The merchant is not allowed to store the CVV in its database. Need it every time.

No, it's quite possible to do a card transaction without the CVV, it's just considered higher risk. However, once a customer has shown they're real and it's shipping to the same address the risk is much lower, the chance that the card is stolen is minuscule.
