PayPal is the quickest solution, not the best one ! Moreover most advanced features to integrate payment directly on your web site are available un US/AU/CA/UK only. We recently had the same problem, mainly for recurrent billing, and the overall scenario is quite depressing in Europe. The process of being accepted and setting up a payment gateway and merchant account is very long and require tons of documentation. We checked recurly, chargify and cheddargetter. All of them have some EU partners but they rates are often very high and responses are slow. After two weeks of investigation right now I would suggest you cheddargetter (https://cheddargetter.com/ https://cheddargetter.com/). You'll still have to go through lot's of papers and bureucracy but at least their support (both from them and from their EU partners) is very quick. We set up an account, opened a ticket to be helped setting up merchant account and within 3 hours we've been helped and immidiately contacted by their european partner to set up our merchant account. However, if you're not looking for recurrent billing, there could be more convenient local solution in your country provided directly by banks. Another respected solution in Europe is Ogone. We used them for a couple of our clients and they're at least decent :)
