Abstract: In recent years, the steady growth of social welfare benefits, such as pensions, has significantly enhanced the consumption capacity and willingness of the elderly population, leading to emerging opportunities in China’s senior consumption market. Research reveals that the social security-driven “silver economy” is being efficiently unleashed through e-commerce platforms. The study highlights that the improvement of social security serves as a key engine in activating the senior market, while digital consumption channels form critical infrastructure for harnessing this potential. Together, they have given rise to a large and vibrant emerging consumer market.
