If only PayPal had joined Braintree's "Credit Card Data Portability" initiative [1]. I'm betting that's dead now with them joining PayPal, if it's even still active. If it is, get your data out quick before PayPal can lock it in!

I'm an engineer with Braintree. This deal will not affect our participation in the Credit Card Portability Standard.
Or you could use Braintree with Spreedly to keep your options open: http://blog.spreedly.com/2013/09/26/braintree-payments-a-por...
I'm somewhat annoyed that they do not publish the list of providers who have joined this initiative [1].
