近年來，由於資訊網路社會化、運銷通路多元化及宅配產業蓬勃發展，導致團體購買（團購，Group Buying）蓬勃發展。在網際網路的普及化之下，隨著便利消費意識的抬頭，消費者可以揪團團購聰明消費五花八門的商品；團購網站的成立，也改變了過去商品售價是由賣家所決定的交易型態，選擇參與網路團購的消費者越來越多，也有越來越多的消費者把參與團購當成一種休閒活動。
團體購買是指消費者集合親朋好友，增加購買數量，藉此向賣方議價，團體購買對於買賣雙方都可以有降低彼此的交易成本，是一種對於買賣雙方互利之行銷方式。團購通路的蓬勃發展更為企業開啟行銷通路的新思維，團購通路利用宅配方式送達於消費者手中，或是超商取貨，可以將貨品指定送達家裡附近的超商門市，直接使用轉帳或是貨到付款，這種交易模式，由繁複的過程簡化到直接生產端與消費端的交易，與過去的運銷模式大有不同，對消費者而言更加方便。
本研究彙整專家學者的文獻，透澈剖析消費者對於團購新興通路的消費模式及需求，並提供團購商拓展團購新興通路之行銷策略建議，研究架構以團購消費者之「基本特性」、「消費者經驗」、「團購動機」及「商品促銷」四大構面，進行網路問卷調查以瞭解團購消費者之購買行為。
本研究目的在於探討消費者個人背景在進行網路團購時，與網路團購消費經驗、網路團購動機以及網路團購商品促銷三大因素間的相互影響。希望藉由此研究進一步了解消費者在進行網路團購時，是如何下決定以及是什麼因素影響其作決定。
本研究結果亦能夠提供團購客戶之決策依據，且能有效利用資源，提供消費者所需服務，藉此滿足消費者的期待，更能替商家創造競爭優勢，使買賣雙方皆能交易滿意，達到雙贏的局面。
