The aim of the article, analysing factors that influence the users of e-commerce platforms, is to determine what factors influence the decisions made by the users of Lithuanian e-commerce platforms. The analysis of the scientific literature helped to identify the main factors influencing the decisions made by the users of e-commerce platforms, and the results of the quantitative survey allowed to determine that the decisions made by the users of Lithuanian e-commerce platforms depend on demographic factors, i.e. age, gender, place of residence, and monthly income.
