Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between accessibility and customer satisfaction in online shopping among SMEs in Malaysia. Focusing on Generation X, Y, and Z consumers in the Klang Valley, data were collected from 202 respondents via a structured survey and analysed using SPSS (correlational analyses and reliability tests). The findings reveal a significant positive correlation between accessibility, price, and customer satisfaction, suggesting that improved accessibility and fair pricing enhance the e-commerce experience. This study extends the SERVQUAL framework to the digital context by integrating accessibility as a critical dimension of service quality. The study offers insights for SMEs on enhancing the user experience through inclusive design and transparent pricing. Fostering competitiveness in the digital economy.
