Paypal has a deal with Epoch I surmise because of risk consolidation -- Epoch will screen their merchants so the merchant fraud risk is minuscule. Also, I would expect that Paypal earns a premium fee on these adult transactions too?
The way the app worked seems to be the app reads the card details (no different if you were to enter the info directly). I do not think the app took a copy of the photograph, but it simply stayed on your mobile phone.
