The study finding showed that all three variables, namely, costs, responsiveness and trust related factors positively influenced on usage of mobile ticketing. However, only costs and responsiveness related factors were strongly influencing factors, while trust related factors had positive but less significant influence on mobile ticketing use. The implication is that costs and responsiveness factors are good determinants of customers’ influence on using mobile ticketing than trust. In due regard, the researcher recommends significant investment in both costs and responsiveness related factors for good undertaking of the said venture.
