Some companies do that, but then you'd have two completely different systems to interact with your subscription system / shipping processor, handle refunds/chargebacks, automated emails, tax forms, etc. You've just gotta evaluate the cost/benefit. My company uses Shopify with several payment processors to get a single payment API.

You just build an abstraction before Paypal/CC processor/whatever else...? From my calculations it is worth it even for small companies if they operate in EU.

An abstraction layer is the primary service Shopify, Braintree, etc provide.
