I have PayPal subscriptions billing, it's 2.9% + $0.30/txn - this might be slightly less than Stripe now?

Considering the Durbin Amendment capped debit card processing at 0.05% and $0.21 per transaction, and interchange pricing for credit cards ranges from 0.65% to 2.4% plus a few cents for the auth fee, it is pure profiteering that PayPal and Stripe charge this much to process cards.
