Hi guys,
We are trying to implement a solution that would allow users to subscribe to other users in our app. The system should work the same way as Twitch's subscription model works. Users should be able to subscribe to anyone and each subscription should have different tiers.
From what we were able to gather, users cannot have multiples of the same subscription on applestoreconnect. Meaning that we would probably need to make a custom subscription per every user? Here we have also learned that there is a limit of 10 000 types of subscriptions and that it is not possible to dynamically create/delete them for users. (correct me if I am wrong)
Is there a solution for handling this type of a scenario?
Appreciate all answers.

We are encountering an issue where Apple Pay shows an unexpected popup with a message and an "OK" button when confirming a payment (after double-tapping the power button). This issue began appearing last week without any changes to the codebase or configurations.
Steps to Reproduce:
Open the app and initiate an Apple Pay payment.
Add a valid card if not already present.
Confirm the payment using the side button (double-tap).
Instead of completing the transaction, a popup appears with a generic message and an "OK" button.
Expected Behavior:
Apple Pay should process the payment and provide a confirmation or error based on the transaction status.
Actual Behavior:
A popup appears with a generic title and an “OK” button. The transaction is not processed.
Environment Details:
Platform: iOS
Apple Pay integration has been functioning correctly for years
No recent updates to Apple Pay-related code or configuration
Configurations Checked:
App Identifier is correctly set with the bundle ID
Apple Pay Payment Processing is enabled in the App ID configuration
Correct Merchant ID is selected and matches in Xcode capabilities
*.entitlements file contains correct Apple Pay entitlement
Payment Processing Certificates are valid and in place
Additional Notes:
The issue appeared suddenly without any modifications to the app. We suspect it may be due to external changes (e.g., Apple system update or merchant validation issue).
Please advise on any further steps we can take to diagnose or resolve this issue.

Hello everyone,
I’m currently in the process of implementing Apple Pay on my company’s e-commerce website under a subscription model with recurring payments. I would appreciate some help in clarifying the following points:
Is the applicationPrimaryAccountNumber the DPAN and the merchantTokenIdentifier the MPAN? If not, which fields represent each one or how do I recognise them?
Is the onlinePaymentCryptogram used only for processing payments with the DPAN, or is it also involved when using the MPAN?
Is the onlinePaymentCryptogram single-use or does it have an expiration time? Or is it reusable with no limits?
According to Apple’s data policies, is it recommended for our servers to perform the payment token decryption (debundling), or should this only be handled by the payment gateway processor to stay compliant?
Below is the payment request I’m using for testing, along with the decrypted payment token returned for a test card:
Payment Request:
{
"countryCode": "US",
"currencyCode": "USD",
"merchantCapabilities": ["supports3DS", "supportsDebit", "supportsCredit"],
"supportedNetworks": ["visa", "masterCard", "amex", "discover"],
"requiredBillingContactFields": ["postalAddress", "name"],
"lineItems": [
{
"label": "Subtotal",
"amount": "9"
},
{
"label": "Taxes",
"amount": "1"
}
],
"total": {
"label": "Demo (Card is not charged)",
"amount": "10",
"type": "final",
"recurringPaymentIntervalUnit": "month"
},
"recurringPaymentRequest": {
"paymentDescription": "Recurring payment",
"regularBilling": {

"amount": "10",
"type": "final",
"paymentTiming": "recurring",
"recurringPaymentIntervalUnit": "month"
},
"managementURL": "${window.location.origin}/api/managePaymentMethod"
}
}
Decrypted Payment Token:
{
"applicationPrimaryAccountNumber": "5204240494898922",
"applicationExpirationDate": "280630",
"currencyCode": "840",
"transactionAmount": 0,

"merchantTokenMetadata": {
"cardMetadata": {
"longDescription": "Test Bank for MasterCard MTF",
"cardCountry": "US",

"fpanSuffix": "0049"
},

}
}
Thanks in advance for your help and guidance.
Apple Sandbox is not available in India, also Apple Pay itself is not supported by Indian Banks. How can I still test using Apple Pay sandbox in India? I am trying to add test cards on my iPhone and it fails to add it. It tries to connect to Issuer, which it should not for sandbox Apple Id.
Can anyone help how to achieve this?
I'm encountering an issue with Apple Pay on both Wallet and the Watch app where the app name is not showing up on the back of the payment card(Card details).
The pass was successfully provisioned, and everything seems to be working, but the expected app name or brand isn't displayed, and instead, I see the generic "Something went wrong. Try again Later" message.
Do we need to configure something to get this displayed in Wallet app?
I've completed the setup required for in-app push provisioning on the iOS platform.
Encountering an issue at the completion handler step while sending data back to the PassKit framework.
The delegate method used is:
func addPaymentPassViewController(completionHandler handler: @escaping (PKAddPaymentPassRequest) -> Void)
The error observed is:
Error Domain=PKPassKitErrorDomainCode=2 which is PKUnsupportedVersionError
The device used for testing is running iOS version 17.4.1.

Hi team,
I'm currently trying to add a specific subdomain (with a path) to Apple's Sandbox domain list, but it seems Apple only allows the main domain to be entered.
Due to strict client security policies, we aren't allowed to use just the main domain, which is creating a roadblock in our implementation.
Is there any way to add a full subdomain or URL path to the Sandbox configuration? I'm happy to join a call to explain the scenario further if that would help.
Thanks in advance for your support!
Team,
We are currently checking out on Apple Pay using ALL and MRU as currencies. We have authorized the payment via Touch ID; however, we are not receiving the onPaymentAuthorized event.
Could you please confirm if Apple Pay supports ALL and MRU currencies? We have confirmed that it works with other currencies.
Thank you!

Apple Pay processed a transaction but the account has insufficient funds. Later the transaction is declined. Is it expected from Apple Pay? Does Apple Pay throws an error if the account has insufficent funds- iOS Swift ?
Does anyone know the code to handle this scenario in Swift iOS?
I am currently working on decrypting Apple Pay tokens with Laravel PHP, and I have encountered a few uncertainties regarding the decryption process and the usage of AES-GCM.
Could you please clarify the following points:
Algorithm Confirmation:
Am I using the correct algorithm for decrypting the data key? Specifically, I am utilizing AES-256-GCM with the algorithm ID "id-aes256-GCM" (2.16.840.1.101.3.4.1.46), as specified in the documentation.
Is this the recommended algorithm for decrypting the Apple Pay token's data key?
Authentication Tag:
In the decryption process, it seems that an authentication tag is required, but I am not sure where to obtain it from. Could you confirm how the authentication tag is generated or provided during the encryption process?
If the tag is part of the token or is transmitted separately, could you clarify where I can retrieve it in order to proceed with the decryption successfully?
IV and Other Parameters:
I am using an initialization vector (IV) of 16 null bytes (00000000000000000000000000000000) as specified in the documentation. Could you confirm that this is correct and aligns with the expected parameters for the AES-GCM decryption?
Are there any other specific parameters or considerations I should be aware of when implementing the decryption of Apple Pay tokens?
GCM vs Other Encryption Modes:
Can you confirm that AES-GCM is the preferred and required encryption mode, or is there any flexibility to use other modes (e.g., AES-CBC) without compromising security?
Your guidance would be greatly appreciated to ensure I am following the correct decryption procedure for Apple Pay tokens.
Thank you in advance for your support.

On Applepay's docs it talks about the ability to do "flexible" payments and scheduling for future purchases. We need to be able to make only a single approval of an Apple payment for multiple submissions later on. Think, deferred payments at an arbitrary schedule without presenting the ApplePay dialog each and every time.
The docs suggest that may be possible, but are maddeningly vague on how to do that. Is it possible or not? Can we store an approved merchant's token for example and leverage that for future transactions?

I'm currently integrating Apple Pay with my payment provider, and I'm encountering a signature validation error during the payment flow.
Here's the setup:
I’ve verified that my Merchant Certificate is valid, and I'm able to initialize the Apple Pay session without any issues. Also this curl works fine
The Payment Processing Certificate was created by my PSP.
PSP claims that the payment token signature is invalid during the transaction phase, which prevents payment completion.
The parsed signature starts like this
0:d=0 hl=2 l=inf cons: SEQUENCE
2:d=1 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :pkcs7-signedData
13:d=1 hl=2 l=inf cons: cont [ 0 ]
15:d=2 hl=2 l=inf cons: SEQUENCE
17:d=3 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :01
20:d=3 hl=2 l= 13 cons: SET
22:d=4 hl=2 l= 11 cons: SEQUENCE
24:d=5 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :sha256
35:d=3 hl=2 l=inf cons: SEQUENCE
37:d=4 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :pkcs7-data

60:d=6 hl=2 l= 3 cons: cont [ 0 ]
62:d=7 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :02
65:d=6 hl=2 l= 8 prim: INTEGER :16634C8B0E305717
75:d=6 hl=2 l= 10 cons: SEQUENCE
77:d=7 hl=2 l= 8 prim: OBJECT :ecdsa-with-SHA256
87:d=6 hl=2 l= 122 cons: SEQUENCE
89:d=7 hl=2 l= 46 cons: SET
91:d=8 hl=2 l= 44 cons: SEQUENCE
93:d=9 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :commonName
98:d=9 hl=2 l= 37 prim: UTF8STRING :Apple Application Integration CA - G3
I'm looking for guidance on what could be causing this signature failure.
Does anyone know what else I can check regarding the merchant or payment processing certificates, private keys, or key usage that might cause Apple Pay signature validation to fail, even if the session initializes successfully? Domains are also verified.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
What am I missing in my checking for whether or not to offer Apple Pay on my website?
<script async crossorigin
src="https://applepay.cdn-apple.com/jsapi/v1.1.0/apple-pay-sdk.js"
></script>
...
<style>
apple-pay-button {
display: none;
}
</style>
...
<apple-pay-button buttonstyle="black" type="plain" locale="en-US" onclick="startApplePay('${APPLE_PAY_MERCHANT_ID}','${paymentForm.amount}');"></apple-pay-button>
So, the button is not displayed by default. I only change the style to displayed if:
window.onload = function() {
if (isApplePaySupported()) {
document.querySelector("apple-pay-button").style.display = "inline-block";
};
}
function isApplePaySupported() {
return (window.PaymentRequest &&
window.ApplePaySession &&
ApplePaySession.canMakePayments() &&
ApplePaySession.supportsVersion(applePayVersion));
}
Yet, once in a while a click comes through that tries to create a PaymentRequest with
const applePayMethod = {
"supportedMethods": "https://apple.com/apple-pay",
"data": {
"version": applePayVersion,
"merchantIdentifier": merchantIdentifier,
"merchantCapabilities": [
"supports3DS"
],
"supportedNetworks": [
"amex",
"discover",
"masterCard",
"visa"
],
"countryCode": "US"
}
};
and results in:
NotSupportedError, The payment method is not supported
What else might be "not supported" in the request for this particular user/device/wallet? In particular, that could be known immediately when the PaymentRequest is created, but before any payment instrument from the wallet is selected?
And, is there anything I could detect before showing the button?
Or, is it even possible for the button to be clicked by some kind of automation, even if it's not displayed?
Hi,
We are trying to make payment from ecomm merchant.
The last request during process is
{
"sessionData": {
"epochTimestamp": "1741082241",
"expiresAt": "1741092241",
"merchantSessionIdentifier": "SSH88312C485D_7E0DD10173",
"nonce": "3f6dc197",
"merchantIdentifier": "5F9BC6BAF8",
"domainName": "libertybank.ge",
"displayName": "Apple Pay Purchase",
"signature": "3080060000",
"operationalAnalyticsIdentifier": "Apple Pay Purchase:5F9BC6BAF8",
"retries": 0,
"pspId": "5F9BC6BAF8"
}
}
which is successfully validated
applePaySession.completeMerchantValidation(data.sessionData)
After this, the "oncancel" handler is triggered in applePay.
Please help us to understand what is wrong.
Please note the domain where the applepay button is located is at
txpg.libertypay.ge Which is successfully verified.
Hi,
We are trying to make the PKAddPaymentPassViewController to show the correct list of devices to where the pass can be added.
We have analysed the documentation and we are using the PrimaryAccountIdentifier field which is the field that supposedly controls this behavior but the list of devices presented in the view controller always include one iPhone and one Apple Watch, regardless of where the card has been already added.
We are initializing the PKAddPaymentPassRequestConfiguration object with:
PKEncryptionScheme
PrimaryAccountIdentifier
CardholderName
PrimaryAccountSuffix
LocalizedDescription
PaymentNetwork
PrimaryAccountIdentifier
CardholderName
PrimaryAccountSuffix
LocalizedDescription
We have also verified the configuration in our payment pass processor and everything should be ok.
We would like to have some help on achieving the desired flow for Apple Pay, which is to present the PKAddPaymentPassViewController with the correct list of available devices and not the full list.
Thank you.
Hello Apple Devs,
We’re currently trying to integrate Apple Pay on the web using Apple Pay JS. We've followed the official documentation closely, but we're running into a blocker during the merchantSession validation phase.
We successfully retrieved a merchantSession, which looks like this:
json
{
"displayName": "Our Name",
"domainName": "https://pay.ourdomain.co",
"epochTimestamp": ,
"expiresAt": ****************,
"merchantIdentifier": "",
"merchantSessionIdentifier": ",
"nonce": "",
"operationalAnalyticsIdentifier": our name "t:",
"pspId": "",
"retries": 0,
"signature": "*****************..."
}
Issue:
Shortly after initiating the session, we receive a cancel event with the following info:
ApplePayCancelEvent {
type: "cancel",
sessionError: {
code: "unknown",
info: {}
}
}
We're unsure what causes the cancellation. There are no clear error messages or hints in the logs to identify what went wrong.
What We’ve Checked:
The merchantSession is returned successfully from our backend.
The domainName matches our frontend domain (https://pay.durdomain.co).
The session hasn’t expired when tested.
We're using Apple Pay JS APIs as described in the documentation.
Help Needed:
What can trigger an ApplePayCancelEvent with an "unknown" error code?
Any insight or guidance would be deeply appreciated. Thanks in advance!
We created apps for many credit unions in Canada. Some of those apps has the feature to directly add users' debit cards to Apple Wallet (which is called by Apple as "in-app provisioning"). The feature has been working fine for at least 6 years for many credit unions. Recently, after updating one of those existing apps, we found out that the in-app provisioning is no longer working. Found it very strange, as we didn't touch the code base related to this feature for a very long time. One thing we found out is that the option to add in-app provisioning entitlement is missing during generating "provisioning profile" for the app. Is this a misconfiguration by App? Or do we need to request for additional entitlement migration as mentioned in the page: https://developer.apple.com/help/account/reference/provisioning-with-managed-capabilities ? Apple, please help, it's rather urgent.
I am facing an issue with Apple Pay js while doing the integration
we are using reference
https://applepaydemo.apple.com/apple-pay-js-api
In this I can generate the merchantSession correctly
But when I pass that merchantSession in
session.completeMerchantValidation(merchantValidation) as per documentation
It is getting failed and also no appropriate error is being shown in the console
Hi Guys,
I am having an issue verifying a card when it is pending verification in the Apple Watch Wallet App and the iPhone Wallet.
When the user verifies the card in the wallets, they are redirected to verification in my APP. However, the problem is that I don't know which application is calling, whether it is the Apple Watch or the iPhone, because the URL sends me the same serialNumber from the PKPASS. It is impossible to know if the user wants to verify and activate the card on the watch or the iPhone.
Because I only receive the following information in the URL:
myapp://app-url?
passTypeldentifier=paymentpass.com.apple&action =verify&serialNumber=*****
The serialNumber is the same from the iPhone Wallet and the Watch Wallet.
func application(_ app: UIApplication, open url: URL, options:
[UIApplication.OpenURLOptionsKey : Any] = [:]) -> Bool
{
let source = options[.sourceApplication]
I try to retrieve the source, but it comes back null. It would be the only way to know the originating App.
Can someone help me solve this problem?
