Hi, we are implementing the push provisioning via the Apple Wallet Extension starting from the example at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/passkit/implementing-wallet-extensions.
To correctly manage the push provisioning on Apple Watch, specifically for a card tokenised in the iPhone but not in the Watch, we need to know if there is a connected Apple Watch to the iPhone.
We are using the following code from the Apple Wallet Extension example to detect whether there is a connected watch:
WCSession* session = [WCSession defaultSession];
session.delegate = delegate;
[session activateSession];
In the main target of the app, at the end of the activation the system correctly calls the delegate method:
session:activationDidCompleteWithState:error:
but we noticed it is not being called in the UI extension context (the one having NSExtensionPointIdentifier: com.apple.PassKit.issuer-provisioning.authorization).
We don't understand why the delegate is not being called in the UI extension, can you please help?
Thanks!
Steps to Reproduce:
Start with a card not added in the Apple Wallet app
Open the Apple Wallet app
Click on add card
Select the app to launch the Wallet Extension flow
The Apple Wallet Extension with UI is on screen and invokes the activateSession method, the delegate method is not invoked and session.isPaired returns "no".

Hello,
We have implemented In-App Verification using both SMS and mobile app options. While SMS functions as expected, selecting the mobile app for verification in the Wallet app does not open our app on the first attempt. Instead, the verification window simply dismisses.
However, if I select "Complete Verification" again and choose the mobile app, deep linking works as expected, and our app opens correctly.
This issue occurs with any bank card and app I’ve tested in Wallet. Could this be a bug in the Wallet app where deep linking fails on the first attempt but works on the second?
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
Hello,
I am currently testing an Adyen integration with Sylius and need to verify Apple Pay with Cartes Bancaires in the sandbox environment. Could you please advise how Cartes Bancaires can be tested in Apple Pay Sandbox (e.g. cards details)?
Thank you in advance for your guidance.
Best regards,

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?
Hello,
We are working on integrating billing into our dating app, targeted at the Russian market. Our main requirement is to support subscriptions with automatic renewal and cancellation.
We understand that, according to App Store Review Guideline, all digital subscriptions should use Apple In-App Purchase (IAP). However, we are unsure how this applies in Russia, where some local regulations may limit the use of non-Russian payment processors, and where not all Russian bank cards are accepted by Apple.
Our question is:
-For iOS apps in Russia, is it strictly required to use Apple IAP for subscriptions?
-Are there any approved exceptions allowing integration with local processors such as Robokassa or YooKassa?
-How are other developers currently handling subscriptions for the Russian market?
We want to ensure full compliance and avoid any risk of rejection or removal.
Thank you in advance for any clarification.
Best regards,
Dan
We are on a .NET ecommerce site hosted on AWS on a windows 2012R2 server. We have apple pay for the web integrated on the site and the certificates (merchant id and apple pay) were set to expire shortly. We created a new merchant id and apple pay cert, however we are now stuck as the new merchant ID certificate doesn't appear to be working although the old one did. Note there have been no code changes. Basically the apple pay process is failing on the merchant validation.
Here are the steps we took:
Created a CSR in Keychain Access
Generated a Merchant ID cert in the Apple Developer account with that CSR.
Imported the Merchant ID cert back into Keychain Access and exported as a p12 file the cert and the private key used to generate the CSR.
Imported the p12 file into Windows 2012 R2.
I can see in our debugging that the new certificate is being loaded but a SSL/TSL connection couldn't be made. So it seems there is an issue with the cert.
Has anyone encountered this? I'm out of ideas at this point and under a lot of pressure from management to fix what was supposed to be a routine maintenance issue.
If anyone has any ideas, that would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, I’ve been trying to integrate Apple Pay, but for some reason, the payment button is not showing up.
The project is built with Laravel 11 and Vue. I imported the script as follows:
<script crossorigin crossorigin
src="https://applepay.cdn-apple.com/jsapi/1.latest/apple-pay-sdk.js"
></script>
Then I added the following the steps:
<style>
apple-pay-button {{
--apple-pay-button-width: --apple-pay-button-width: 150px;;
--apple-pay-button-height: --apple-pay-button-height: 30px;;
--apple-pay-button-border-radius: --apple-pay-button-border-radius: 3px;;
--apple-pay-button-padding: --apple-pay-button-padding: 0px 0px;;
--apple-pay-button-box-sizing: border-box;
}
</style>
<apple-pay-button buttonstyle="black" type="plain" locale="en-US"></apple-pay-button>
I followed all the steps from the official Apple Pay demo:
https://applepaydemo.apple.com/
I also configured the Content Security Policy (CSP) to allow all necessary resources. However, when I test my integration, the button doesn’t appear. I’ve checked the console, but there are no errors.
At the same time, I have my certificate imported into the Keychain, and I’ve completed the entire process of creating both the certificate and the private key. However, when I try to validate the session using the certificate and key with Apple’s API, I get an error:
400 The SSL certificate error

Hello. I have a few questions about the implementation of Apple Pay payments on websites. Could you help me
From the documentation:
Apple Pay issues an Apple Pay Merchant Token if the user’s payment network supports merchant-specific payment tokens. Otherwise, Apple Pay issues a device token for the payment request.
How can we determine whether a token is a merchant token or a device token?
Is it possible to determine this by any of the token fields? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/passkit/payment-token-format-reference
Is it possible to understand this in other ways?
Can I make recurring payments with the device token if it was issued instead of the merchant token?
Is it necessary to include the tokenNotificationURL when generating a merchant token, or can we generate one without specifying it?
What does the applicationExpirationDate field in the merchant token represent? Is this the date when the device token or merchant token expires and payments cannot be made with it?
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 ]

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.
We are working with a large fintech org on project connected with provisioning payment cards to Apple Wallet.
When we add a previously provisioned card to the Wallet (using the Wallet UI, Add card -> Previous card). It adds the card on one device showing the Express Travel card screen after the card is added allowing the user to set the card as an express travel card during the provisioning flow but never on our other devices. All of the test devices are clean and have only the same single card provisioned.
What triggers the Express Travel Card screen to be shown during the add previous card flow? (Why is it showing on one device and not another).
Hi.
I am writing to request clarification regarding the renewal period of the merchant certificate. According to the documentation, Apple issues merchant certificates for 25 months, and this has been the case for several years. However, in the past six months, the issued certificates have been valid for only 3 months, which causes significant inconvenience.
I have reviewed the documentation again and contacted support, but I was only referred back to the same information stating that the certificate should be valid for 25 months. Could you please clarify whether there have been any recent changes to the renewal policy? Additionally, is there a way to extend the certificate's validity to the expected 25-month period?
I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue.

I am working on implementing merchant token notifications. When calling this endpoint https://developer.apple.com/documentation/merchanttokennotificationservices/merchant-token-event-retrieval, the result contains a CardMetadata object with an expirationDate field (see https://developer.apple.com/documentation/merchanttokennotificationservices/cardmetadata). What is the format of this field? The spec only mentions that it has a maximum length of 8 characters.

we are currently using the requestAutomaticPassPresentationSuppression API in my app. to prevent the Wallet interface from appearing when an NFC/RF reader is detected during active app usage.
Recently, a new transit card supporting Express Mode (T-money Transit Card) was released in Korea, and we are seeing an increasing number of users enabling Express Mode.
However, this has introduced an issue where users are unable to use the BLE-based functionality we provide via our widget. Specifically, when the user taps our widget, it triggers a BLE signal broadcast for approximately 10 seconds. In this scenario, when the user brings their iPhone close to our reader, Express Mode is activated before the BLE interaction can be established. This prevents the BLE signal from being successfully received and processed.
We would like to ask:
Is it possible to suppress Express Mode behavior (similar to requestAutomaticPassPresentationSuppression) even when the app is launched via a widget interaction?
Alternatively, is there any way to delay or defer Express Mode activation temporarily when launching from a widget or during BLE communication?
We would appreciate any guidance or best practices you can share regarding this scenario.
Thank you.

Hello,
I'm experiencing an irregular issue with Apple Pay merchant domain verification. As you know, Apple requires domain verification every two months to maintain Apple Pay functionality.
The problem is that while the verification sometimes happens automatically without any issues, other times it fails to complete, even though the required file "apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt" is correctly available on our server.
When automatic verification fails, the Apple Pay service becomes non-functional on our website, forcing us to perform a manual verification to restore the pending service.
Is it normal to encounter such inconsistent automatic verification processes?
What could be causing these intermittent verification failures, whereas manual verification always succeed? suggesting this might not be related to IP address restrictions described on the Apple documentation.
Thank you in advance,
During the development of our 3D game project, we encountered high memory usage requirements. To address this, we enabled Apple’s Extended Virtual Addressing (EVA) and Increased Memory Limit services.
We have confirmed that both services were enabled in the developer backend as well as in Xcode, and we also used updated development and distribution certificates when building the app. However, in our validation process, it seems that EVA and Increased Memory Limit are not taking effect — the game still experiences memory overflow and crashes.
Could you please advise:
The correct steps to properly use Extended Virtual Addressing and Increased Memory Limit;
How we can confirm whether these services are functioning as expected?
Hello,
I could not find where I can change the sellers name. Why is the first letter always capitalized?
Do I have to change it via Developer-Account or App-Development or Payment-Provider?

Hi,
For one of my projects, I am using the Web Drop-in component of Adyen PSP on a Salesforce B2B Commerce site. One of the payment methods is Apple Pay. The payment method is rendered, but the Apple Pay button is not clickable. We tried debugging it but could not identify the root cause. Could you advise how this issue can be fixed?
Thanks

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.
