Supplementary notes
The question was phrased by the source as follows: "Which payment services have you used in the past 12 months? (multi-pick)". In all editions before 2025, the source asked two questions - which were discontinued in 2025: "Which online payment services have you used in the past 12 months? (multi-pick)" and "Which of these services have you used in the past 12 months to pay in stores, restaurants or other points of sale with your smartphone? (multi-pick)".
The countries provided are part of the extended questionnaire within Statista's Global Consumer Survey, meaning there are no other countries with this same information. More information on the methodology can be found here.
For countries/territories receiving the extended questionnaire, the Global Consumer Survey utilizes a rolling survey system with four survey waves per year: The most recent data set contains the interviews of the last 12 months. This ensures trend stability and a higher number of interviews available for analysis, allowing you to adequately analyze smaller target groups, media, and brands.
