Stripe or Brainstrom? Which is better for freelancing startup?

We at forhyre.com a freelancing kind of startup(Currently in pre-alpha) and we need the suitable gateway for converting the currencies,tax etc. We are thinking of Paypal + Stripe but heard lots of good stuff about Brainstrom. So which is better for a freelancing site? The two are pretty similar. Stripe happens to be enjoying media attention as a darling disruptor while Braintree suffers a bit from association with PayPal, the Evil company that's been doing business for 20 years and has a good foothold in online payments.
