Hi,
I'm really looking for some advice on which API method to use, each of them seems to partially fit what I would like but nothing is ideal, I don't know if I'm missing something.

What I would like is a way to capture customer card details and have them stored on authorize.net to take payment(s) at a later date - but without having to handle cc information on my own server. At first it seemed like CIM fit the bill but the forms to collect the information don't really seem to be customisable in the same way as the others and in their current state they don't really fit.

Is CIM the only way to store card details for use later?

The DPM looks good but as far as I can see it just takes a single authorization,capture etc. and the person would have to insert their card details each time they want to make a payment. I don't think there is any way to make another charge. Is this right?

Thanks in advance for your help.
