Internet-only banks (IOB) refer to financial institutions which provide services entirely through online digital platforms without physical branches. Although IOBs have been around for over 26 years, there is still room for investigating what factors motivate customers to use them continuously and extensively. Therefore, this study aims to examine what factors lead to customers' intention of continued use and cross-buying on IOBs by extending the Post-Acceptance Model of IS Continuance (PAMISC). The result shows that perceived economic benefit and ongoing trust have significant relationships with the intention of continued use and that ongoing trust has significant direct and mediating (via intention of continued use) relationships with the intention of cross-buying. Also, personal innovativeness positively moderates the relationship between ongoing trust and the intention of cross-buying. This study sheds light on the literature on branchless financial services and PAMISC. IOB practitioners should revisit the effectiveness of customers' economic benefits to establish ongoing trust with customers.

A book review is one of the most important sources of information which provide the descriptive and evaluative contents about books. Reviews have great influence on consumer behavior because they are believed to be more reliable than information provided by sellers. Readers who read a book review includes information about book decide whether they will buy or not. This study examines customer attitude change by book reviews with regarding to different type of information sources(experts and prior customers) and different directions of messages. We address the following research questions: (1) Can positive book reviews with credibility have a positive impact on acceptance of books? (2) Can negative book reviews with credibility have a negative impact on acceptance of books? The results shows that a credibility is an essential factor for affecting customers' mind. When positive book reviews were written, both expert and customer opinions have a positive impact on acceptance of customers. Given negative book reviews of experts, trustworthiness is more important than expertise. However, a objectivity of customer's reviews is more important.
