To do this comparison, I made a small spreadsheet which could (maybe, or not) help you. Here it is: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12-sWEe-gsoGm0kT5LMcM...
Feel free to add comments if you find any issue.

Paypal if you want me looking for alternative places to purchase your goods
If it's just a gateway (no transfer to PP), the consumer won't know the difference.
Is that even within Paypal's TOS? Can you front-end their web service and capture users' passwords purportedly for proxying?
I know that Sofort does that and I'm flabbergasted by my bank switching their stance from "wait, who's capturing our login tokens?" to "oh, you're talking about Sofort. Yeah, we can't control what others do on the internet [I mentioned they could just block the Sofort servers]. This is fine." Checking back what the official statement was, in summary it came down to that (use of) Sofort doesn't comply with the TOS but they're currently allowing me to use it until they came to a more permanent agreement in current talks with Sofort.
Disclaimer: I work for Shopify (But I also use it for my side hustles)
The biggest benefit is that with the Shopify checkout you can support credit cards, Paypal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Crypto and more with ONE integration.
You also get discounts codes and logic out of the box (buy one get one, X percentage off, fixed amount off, etc)
And all you have to do is listen to the order completion web hook and do whatever you want on your side.
You can use the JavaScript SDK to send your users to the checkout. https://shopify.github.io/js-buy-sdk/
Hope that helps!
