How Poland goes online
Poles begin almost any search on Allegro, from a kettle to a car part, and treat OLX as the place where things are sold on rather than thrown out. At the till, BLIK turns payment into a short code generated in the banking app and entered at the terminal, quicker than finding a card. mObywatel holds the documents, and Onet or WP is where the day is checked before the first coffee.
Around 86.9%. With a population of about 37.5 million and 32.6 million online, roughly 4.9 million people are still offline — mostly because of rural coverage, device cost and age.
