ingness to pay.【Innovation/limitation】 This paper reveals the influence mechanism of user trust on their willingness to pay for knowl⁃

knowledge payment scenario. Additionally, it provides valuable insights for improving users' willingness to pay by exploring the moder⁃
ating effect of price and knowledge domain on the relationship between trust and users' willingness to pay for knowledge.
