Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer. This is just my understanding.
As far as PCI goes, you don't want to have credit card numbers ever
touch your server. Even if you don't store them, just having the
credit card numbers pass through your server puts your server under
PCI scope. At that point you have to get a PCI auditor to check out
your setup (or you can self-certify if you are small enough, I think).
As far as I can tell, the best way around that is to have the payment
form data posted directly to whatever the payment gateway/ERP system
is. If the credit card numbers never touch your server you are ok.
(The paypal module (and maybe others) does this already.)

Braintree has some PCI compliance resources. They also sell PCI
compliance services, so they do have a vested interest.

Good luck!
