I'm not sure Business::OnlineRedirectPayment is great either.

Business::RedirectPayment ?
Business::BrowserPayment ?


It would be nice to implement another popular gateway as a sanity check 
on the common API?  We implemented PayPal already, but the other two 
existing ones are rather niche/specialized.  Amazon payments?  Google 
wallet?  What else?

It would also be worth discussing how the whole Verified by Visa / 
3DSecure thing fits in.  So far we've only considered the "purely 
hosted"-type systems.  As I understand it, Verified by Visa / 3DSecure 
optionally adds a browser redirect (iframe?) type step to a transaction 
that starts as a regular B:OP merchant account-type transaction.  This 
seems somewhat different than the hosted/redirect type systems.

But all that said, if it would be useful to you to have this on CPAN 
sooner rather than later, I wouldn't want to hold things up.
