Default Re: Install Xpayments on development site?

So finally got consulted on this:
1) A separate shared hosting account can be used for X-Payments if the hosting is 100% PCI-DSS certified. But it is not the best decision as meeting PCI compliance on a shared hosting is much harder and at the same time much easier to break.
2) VPS/dedicated server is the recommended option for hosting X-Payments as it is **much** easier to meet and maintain compliance with PCI-DSS requirements than on a shared hosting.

Perhaps someone from hosting companies can step in here and comment.
