The idea that integrating the store into the game somehow makes it better and fixes the problem is foolish. There will always be a need for a more secure site to handle transactions. EQ 1 and 2 have an in-game store with alt currency and you still have to go outside the game to add funds to your account. There is ZERO gifting on this service.
