Is there a significantly cleaner way to write this Measure?

Say I have this measure, which is certainly direct: 

 

# Card payments =
calculate([# of Total Pmts], Payment[PaymentTypeID] = 2) +
calculate([# of Total Pmts], Payment[Payment Type] = 3) + 

calculate([# of Total Pmts], Payment[Payment Type] = 5) +

calculate([# of Total Pmts], Payment[Payment Type] = 7) +

calculate([# of Total Pmts], Payment[Payment Type] = 😎 +

calculate([# of Total Pmts], Payment[Payment Type] = 9) +

calculate([# of Total Pmts], Payment[Payment Type] = 11)

 

But say in SQL, one could do something like: 

 

SELECT

      COUNT(p.id)

WHERE

      p.type IN (2,3,5,7,8,9,11)

FROM

      TableTable p

 

I'm kinda missing the IN here.  There's definitely different ways to write my measure above, but what way would be the cleanest/fastest to write?

Go for the containsrow function in dax to solve the query.I hope this helps ! feel free to reavh out,oif the problem still persists

 Card payments =calculate([# of Total Pmts],CONTAINSROW ({2,3,5,7,8,9,11},

      Payment[Payment Type]
