This is what I'm currently planning on doing for handling monthly (possibly annual) subscriptions.

Do you handle subscriptions and if so do you have any plans for handling moving the subscriptions from PayPal to Stripe?

If I were just to be handling one-off payments I'd not particularly care who I chose to go with (within reason). With subscriptions this gets, I believe, a bit trickier.

Nope, we just have one off payments.

If I were doing subscriptions I would still go with paypal and wait for stripe (unless I have investment and going to be big). You then just prompt your users to move over at some point. Its a little more work to maintain the paypal code for existing user who don't move but with some encouragement like a month free you may be able to get them all over.
