Everyone uses stripe though which is already 10000x easier than anything out there.
The fact that even Amazon has switched to Stripe shows this.
And that is not even getting into the PCI, PCI DSS, SOC, I and II, etc compliance soup of self hosting.

Basically, here are the worst of the worst of Amazon's transactions, please take this risk onto Stripe's platform, then we will cut cost with full knowledge of exactly how much we will save by spending developer resources to cut out Stripe for this particular card type in this particular country.
I would not call this a healthy relationship, but rather stripe taking the marginal additional volume that Amazon brings to their platform to net slightly more money and get slightly more data points on weird payment methods.
