Abstract
Mobile advertising has gained substantial momentum in the past decade as it is expected
to surpass more than 100 billion dollars in the near future. However, this domain seems to be insufficient
in empirical testing. Hence, the aim of the current research was to empirically examine the determinants
of mobile marketing having impact on consumers’ attitude. These factors were also mediated by emotional
value in order to accomplish consumers’ related behavioral outcomes. A quantitative approach based upon a
cross-sectional administered survey was employed to collect the data from 343 university going student as
respondents. The Partial Least Square (PLS) two step path modeling was used to test the direct and indirect
hypotheses. The results indicate that mobile advertising unique features (i.e., timeliness and personalization)
directly and indirectly impact consumers’ attitude through emotional value. On the contrary, localization
element of mobile advertising has been found insignificant in influencing consumers’ attitude. Based on the
findings of the study, theoretical and practical contributions along with certain limitations and future research
recommendations are discussed consequently.
