Request: Increase Merchant ID Creation Limit for Apple Pay Integrations

**Hi Apple Developer Community,

I’m currently integrating Apple Pay across multiple merchants for my e-commerce solution, and I’ve run into a significant challenge. Apple enforces a limit of 100 Merchant IDs per Developer Account, which is creating a bottleneck for my project.

My Questions:

1- Is there a way to increase the limit of Merchant IDs on a Developer Account?

2- Has anyone faced a similar challenge and found a workaround to handle integrations with more than 100 merchants?

3- Are there any plans from Apple to lift or adjust this restriction for businesses working with high volumes of merchants?

I’d appreciate any guidance, advice, or information from those who’ve encountered and resolved this issue.

Thank you for your help!

It sounds like the Apple Pay Web Merchant Registration API may be a good fit for you. Take a look at the documentation and follow the steps listed to request access.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply! I now have API access and created the Payment Platform Integrator ID, but I’m facing an issue with this request:

Endpoint:

https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/registerMerchant

{

"domainNames": [],

"encryptTo": "platformintegrator.com.zaytech.sandbox",

"merchantUrl": "",

"partnerInternalMerchantIdentifier": "testUuid",

"partnerMerchantName": "TestMerchant"

}

It returns 200 OK with an empty response. Where can I find the merchant ID, or am I missing something?

Thanks!
