Willingness to pay for information
Willingness to pay for information
Description:
For the providers of the location based service it is important to know which
are the valuable features of such service and how much are the users willing to
pay for them. The price for the service can then be set in a relation to the value of this service to the user.
We argue that the value of LBS to the users is in information provided by
this service. This information is valuable to the users only if it contributes to the improvement of a decision-making process which can be observed in
faster and better decisions, or in a lower risk of taking a wrong decision.[1]
