We have a simple application where users can post ADs and others can bid/respond to the ADS. The users can purchase premium plans to post more ADs per month or bid on more ADs. We are using STRIPE to handle payments & subscriptions. Upon trying to publish to the App Store, we are getting the following error. Guideline 3.1.1 - In-App Purchase We noticed that your app contains a payment mechanism other than in-app purchase for digital content or to unlock features or functionality within your app, which is not appropriate for the App Store. In-app purchase is the only valid in-app payment mechanism for digital content. Please suggest me the possible ways to solve it and publish on APP STORE. thanks!

I am developing issuer non-UI extension. In function status i have to return remotePassEntriesAvailable (boolean) and to do that i have to activate WCSession from that Extension to get the remoteSecureElementPasses which are already added to the remote wallet (watch). I have implemented WCSessionDelegate inside the non-UI extension but i can not enable the WCSession. I always get: Error: WCSession has not been activated I saw a comment in this post -> WCSession is not available from iOS extensions, only from the main iOS app. To the point... If the WCSession is not available from iOS extensions how can I properly set remoteSecureElementPasses and implement function remotePassEntries if i can't connect to the watch to see which cards are already enrolled?

Dear friends, are the any legal restrictions for e-cigarette brands/companies to use Apple Wallet loyalty cards (ie. for online club memberships)?

Hello everyone, I developed an application to create passes. I add a webservice URL to manage updates, password deletions, ... When I add a pkpass in ios(17.2) simulator, the POST endpoint of my webserviceURL is never reached on my local server, but the GET and DELETE endpoints are reached. Does anyone encounter this kind of problem and how can I get the POST endpoint working in the simulator? Thanks in advance to anyone who helps me =)

Hello, I have a problem with domain verification in the merchantID section. It returns "Requested domain name has been verified previously." Previously my domain was registering and verifying normally. I'm sure another MerchantID doesn't have this domain registered. Please any advice or idea.

Hi i apply apple pay in my flutter app but not able to saw the payments report. How we'll link our apple pay to the backend?

We are developing an Apple wallet pass. I would like to register it in my iPhone wallet. I don't want it to be registered in the watch wallet. Is it possible for the pass issuer to intentionally prevent the pass from being registered on the watch?

On using AMEX card with apple pay transaction is declining for IN APP EMV CONTACTLESS CRYPTO FAILURE. The APP generating the CRYPTOGRAM would have to check their cryptogram generation settings. The auth message is formatted wrong. How to resolve this issue ?

Hello, we're using Shopware 6.5.7.3 and would like to offer our customers Apple Pay. The Domain verification has succeeded once already. Because of our Payment Provider the Identfifiers and certificates have to be grenerated a certain way, which we did not know at the time. Alas the domain has to be verified again. The problem is that the verification will not succeed anymore. A new Merchant ID, Merchant ID Certificate & Payment Processing Certificate have been generated. Previously there had been error messages (paraphrased) like "Domain verification failed. The file can't be reached", which have been fixed. This time the only error message is "Domain verification failed". No extra explanation, just these 3 words. The file "apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt" can be reached inside the dir public/.well-know directory and the nginx acces.log documents a foreign Apple device accessing the file when the verification process is started in the Apple Dev backend: "172.20.0.2 - - [29/Jan/2024:14:35:08 +0000] "GET /.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt HTTP/1.1" 200 5744 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_6) AppleWebKit/601.7.7 (KHTML%2C like Gecko) Version/9.1.2 Safari/601.7.7" "17.179.144.226" 0.000 - . -" Does anyone know what the exact error message "Domain verification failed." means? Which files are neccessary to verify the domain? Do files like merchant_id.cer/.pem/.key in %root%/config/apple-pay-cert play a role in this specific process? Thank you very much for any insight

I am trying to understand how to use the token notification API to deactivate a token when the user unsubscribes. The main issue I see is that I do not receive the merchantTokenIdentifier in my payload when initiating a new recurring transaction. I have not found any working examples showing end-to-end to integration here. The docs are a little confusing as well, I found this: merchantTokenIdentifier string For a merchant token request, the provisioned merchant token identifier from the payment network But I did not find anything about a "merchant token request"

HI, ApplePay was working fine. Since we did a dot net upgrade to 6.026 on the server it has stopped working I think it is to do with the above issue. In the code we set the protocol which matches what's on the server: ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol = SecurityProtocolType.Tls12; Has anyone experienced this before?

Today I was going to subscribe to the Apple Developer Program since I have an app that I want to distribute to App Store. Everything went fine in the enrollment process, until I had to pay. For Christmas, I had received a physical Apple Gift Card of 1000 SEK (≈100 USD) and therefore had this on my Apple-ID's gift card balance. I had already spent 49 SEK of the gift card balance on an app subscription. However, when I tried to enroll in the Apple Developer Program, Apple took the remaining 951 SEK from the gift card balance (it's gone from my account now on my iPhone and Mac), and also took 44 SEK from my bank account to add up to the total of 995 SEK per year the membership costs here in Sweden. What should I do? I want my gift card balance back, my 44 SEK to my bank account and a working way to pay since this is obviously a bug caused by someone at Apple not thinking about how the Apple Developer app should behave if there's a gift card balance on the Apple-ID account. I have not gotten an email regarding the transaction, and I can't seem to continue the enrollment from my Mac. On the Report a problem Apple website, the purchase is not visible. What can I do? Payment failed error message. Money taken from my bank account. On my iPad I can still see the gift card balance, but on my iPhone and Mac the gift card balance is gone from the App Store app.

Bom dia, tudo certo com vocês? Trabalho como freelancer e em uma das propostas que recebi existe a necessidade de pagamentos via cartão de crédito/pix através do aplicativo para uma prestação de serviços externa (física, presencial) No caso não consegui compreender como funciona a parte de taxação sobre compras dentro de um aplicativo na App Store. O aplicativo não teria custos, mensalidades, nada disso. E o pagamento realizado dentro do aplicativo não desbloquearia nenhuma nova funcionalidade e sim uma prestação de serviços externa (física, presencial) Seria simplesmente um intermediador entre um prestador de serviço e um cliente Nesse caso existe alguma taxa sobre os pagamentos?

As the document mentioned "Host your domain-verification file at the following path for each domain you’re registering: https://[DOMAIN_NAME]/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association" and that file contain "pspId" and "signature" so just want to know these are not sensitive it gets in the hands of an attacker ??

I received an email. There was a request to renew the domain registered with the Apple Pay Merchant ID as it was expiring. I went into my Merchant ID to renew, but couldn't find a way. How do I renew?

Dear all, we have noticed that there is an OTP counter during the In App-Provisioning Workflow which leads to a temporary block for this particular card. Unfortunately we don't know how the counter work. Does anybody know anything about this topic? Thanks a lot.
