Have you actually ever integrated with a payment processor before? I have. I agree that this is magical.

I use Stripe on my site https://gauthify.com (first I used a while back, sticky to change)

I use Braintree at my current job.

I used to work for Balanced.

I know payment processors. Its just times have changed and this kind of thing is now quite standard. But 'magical' is of opinion, I was just inquiring what he found magical.

late to the party, but "magic" is the explanation for a dramatic difference between the expected difficulty and the actual difficulty. For example reading my mind to determine my choice of card should involve neurosurgery, EEG and MRI scans and training corpuses - however a 15 year old with a deck of cards can do it - which clearly is magic.
