Is it possible to charge payment without creating payment profile in CIM ?

Hi,

Currently I have integrated CIM (with c#) API and it is working at our live website.

Now, for some of our customers I need to charge payment directly from credit card only once and need not to charge their credit card in future using PaymentProfileID.

Is there any method in CIM API so that I can directly charge payment without creating CustomerProfile & CustomerPaymentProfile ?

If above is not possible, then please anybody let me know what merchant configuration / approval would be required if i use AIM in same merchant account.

Thanks,

Pawan

All Authorize.net accounts support AIM, as far as I know, so there's no reason why you can't use it as necessary.

Thanks a lot for quick reply..

So according to you I should not think of using CIM for charging direct payment ?

There's no need for CIM unless you're doing subscriptions.
