Share is of the 119,264 sites using a payments tool; a site can use more than one. A flag means nearly all of a tool's sites are in that country. Arrows compare each tool's rank among sites launched in September with August. The line is its share of new sites over 90 days. Showing the top 15 of 1,403.
