> Any usecounter stats you can share? Unfortunately no usecounters for two reasons:
1) Payment APIs in general have very low usage when compared to 'page loads', because the most popular sites on the web aren't merchants and so don't use them. For example, PaymentRequest.show is at 0.001 <https://chromestatus.com/metrics/feature/timeline/popularity/2895>. They're still very important, so we have to measure usage other ways :) 2) In particular for basic-card, it's actually just a method-type of PaymentRequest, so our top-level usecounters don't show it. We have internal stats that I can't share publicly due to sensitivity (Googlers, feel free to ping me for a link), but I can share that of transactions using PaymentRequest, basic-card is ~2% of all transactions and <1% of completed transactions. So it's a very niche feature that also performs poorly. Max has also done an analysis of the top 10 sites from UKM data that use basic-card. For 4, he couldn't get to the payments page or couldn't get it to trigger basic-card at all (possibly geographically gated), but for the remaining 6 he confirmed that all 6 function properly in a version of Chrome that has basic-card disabled (falling back to the same behavior they use for Firefox + Safari).
