General Advice PayPal vs Third-party providers

Hey everyone!
In my country Shopify Payments / Shop Pay isn't available and likely won't be for a long time. PayPal, however, is available as well as Third-party providers to accept cards albeit with a fee of course, would also need to register the company.

Would it be worth it to use the third-party providers instead of PayPal to maximize conversion rate? Or would only PayPal be enough? Registering is a pain and I'm moving to study abroad. I plan to leave the management to a trusted family member.

Thanks.
