Despite having multiple risks when performing a purchase through social networks, yet it is becoming the trend of the era. For that, the significance of trust has arisen along with the need to recognize the elements that influence trust in social commerce. These basic elements were identified as familiarity, electronic word-of-mouth, high knowledge in internet and social networks and integration between ecommerce and social commerce.
