SimilarTech reports that Apple Pay is now the fifth most popular payment platform used by the top 10,000 websites. It maintains the same spot for the to 100,000 websites as well, and that’s with Apple Pay only being supported on 0.25% of websites available.

In the top 100,000 websites, Apple Pay on the web is still in the fifth position with 0.11%. Just remember that Apple Pay on the web launched in September, being supported on much fewer websites than the competition.
Apple Pay is currently available on 1,035 websites total according to the data. Comparatively, PayPal has over one million sites, followed by 38,000+ with Stripe, 13,000+ with Google Wallet, and 8500+ with Amazon Payments.
