ABSTRACT

Super apps have reshaped digital ecosystems by integrating diverse services such as transportation, payments, and delivery into a single platform. This study extends the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) by incorporating trust and service-related attributes to explain users’ intention to adopt super apps. Survey data from 145 YandexGo users were analyzed using PLS-SEM. The results show that performance expectancy, trust, and service variety are significant predictors of adoption intention, while effort expectancy, facilitating conditions, and social influence are less influential. The analysis also confirms a trust transfer effect, where trust in the original service provider positively influences trust in its affiliated super app. The proposed model provides practical insights for super apps platform developers to strengthen trust and enrich service offerings to promote user adoption.
