Research design, data, and methodology: This study was quantitative, and the researcher obtained data for analysis by distributing questionnaires to the target population. The index of Item–Objective Congruence (IOC), pilot test, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and Structural Equation Model (SEM) were methods utilized to analyze the data and test the research hypotheses proposed. Results: The study's findings revealed that independent variables, including system quality, information quality, service quality, perceived quality, popularity, and user satisfaction, had statistically significant impacts on customers online repurchase intention at Jingdong.com in China. However, demographic variables exhibited significance only through independent t-tests and analysis of variance. Conclusions: These research outcomes hold practical implications for organizations, managers, and stakeholders in Cross-border e-commerce website platforms. Additionally, insights from this study contribute to comprehending the nuances between Western and Asian cultures, aiding in developing culturally sensitive websites and targeted promotional efforts.
