From the perspective of co-creation, the present study adopts qualitative and quantitative mixed research design applies theory trust examine the development of co-creation intention with respect to companionship travel. For independent variable, we employed the post user's competence (PUC). the dependent variable was participating user's value co-creation intention, the mediating variable was peer trust, and moderating variable was community reputation. In this way, we constructed moderated mediation model. Following three Situational experiments, we obtained the following results.

Community reputation had a direct, significant, positive impact on peer trust and value co-creation intention (VCI); it negatively moderated the relationship between PUC and peer trust for companion travel post users in addition to the competence of post users and VCI of participating users. Further, the interaction between community reputation and users' ability to travel together and their intention to do so was completely mediated by peer trust. On the basis of a systematic examination of value co-creation, we developed an empirical model for travel intention with respect to finding travel companionship in virtual tourist communities. We combined the theory of value co-creation with that of trust to underline the importance of interpersonal trust in value co-creation. Finally, regarding community platforms, we investigated the internal mechanisms and boundary conditions of virtual companion selection by tourists. Our conclusions should be beneficial for managers of community platforms with respect to user practice on their platforms. We believe our findings will be helpful in the following ways: improving the travelling ability of virtual tourists; enhancing trust among individuals in the virtual community: and promoting the reputation of community platforms.
