Can you explain why this is?
Adyen is an "interchange-plus" payment processor, which means they pass on the interchange fee charged to them by the payment processing networks, plus a fixed markup. Stripe is a flat-rate payment processor: 2.9% + $0.30 on everything. Interchange fees range from 0.05% to 3.2%, more or less.

#28Here's what puzzles me. I have looked into Stripe, and just browsed the Adyen webpage. Both of those services seem to require you to maintain your own "active" server that can run server side code.

I'm curious what the integration with Ebay will look like. Will users be redirected to their Ayden accounts ala Paypal or will it be branded via Ebay?
