Yes, we are planning this feature in X-Payments v1.1
I can't tell you about when it is going to be released because we should take in account validation of X-Payments by our PA-QSA and the PCI council and that can take some time.

Thanks for this, Alex. However - I don't believe you absolutely need to consider Authorize.net CIM as a solution within X-Payments only. Authorize.net CIM now offers a hosted solution or a lightbox or iframe for that first collection of the credit card information. (Previously - CIM was a problem because they did not have a hosted solution in their API for the credit card entry so it would need to be in X-Payments.) You can now actually implement Authorize.net CIM in X-CART or X-CART Next without using X-Payments. Now, you can actually add vault capabilities or a subscription/recurring module without requiring X-Payments.

From what Mike indicated - BCSE is using the iFrame part of the CIM API. It seems better to build this outside of X-Payments now that CIM API allows it. Perhaps you could coordinate with BCSE to build a module for X-Cart 4.x, and you could add Authorize.net CIM hosted to your XCART Next roadmap? Since it is hosted - you could even add it to Ecwid and have a subscription module there too.
