Request failed with http status code 503

Hello, I am setting up a feature for my company's banking app that allows users to add their payment/debit card they have with us to the Apple Wallet on their device. We have the in-app provisioning entitlement setup and configured in the app and configured with our banking partner/TSP. We are able to manually provision production environment cards via the Wallet app. I am using test card data from my TSP. I send them the two certificates, nonce, and nonce signature data and am given activationData, encryptedPassData, and an ephmeralPublicKey that we then set on an instance of PKAddPaymentPassRequest. We call the handler on the delegate method that is called with that request object and get an error: The operation couldn’t be completed. (PKPassKitErrorDomain error 2.) Looking at the PassKit library shows this is PKUnsupportedVersionError - Unsupported pass version. Our TSP hasn't been super helpful in troubleshooting this issue and just said we should contact Apple as it is an Apple error. I am tryin

Hi there, is there a way, or a list of test cards, to simulate error on payment in an Apple Pay sandbox environment ? I tried different cards mentioned here but every try was successful : https://developer.apple.com/apple-pay/sandbox-testing/

Hi! I am working on automating the Apple Pay integration process in our CI/CD pipeline and would like to confirm whether a fully automated setup is currently possible for our preproduction environment. Right now, our process is as follows: A certificate is generated for the root domain and for each individual merchant subdomain. Both certificates are manually uploaded to our preproduction servers to test and verified via HTTP. We’d like to automate this flow in GitLab CI, mainly the generation of the necessary certificates programmatically or via API. However, from my research, it seems that Apple does not currently provide an API or any support to automate this task, but I’d like to confirm this directly with you. Is there any official support or workaround for this kind of automation? If not, do you have any plans to provide it in the future? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, We're experiencing an issue with verifying our domain for Apple Pay on the web. It's currently stuck in the Pending state despite meeting the listed requirements. The domain in question has been verified once successfully but one month later when we renewed the SSL, we were unable to verify the domain again. Please note that the new certificate's CA chain has been changed. A) The apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt file is publicly accessible at the following location: /.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt B) We've also ensured that the following IP ranges are whitelisted: 17.32.139.128/27 17.32.139.160/27 17.140.126.0/27 17.140.126.32/27 17.179.144.128/27 17.179.144.160/27 17.179.144.192/27 17.179.144.224/27 17.253.0.0/16 17.23.4.96/27 17.132.108.64/26 17.23.24.32/27 17.23.19.0/27 17.157.40.128/27 17.157.44.128/27 17.157.32.0/27 C) Our servers support TLS 1.2 already.

Hello, Please help. We have been experiencing what appears to be a TLS handshake error in our Apple Pay merchant validation requests (2-way TLS) since June 25, 2025. We are aware of the encryption algorithm changes made in February 2025, and our system was functioning correctly at that time. However, the error started occurring suddenly and only recently. Could you please clarify the following points? Have there been any changes to the TLS configuration (cipher suites, certificates, protocol versions, etc.) on the Apple Pay server side since June 2025? Have there been any updates to the specifications or recommended settings for merchant validation requests? Is there any way to contact Apple for technical support regarding this issue other than through the Developer Forums? Our Merchant Identity Certificate has already been renewed and is confirmed to be valid.
