I think Stripe won a lot not because of prices, but by removing the need for PCI compliance and a (very good) API!

Exactly. Their pricing is actually not that great... they competed on building the best devX and making it 10x faster and easier for a startup to accept card payments than the alternatives at the time. I think they are relatively struggling a bit more now because others (Adyen... ) have built similar experiences.
