Research methodology

  • Cross-sectional research sample from across Poland
  • This report is based primarily on the results of a comprehensive survey study designed by POLASIK Research and carried out by KANTAR TNS, a research agency.
  • The study is based on a representative nationwide quota random sample of 1631 entities from all of Poland.
  • Sampling was divided into 22 sectors and levels of employment in the following ranges: less then 10 employees, 10–49 employees, 50–249 employees, and 250+ employees.
  • The sample distribution according to city size and location (region and voivodeship) was consistent with the distribution for the population of studied types of entities according to the data provided by the Central Statistical Office of Poland.
  • The sample was weighted to the structure of the general population; hence, the results could be inferred for the whole sector of retail trade in services in Poland.

 


Scope of the study

  • The study covers all major types of transactions conducted on the retail payments market, i.e., consumer-to-business and citizen-to-government payment transactions.
  • Physical sales – entities dealing in the sale of products and services via physical distribution channels, i.e., shops, kiosks, service outlets, salons, workshops, restaurants, hotels, sales in vehicles and through sales representatives, etc.;

  • Administration – units of public administration, both local and central, receiving the payment of taxes, fees and other public-law liabilities of citizens.
