Abstract
With the rapid development of fintech, mobile payments is rapidly being widely used in China. As a financial and economic connection point, vigorously developing the payment system is the inevitable choice to narrow the gap between urban and rural areas. Based on this, this study attempts to establish a random effect model in panel regression to analyse the impact of the development of third-party payment on the urban-rural income gap of 31 provinces and municipalities from 2013 to 2020 in China. The results show that the growth of third-party payment scale has a positive effect on narrowing the urban-rural income gap. Therefore, this paper suggests that increasing the construction of rural mobile payment is of great significance to improve farmers’ income. And finally puts forward the specific path of mobile payment construction.
