The aim and purpose of this final paper is to show as the relationship between the use of digital payment methods and the perception of corruption. Through the final paper, the key concepts of corruption, corruption perception index, digital society and transformation, and digital (online) payment are defined. The chapter entitled Digitalization of society contains data on the impact of the introduction of digital technologies on the development of society, as well as general information on the development of the Internet. In the research part of the final paper, attention was paid to the analysis of the relationship, that is, to the measurement of the impact of digital payments on the perception of corruption in the member states of the European Union. Data on EU-27 citizens over the age of 15 who initiated or received a digital payment were taken from the World Bank at three measurement points: 2014, 2017 and 2021. The data on the Corruption Perception Index were taken from Eurostat, and were originally collected by Transparency International, and for the purposes of this analysis, the data in the previously mentioned three measurement points were also used. The trend of change in the first variable (persons who initiated or received digital payment) is shown and compared with the change in the level of corruption in the EU-27 countries. The results of the analysis show that the average Corruption Perception Index for the EU-27 did not change in the observed period, while differences are found within individual categories of the EU-27 countries. The assumption of the work that the share of online payments of the population is positively related to the perception of corruption has not been proven
