What this means

What to do with it.

Multibanco and MB WAY are the filters that matter: a shop that offers both but no Stripe, Klarna or Alma is the open target for a card or instalment pitch. PayPal shops run on Shopify first, then WooCommerce, PrestaShop, OpenCart and Magento, and fewer than half of them advertise.

Payment and BNPL teams

Target shops that offer Multibanco or MB WAY and no Klarna or Alma; the instalment slot is open on the majority of them, and both instalment names are far behind.

Ecommerce software and email tools

Work Shopify shops first in Portugal, then WooCommerce, PrestaShop, OpenCart and Magento, the platform order behind PayPal.

Marketplaces

Reach Portuguese sellers that offer Stripe or Klarna; both are smaller, specific groups compared with the PayPal, Multibanco and MB WAY mass.

Keep in mind
  • Multibanco or MB WAY named on a shop's site does not show which option buyers pick, and it says nothing about volume.
  • Few Portuguese shops offer cash on delivery, but a shop with no identified provider may still take cards; the missing name is a gap, not a finding.
