However, for the time being, there are no significant players in the Polish e-commerce market among the shops that accept InPost Pay
InPost has just boasted of surpassing 3 million users of the InPost Pay service. However, the company did not disclose how many of this base of users are actively using the new solution, as registration for the service is not yet enough. What interests me more than the number of people who, for example, out of curiosity, activated the new function in the app is the number and names of shops in which the new tool can be used to pay for purchases.

As it turns out, the InPost Pay acceptance network already counts 240 e-commerce representatives. This is not much, considering there are almost 70,000 e-shops on the Polish market. However, it should be noted that during the past quarter, the parcel machine operator managed to double more than the number of shops accepting InPost Pay payments. At the end of March, we calculated on the cashless.pl website that it was available to pay in 110 places on the Internet with this tool.
Interestingly, among the shops accepting InPost Pay, there are still no significant representatives of the e-commerce industry in Poland. They may never decide to implement it, abandoning their fears of losing control over the shopping process or of competition from InPost itself.

For now, among the most well-known companies that have decided to integrate with InPost Pay are the owners of brands such as Gandalf, Ryłko, Ochnik, Komputronik, Kubota, and Tantis. The shops supporting the new payment instrument include InPost and Shop Out Of The Box. However, its offer is limited to items grouped into several categories bearing brands owned by InPost.
