Attributed pro-quota: this payout address is shared, so volume is the operator-level figure divided by the services sharing it, while buyer and transaction counts stay whole. A declared convention, not an individually observed measure, and still a conservative undercount.
Currently sharing this payout address with PayAPI Market UK Company Data API, PayAPI Market UK Finance Data API, PayAPI Market UK Property Data API, PayAPI Market UK Vehicle Data API, PayAPI Market Weather Data API.
Top buyer share is a concentration signal, not part of the ranking score.

] OVER TIME
All charts use the 30d selector; each series spans only the dates it has data for. Every series is also served as JSON at /api/v1/services/uk-hmo-licence-api/price, /scores, /volume and /buyers. On-chain volume and distinct buyers are measured over the service's settlement address and are a conservative undercount (only settlements that reach a measured facilitator are counted). The on-chain series roll up hourly, so the latest day can be up to about an hour behind; distinct buyers are counted per payout address, so a service that settles to more than one address is an upper bound.
Median across 3 endpoints. Use the selector to isolate one.
checklist grew 11->14 on 2026-07-28; a step here is a metric change, not a regression
Measured site and economics pillars from the assessment history, so the latest value shown elsewhere on this page reads as a point on a trend rather than a permanent state.
Shared payout address (5 other services). These bars are the full shared address (operator-level), so do not sum them across the services that share it. Where a per-service figure is attributed, the assessment block and the ranking, it is the address total divided pro-quota by the 6 services sharing it: a declared convention, not an individually observed measure.
