Nonetheless, Shopee Xpress encountered operational difficulties to meet Shopee's ever-increasing demand while ensuring consumer satisfaction. The objective of this research is to evaluate how satisfied consumers are with Shopee Xpress when they shop online on Shopee. In this research, four independent variables are studied, which are assurance, convenience, reliability, and price. A total of 150 respondents took part in an online survey via Google Forms. In conclusion, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of the consumer satisfaction of Shopee Xpress as an e-commerce service for online shopping on Shopee.
