Short answer
Among the 77 tracked mobile checkout apps, Health & Fitness leads with 11 companies and Shopping follows with 8 source[1]. Every other vertical has 7 or fewer, so this family reports absolute company counts, not percentages — no vertical is large enough for a valid rate source[2]. Web checkout companies (152) are similarly spread, led by Shopping (9) source[3].
Health & Fitness (11) and Shopping (8) lead the 77 tracked mobile checkout apps; every other vertical has 7 or fewer — Lazyweb Research, July 2026.

The finding: checkout flows are spread thin across verticals
The 77 mobile checkout apps break down by app-store category as absolute counts (no vertical reaches a percentage-worthy N) source[1]source[2].
| Vertical (mobile) | Companies |
|---|---|
| Health & Fitness | 11 |
| Shopping | 8 |
| Education | 7 |
| Entertainment | 6 |
| Food & Drink | 6 |
| Finance | 5 |
| Travel | 4 |
| Photo & Video | 4 |
| Productivity | 4 |
| Lifestyle | 4 |
On the web side, the 152 checkout companies are led by Shopping (9), Productivity (7), and Food & Drink (6) — again all below N=10 source[3].
How to apply this
If you want peer checkout references in your vertical, expect a handful of apps, not a statistically representative sample. Health & Fitness (11 mobile companies) and Shopping (8 mobile, 9 web) are the only verticals with enough coverage to be worth browsing as a set source[1]source[3]. For everything else, pick specific named anchors from the corpus rather than trying to generalize a 'category norm' from 4-6 companies source[2].
Caveats
No per-vertical percentage cut is valid here: the largest mobile vertical is 11 companies and the largest web vertical is 9, all well below the threshold for a stable rate source[2]. Verticals with fewer than 8 companies (Education, Entertainment, Food & Drink, and below) should be read strictly as raw counts. The web taxonomy is partly null/mixed (5 companies uncategorized), so web vertical counts are approximate source[3].
