Despite its widely studied, little academic attention is given to the personality traits - variety seeking, need to uniqueness, convenience preference, and innovativeness in the online shopping. Therefore, this study aims to offer insights by examining variety seeking, need to uniqueness, convenience preference, and innovativeness in influencing online purchase intention. In addition, this study extends its model by incorporating perceived trust variable in the personality and online purchase intention relationship.
