If your developer team has been approved to implement Tap to Pay on iPhone, you were granted a managed entitlement configured only for the Development distribution type. When compiling your project for any other distribution type, such as App Store, Ad hoc, or In-house (for Enterprise apps), the build with fail with errors. You can resolve these errors by contacting the initial provisioning team and asking for production distribution review/validation. For more information on requesting the Tap to Pay on iPhone entitlement, see the documentation below: Setting up Tap to Pay on iPhone https://developer.apple.com/documentation/proximityreader/setting-up-the-entitlement-for-tap-to-pay-on-iphone To request for permission for the App Store, Ad hoc, or In-house distribution types, please respond to the confirmation email received after your initial entitlement request. The provisioning team will provide the next steps to begin the public distribution review process and eventually approve your app for distribution via TestFlight, the App Store, or to Enterprise managed devices. Note: The only team that manages this entitlement is the same provisioning team that granted you access, so you'll need to follow-up with the same team that approved your initial request to resolve this compilation and archival issue. Once you're approved for App Store distribution, the same steps used to distribute your app via TestFlight or In-house will be successful. If you continue to have errors after confirming you've been granted the expected distribution type for your app configuration, please see the post below, then create a new post for your issue and mention your Feedback ID after following the steps: Gathering Required Information for Troubleshooting Tap to Pay on iPhone https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/775784 Cheers, Paris X Pinkney |  WWDR | DTS Engineer

Hi everyone, we’ve been waiting since May 30 for our Tap to Pay on iPhone entitlement to be enabled for distribution, but it’s still only active for development (Case‑ID: 14485444). We submitted: A new video recorded from an external device showing the full checkout flow Updated merchant education using the ProximityReaderDiscovery.Topic.payment(.howToTap) API, as suggested by Apple The team initially said the education was compliant, then said it wasn’t. We fixed everything, sent the updated materials, and haven’t heard back in days. We can’t even upload the app to TestFlight because of this error: Profile doesn't include the com.apple.developer.proximity-reader.payment.acceptance entitlement It’s now been almost a month and a half, and this delay is becoming critical. It’s blocking both internal testing and our production release. We’d really appreciate clarity on: Do we need to submit another request via the form? Or is it enough to reply to the existing email thread? Also, are there any direct contacts or escalation paths we can use? Any help or guidance appreciated

Hello, I went through the verification process to get the Tap to Pay on iPhone entitlement, and after a couple of corrections I was finally assured that I was granted the entitlement for production use. However, in App Store Connect, I can only see "Development" for "Provisioning Support" of the entitlement, and I'm not able to publish the app to Testflight because the profile doesn't support the entitlement (I'm using automatic code signing with XCode). Where is this going wrong? The Tap to Pay support assured me they granted the right entitlement and pointed me to the developer support. Thank you, Johannes

Hi!!! I can't publish the app as I have a paid membership through Stripe. I have a wordpress site and have a paid membership to access the content... The app is geared by a third party service and I can't put any code into it... What can I do? There is an idea that in the application to display a link to the site where to place the payment for membership... Please advise, I'm not the first to face this....

Hi, for Tap to Pay distribution, apple asked to submit an app review check list, in which there are merchant education questions. What does it mean by these questions, is apple asking us to show tutorials or help articles on the app or via company's help support website? Pls help as im not sure how to move forward.

Hi, We applied for Tap to Pay on iPhone entitlement and were approved, but on distribution support it's only showing Development. We can build and debug Tap to Pay on development, but unable to build release. We opened ticket with Apple support but they were saying it was configured correctly. I attached screenshot of our developer account entitlement for Tap to Pay. It clearly said Development only.

Hi guys, I'm trying to upload my app with Tap to Pay on iPhone functionality. However, I'm getting error message "Profile doesn't include com.apple.developer.proximity-reader.payment.acceptance entitlement." I've confirmed many times that I have the distribution profile with this capability. Any idea what might be the issue? The development environment works perfectly.

Hi, I'm trying to integrate with Tap to Pay feature under Stripe. For this reason i need to add com.apple.developer.proximity-reader.payment.acceptance entitlement to my Identifier. I can see it under Provisioning Profile -> Enabled Capabilities. But after downloading this profile in Xcode I don't see this entitlement. What could be the reason for this discrapency?
