Adyen is much more bare metal. Think more like a modern Authorize.net.

Even eBay stopped using Paypal, and switched to Adyen consider how extreme things have to be if the company from which you were spun off... even they stop working with you

a quick check of https: www.adyen.com pricing full-list?navItem=northamerica says that visa cards only pay $0.12 + interchange (1 or 2%).

The Adyen guys are smart, their technical platform is simple and robust, and unlike the Stripe/Square/Braintree guys, Adyen actually does the processing so they can offer better rates and are suitable for huge volume.

I know that both Adyen and Braintree will capture into local currency, so you can avoid Fx fees by the payment processor themselves.

go for something like Adyen or Chase which seem to still require some level of scale but not a million dollars a day or anything.

Adyen is good but can be strict with what businesses they support.

Adyen is cleaner as a business but it's basically a payments rail.

Adyen competes primarily on price with no feature differentiation, and doesn't have the same ease-of-use. We go to Adyen when we want to take a competing offer to Stripe for them to match.

If all you need is to process credit card Adyen is probably going to outbid Stripe. They almost always did last time I checked.
