It's (from top to bottom), blik, payment cards (including Google Pay and Apple), open banking transfers, and pay-by-links.
In Poland, Blik is the easiest way to pay online, it works by getting a one time 6-digit code from your banking app on your phone and typing it in the payment text box. Then you (in the banking app) get a notification with payment details, asking you to confirm. The best part is, that you can then save the account as the default in a cookie in your browser, so every time you pay with blik in the future, you no longer have to providr the code, you just get a notification. Much easier than cards IMO. Myself, wherever available and even Steam supports Blik nowadays), I prefer to pay with Blik.
Incomes with a downside of course, Visa and Mastercard customer protections (especially chargeback possibility) are better, though I've never had problems with Blik yet.
