We are implementing Apple Pay and Wallet features in our app and using mocked data for testing purposes. Specifically, in the status(completion:) method of PKIssuerProvisioningExtensionHandler, we return:
passEntriesAvailable: true,
remotePassEntriesAvailable: true,
requiresAuthentication: true,
In the passEntries(completion:) method, we provide mocked data for our card.
The issue is that the app icon inconsistently appears under the "From Apps on Your iPhone" section in the Wallet app. Sometimes it shows up as expected, but other times it does not.
On recent occasions, when the app is selected and mocked authorization is paased, the behavior includes a system error 'Cannot Add Card' even though we provided status that indicates that the app has available cards for Wallet.
For reference:
The app uses two bundle IDs supporting in-app provisioning and
PNO Pass Metadata has not been configured yet.
Could you help clarify the potential reasons for this inconsistent behavior?

We are attempting to integrate the Apple Pay service into our website and have successfully verified our domain with Apple manually. However, we consistently receive an 'ApplePay reverify failed' email a month before the expiration time. Upon checking, we updated the SSL certificate for the domain before receiving the email, and the link still works fine in the browser. We would greatly appreciate any feedback from someone who can help us with this issue.
Hi!
I am working on automating the Apple Pay integration process in our CI/CD pipeline and would like to confirm whether a fully automated setup is currently possible for our preproduction environment.
Right now, our process is as follows:
A certificate is generated for the root domain and for each individual merchant subdomain.
Both certificates are manually uploaded to our preproduction servers to test and verified via HTTP.
We’d like to automate this flow in GitLab CI, mainly the generation of the necessary certificates programmatically or via API. However, from my research, it seems that Apple does not currently provide an API or any support to automate this task, but I’d like to confirm this directly with you.
Is there any official support or workaround for this kind of automation?
If not, do you have any plans to provide it in the future?
Thanks in advance for your help.
'Company A' is scheduled to merge with its parent company, 'Company B'. Both A and B have Apple accounts.
A's account has one domain registered for Apple Pay integration, while Account B has no domain registered.
We attempted to register A’s domain under B’s account.
However, the notification 'Requested domain name has been verified previously.' appeared, and we could not complete the registration.
Please confirm whether it is correct that a domain already registered under Account A cannot be registered again under Account B.
If we cannot register same domain in two accounts, we believe that the domain registered under A's account must be deleted first and then registered under B's account.
In that case, will payments become unavailable immediately upon deletion of the domain, or will payments still be possible for a certain period of time after deletion?
In our testing, we found that payments were not blocked immediately, but we would like to confirm further.
We are concerned about the possibility of transaction failures during the short period between deleting the domain from A's Account and registering it under B's Account.

I’m restructuring my business and want to remove Apple Pay. I use Woocommerce Square for payments. Do I do it in the Square dashboard or here? I honestly can’t remember how I set it up. I’m not a developer. I’m a farmer and work on my own website. Thanks!
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".

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.

We have an Apple Pay account and have successfully created and verified the payment processing certificate in our Apple Developer account.
When initiating an Apple Pay payment, the Apple session is created successfully with the correct data return from api , but it is not accepted with the error: “Payment not completed.”
The issue occurs even though the merchant validation step works without errors.
Our websites where this is happening are:
https://magicdeliver.com/
https://www.pulsarmodular.com/
Could you please help us identify the cause of the issue and guide us on resolving it?
When I click to my Apple Pay button, my function below doesn't trigger the completeMerchantValidation method as expected, but the oncancel method (which logs errorCode "unknown" in Safari developer tools) :
const processApplePayment = async () => {
if (window.ApplePaySession) {
const session = new window.ApplePaySession(6, {
countryCode: 'FR',
currencyCode: 'EUR',
merchantCapabilities: ['supports3DS'],
supportedNetworks: ['visa', 'masterCard'],
total: {
label: `Bon d'achat ${partnerName}`,
type: 'final',
amount: cartTotalValue.toString()
}
});
session.onvalidatemerchant = async event => {
try {
const merchantSession = await validateMerchantSession(event.validationURL);
console.log('merchant session : ', merchantSession);
if (!merchantSession) {
console.error('Invalid Apple Pay merchant session');
}
session.completeMerchantValidation(merchantSession);
} catch (error) {
console.error('merchant validation error : ', error);
session.abort();
}
};
session.onpaymentauthorized = async event => {
console.log('payment authorization event : ', event);
try {
const link = await authorizePayment(
event.payment.token,
userInfo,
partnerId,
order.id
);
console.log('payment authorized link : ', link);
window.location.href = link;
} catch (error) {
console.error('Apple Payment authoriation error : ', error);
const errorUrl = `${PATH.EBON_ERROR_PATH}-${partnerId}?paiement=error&orderId=${order.id}`;
window.location.href = errorUrl;
}
};
session.oncancel = event => console.log('Apple Pay cancel event : ', event);
session.begin();
}
};
The validateMerchantSession function successfully returns this payment session from Apple server :
{
"epochTimestamp":1739279973502,
"expiresAt":1739283573502,
"merchantSessionIdentifier":"SSH108C7ED6746A48E38EA8D253D33CCAA5_916523AAED1343F5BC5815E12BEE9250AFFDC1A17C46B0DE5A943F0F94927C24",

}
What could I do wrong and how could I fix it please ?

Hi,
We have app in which we take donations from people and send to non-profit organisations. I have read that Apple Pay can be integrated on non profit platforms to take donations, but we are middle man, we are not non profit .. we take donations, cut our platform fees and then sent to donations to non profit orgs.
My question is can we integrate Apple Pay in our iOS app to take donations from apple? as we have integrated Apple Pay on the web.

Hello,
We are currently implementing iOS order verification and have encountered an issue. Some of the receipts we verify return with an empty in_app array, which makes it impossible to determine whether there is a valid in-app purchase.
Below is the code we’re using for verification and the result we receive:
Code Example:
public function iosVerifyReceipt($receipt, $password = '', $sandbox = false)
{
$url = $sandbox ? 'https://sandbox.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt' : 'https://buy.itunes.apple.com/verifyReceipt';
if (empty($password)) {
$data = json_encode(['receipt-data' => $receipt]);
} else {
$data = json_encode(['receipt-data' => $receipt, 'password' => $password]);
}
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
$result = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$result = json_decode($result, true);
$result = $result ?? [];
$result['sandbox'] = $sandbox;
if ($result['status'] != 0) {
Log::warning('ios verify receipt failed', ['receipt' => $receipt, 'result' => $result, 'sandbox' => $sandbox]);
if ($result['status'] == 21007) {
return $this->iosVerifyReceipt($receipt, $password, true);
}
}
return $result;
}
// Order validation check
if (empty($result) || $result['status'] != 0) {
throw new BadRequestHttpException("Ios Order Verify Error");
}
$appItemId = $result['receipt']['app_item_id'] ?? "";
if ($appItemId != MY_APP_ID) {
throw new BadRequestHttpException("Ios Order Verify Error");
}
$inApp = array_filter(
$result['receipt']['in_app'] ?? [],
function ($item) use ($transactionId,$order) {
return $item['transaction_id'] == $transactionId && $item['product_id'] == $order->getProductId();
}
);
if (empty($inApp)) {
throw new BadRequestHttpException( "Ios Order Verify Error");

I am attempting to verify my domain
https://technoq.genesistechnologies.tech
for use with Apple Pay Merchant ID. However, when I attempt verification, the process fails with the message:
“Domain verification failed.”
Unfortunately, no additional details are provided.
I have already completed the following steps:
Downloaded the verification file apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt.
Placed it in the .well-known directory as instructed.
Confirmed that it is publicly accessible at:
https://technoq.genesistechnologies.tech/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt
Verified that a valid SSL certificate is configured for the domain.
Could you please advise on why the verification might be failing and what additional steps I should take to resolve this issue?

I have an Apple subscription with a 2-week introductory offer and a 3-month promotional offer code. There are 2 subscription plans:
1-month subscription
12-month subscription
For the 1-month plan, my promotional offer code is "Monthly_Free," and for the 12-month plan, my promotional offer code is "Yearly_Free." However, when users try to enter the respective promo codes for the 1-month or 12-month plans, they receive the following error:
"Offer not available. Your account is not eligible for this offer. You can still subscribe at the regular plan price."
This works fine in the sandbox account, where I can use the promo codes as many times as needed, switching between the 1-month and 12-month plans easily. What could be the issue here?

We received a request directly from /apple/notifications. This subscription is not a renewal, but a first-time purchase. We associate the originalTransactionId with the user's ID to identify the subscribed user. However, since we do not have access to the user's ID on our server through this direct request, we are unable to properly process the subscription.
How should we handle this type of subscription request?
What is the source of this subscription, and why are some users able to bypass in-app purchases for first-time subscriptions and make the purchase directly?

Hi support,
Since June 26th 2025 we are experiencing an issue with the ApplePay SSL server certificate installed on our servers in Production environment.
We are facing an exception error during the initializing of a payment session while calling the url:
https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/startSession
The exception is Untrusted Server Certificate Chain:
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertificateException: Untrusted Server Certificate Chain

It seems that the issue occurs randomly: we are experiencing this exception on most of our payment transactions, but there are some cases of users that have correctly paid on our site using this method and in those cases this error did not appear.
We installed the new certificate on our servers on July 3rd 2025 and renewed on Aug 7th 2025.
The new certificate validity is:
Not Before: Aug 6 18:43:52 2025 GMT
Not After : Nov 4 18:08:57 2025 GMT
I must specify that this issue is blocking the correct placement of AppleyPay orders of our customers.
Can you please help us find the problem and a possible solution?

I have the HCE entitlements, but it's not clear from the documentation I have, how to configure my app as the default app for the double tap of the power button.
Nor can i see where this is in iOS 18.2 settings. The closest I can find is 'Settings > Default Apps > Contactless App', which still shows only Wallet after I install my app with all the new entitlements and provisioning profile. I have these entitlement successfully provisioning my app:
<key>com.apple.developer.nfc.hce</key>
<true/>

The documentation here: https://developer.apple.com/support/hce-transactions-in-apps/ also references a link to changes in Info.plist, but the url takes me to storekit-external-entitlement documentation about dating apps in the netherlands ???!!!???
Any help would be appreciated to at least get started by allowing me to change the double tap action to my app.
Thanks
