Findings – The results indicate that e-service quality has a positive and significant effect on repurchase intention and e-customer satisfaction. Furthermore, e-customer satisfaction significantly mediates the relationship between e-service quality and repurchase intention. These findings suggest that improving online service quality enhances customer satisfaction, which subsequently encourages repeat purchases. Originality/value – This study contributes to e-commerce and digital service literature by demonstrating the mediating role of e-customer satisfaction in the relationship between e-service quality and repurchase intention. The findings provide practical implications for e-commerce platforms in improving digital service quality to strengthen customer satisfaction and long-term customer retention.
