Stripe payments option sends you to Stripe website

I wanted to change my CSC subscription option to Paypal, and couldn't see a way to move it from credit card. But I could see this:
Ok, so, I went to the Stripe website, searched around for a while, and signed up for an account like a good little Subetan who wants that 15% discount. But after some time searching their documentation and FAQ, and getting increasingly baffled, it seems like Stripe is for companies who want to take money for goods, not for customers who want to get goods for money. Finally I opened up their chat help thingy:
{irlname}: I&;m trying to make a payment on a game website. They have a "subscribe and save" option, which when I click on it sends me here to you. But it seems like your business is for companies who need people to pay them, not for people who want to pay? Am I in the right place at all, or should I go back to the game website and tell them something&;s wrong?

supportguy: Hi {irlname}. Yes, you are correct. I suggest that you contact the website owner directly regarding you payment with them.
{irlname}: Ok, thank you for helping me!
supportguy: Thanks for your time as well {irlname}. Bye!
supportguy has left.
So, what incredibly simple and obvious thing am I missing? There's gotta be a big blue button somewhere, or at least a link... I just want to get my Gold account and CSC without being hit with my bank's non-GBP transaction fee!
TLDR: How do I Stripe, and/or how do I switch to Paypal?

Hi ! I can see where this is confusing because of the link directly to stripe, but I believe that page is only for stripe payments - meaning, if you scroll down further on the page you'll actually see a table of options for plans. The buttons will either say subscribe or change plan (if you have an existing one).
Selecting one will give the stripe discounted amount indicated under each option.
Payments are processed through two different methods: Braintree - This one would connect and use your paypal account. I beleive this is only for one time purchases, not subscriptions. Link: https://subeta.net/payments.php?
Stripe - This option would require a credit card, but allows for subscriptions with discounts. Do note that if you choose an option that is for multiple months you actually get the full CSC amount all at once, rather than monthly for that period.

Hope that makes sense! Let me know if not.
