서비스 제공자와 고객 상호간에 상호작용의 특성을 밝히려는 연구는 광범위하게 진행되어 왔지만, 기술 접점(technology interfaces)에서의 고객과의 상호작용에 관한 연구는 다소 적은 편이었다. 본 연구는 이러한 관점에서 기술적 혁신과 진보가 고객-기업 상호작용의 중요한 요소가 되어가고 있는지를 확인하려고 하였다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 인터넷 서비스접점 품질과 고객만족에 미치는 요인들과의 관계를 SPSS 10.0 과 AMOS 4.0 프로그램을 이용하여 실증분석 하였다. 연구결과 인터넷 서비스접점 경험을 개선할 수 있는 디지털 기술의 역할을 확인할 수 있었다. 즉 기업의 웹사이트 이용이 고객에게 보다 나은 가치 있는 편익을 제공에 기여할 수 있다는 것이다.
