Simple Checkout Donations and ARB

Is there still no Simple Checkout Donation for ARB? Or at the very least an authorize.net hosted ARB form?

I'm seeing posts from 3+ years ago asking why this isn't already a feature. Am I missing something or is authorize.net really that far behind the times?

You could theoretically set up a separate item for the recurring, so you know who's signing up for it, then initialize it manually from the transaction through your control panel. But no, I don't think there's any recurring billing option with Simple Checkout items.

And 10 years later, still missing this somewhat useful feature.

Has everyone else moved on?

Authorize.net, do you know how many clients you might be losing due to this weird and missing feature? Other FORM providers (jotform for instance) can create a subscription checkout process that ties into your ARB side. But your own SIMPLE CHECKOUT page lacks this. Even in 2022. I've heard quite a few people are moving to stripe.
