Abstract

In this paper, we describe the enforcement of customer account creation from ecommerce vendors as a trustbuster element. This is the situation whereby ecommerce vendors require customers to create accounts, typically with usernames and passwords as opposed supporting transactions in as few steps as the technology can now allow. This can be argued as being a usability issue and/or an issue of trust, either of which carry with them an increasing likelihood for transactions to be abandoned by the users concerned.
