Abstract
Purpose
The current study examines the factors that affect trust and donation intention in donation-based crowdfunding.
Design/methodology/approach
The present study utilized web-based questionnaires to examine the donation intention of Malaysian donors in donation-based crowdfunding, employing the information system success (ISS) framework. The collected data were investigated using partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).
Findings
The findings of the study indicate that information quality, service quality and system quality have a significant positive effect on trust in donation-based crowdfunding. Additionally, donation intention in donation-based crowdfunding is significantly and positively influenced by information quality, service quality and trust.
Practical implications
The study’s results can be used by donation-based crowdfunding platforms to enhance their information, service and system quality to increase donor trust and intention to donate, including improving the platform’s design, navigation, aesthetics, comprehensibility of content, providing timely customer support and regularly updating and maintaining the system.
Originality/value
By exploring the relationship between information quality, service quality, system quality, trust and donation intention, this study contributes to the existing knowledge on donors’ behavior in crowdfunding.

期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Social Economics publishes original and peer-reviewed theoretical and empirical research in the field of social economics. Its focus is on the examination and analysis of the interaction between economic activity, individuals and communities. Social economics focuses on the relationship between social action and economies, and examines how social and ethical norms influence the behaviour of economic agents. It is inescapably normative and focuses on needs, rather than wants or preferences, and considers the wellbeing of individuals in communities: it accepts the possibility of a common good rather than conceiving of communities as merely aggregates of individual preferences and the problems of economics as coordinating those preferences. Therefore, contributions are invited which analyse and discuss well-being, welfare, the nature of the good society, governance and social policy, social and economic justice, social and individual economic motivation, and the associated normative and ethical implications of these as they express themselves in, for example, issues concerning the environment, labour and work, education, the role of families and women, inequality and poverty, health and human development.
