Based on structural equation modeling, the research involved the application of an online survey among the target audience (consumers of collective purchasing sites), obtaining a sample of 283 respondents.

It was also found that confidence in members is associated with repurchase intention. The article contributes to a better understanding of the sense of social presence and the informational support in the formation of trust in sellers and in members who influence repurchase intentions.
