If you use them for subscriptions you are effectively locked with them. The cost of migrating to a different provider (including existing subscriptions AND payment methods) plus the risk of something breaking the renewals is too high for most companies.

Maintain two billing providers and migrate new subscriptions as they onboard. Then slowly migrate existing subscriptions.

It's also a good bargaining chip.
