What this means
What to do with it.
PayPal covers a clear majority of the British market, so narrow it by what else the shop does. Ad activity is the sharpest cut here, since only a minority of PayPal shops advertise, and Shopify leads its platforms ahead of WooCommerce and Magento for the second cut. Stripe is the clear second provider in the United Kingdom, so PayPal shops without Stripe are the ones with room for a second processor.
Target PayPal shops in the United Kingdom that advertise now but do not offer Stripe, Square or Klarna, and lead with the second-provider gap.
Treat PayPal as a baseline in the United Kingdom and segment by platform; Shopify leads, then WooCommerce and Magento.
Reach PayPal shops in the United Kingdom that advertise now as sellers with a working checkout and a budget to grow, starting with Shopify stores.
