (2020), there are over 3 billion internet users globally, thus representing a 577% increase in growth when compared to the global population of internet users in 2000. This trend indicates that online shopping has a lot of potential and benefits to societies and businesses worldwide. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the best population in online shopping research for Malaysia context.
