The study aimed to promote and enhance mobile shopping acceptance and usage. The stimulus-response of consumer attention and interest was modelled to directly impact the intention to use mobile shopping, whilst mobile shopping intention predicts actual mobile shopping. The AIDA model of consumer decision-making and the technology adoption model informed the study. Data for the study were collected from participants in Harare, Zimbabwe, using a structured questionnaire. The study validated 211 responses, which were analysed using a structural equation modelling technique (SEM). The study confirmed the importance of mobile shopping for consumer engagement and recommended enhancing mobile advertising to boost attention and interest, thereby increasing mobile shopping.enSOCIAL SCIENCES::Business and economicsConsumer attentionConsumer psychologyBournemouth universityManagement and accountingModelling mobile advertising, consumer response and mobile shopping behavior. a post COVID-19 pandemic perspectiveArticle
