In the process of service delivery, however, SSTs can’t avoid service failures. Previous research has proposed that customer intention toward future co-creation can be enhanced by participation in e-service recovery. Based on this literature stream, this study adopted SSTs as a research context (online shopping and ticketing) to investigate the effects of customer participation in e-service recovery and consumer readiness with regard to intention toward future co-creation. This study manipulated the level of customer participation in e-service recovery (high, medium and low participation levels) and SST service types (a shopping system and a ticketing system) to conduct a 2 × 3 between-subjects experimental design and obtained 331 valid samples. The results showed that as the level of customer participation in e-service recovery grows, their ability, extrinsic and intrinsic motivation with regard to future co-creation are increased. Also, as the level of customer ability and extrinsic motivation in future co-creation increases, customer has greater intention towards future co-creation. Therefore, this study suggests that SSTs service providers can increase the level of customer participation in e-service recovery and consumer readiness to enhance customer intention toward future co-creation, and hence, increase the likelihood of profitability potential.
