Yeah I went through this too, figuring out all the CC purchase redirects. Some are just idiotic to the point I wish govts would pass a law mandating zero redirects for online purchases. Stripe, Paypal, Square, Braintree and a few others do payments just fine without the redirects so it's clearly possible.
But eventually even that gets solved and the redirects get whitelisted. Haven't encountered this problem for a long time.
