Do you have a link to their API documentation on using this? Every search around this leads to their hosted checkout page which lets you pick between PayPal or a credit card or the legacy "Payments Pro" option which is no longer recommended to use and technically labeled as unable to sign up for unless you're a pre-existing user. I have a PayPal business account btw.

A ton of folks are using Stripe too, and this PayPal notification is coming out barely 6 weeks before the change in rates. If you wanted to use their new CC rates it would mean switching your entire billing system over from Stripe to PayPal for accepting credit cards.
Plus there's a ton of 3rd party services that offer SAAS apps around handling billing for you through credit card or PayPal and almost all of them use Stripe for credit cards. This makes switching to PayPal's direct CC payment not an option for many, which translates to a price increase for using PayPal.
