PushPay integration

We are on the verge of setting up electonic giving.  Was wondering if someone could give a little more detail on the PushPay integration.  Will it be an alternative to PayPal as a merchant Gateway.  If so, we might hold off on PayPay until we can compare the two.

    My understanding is that the pushpay integration will take contributions completely out of Rock... users get sent/directed to the pushpay app and pushpay takes the contribution. Rock then imports batches from PushPay to get those contributions into Rock and associated with the givers. IF you were to only need contributions then PushPay could/would negate the need for the PayflowPro gateway, but if you need to take money for events, etc then you'll need the gateway anyway, just for that (assuming you want to use Rock events). Pushpay has indicated that they can (or will) do some sort of event registration, but these (I think) would necessarily be competely outside of Rock just like contributions and then somehow associated back to Rock groups... can't get my mind around how that would effectively work.
