In recent years, with the rapid development of Internet technology, online shopping is also booming, and as an important part of it, mobile commerce is regarded as one of the greatest potential directions for developing.

To main analyze the influences of consumers’personal factors, products’ business factors and structural protection factors for mobile commerce consumers’ continuous trust, and then for mobile commerce consumers’ continuous using willing. Base on the research model, to design questionnaire and collect data for empirical analysis.
