Hi Team, For last 24 hours one of our team members is unable to login to apple dev portal due to two factor authentication not being sent. Error we are getting is "Verification codes can't be sent to this phone number at this time. Please try again later"

Hello! We use Apple's "master account" scheme to register new clients trough API due to the fact that the number of merchant IDs in a developer account cannot exceed 100 records. It's been almost a year since we successfully used the master account ( ex. "merchant.com.xxx") and register clients via Postman. At the moment, the certificates for the master merchant ID start to expire on July 11 which will affect all customers which is under Master ID. We know that when updating certificates at the identifier level(our master id), new universal identity certificate files that we use to send to the merchants (merchant_id.pem, privkey.key) will be generated for authentication on the merchant side, as well as a new keystore. Since many of our clients are integrated with current files and keystores and have live traffic, we would like to know—is it possible to update certificates on the master account without changing the keystores and certificate identities? The impossibility of this will entail a large gap when switching to new certificates. Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hello! We are using "Apple Pay Web Merchant Registration API" https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/applepaywebmerchantregistrationapi Recently we successfully updated the Payment/identity certificates at our main merchant ID And we have a few questions: Do we need make the Domain verification for all of our sub-merchants again after the Certificates update? How we can check the expiration of domain verification of merchants that we integrate trough API endpoint (https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/registerMerchant), and do verified domains via API have an expiration date??? How we can understand does the our universal domain verification file (apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association) have expiration too? Thanks in advance!

Cybersource production support has clarified issue as below "On the BAD Case, it seems that the Apple Payload did not contain the "onlinePaymentCryptogram" object within the JSON. The Cryptogram is critical and mandatory. Since the merchant cannot really control this, and since CYBS is just decrypting the payload and uses it, we cannot comment as to why it was missing. The merchant would need to reach out to Apple and/or decrypt the payment themselves locally to check if and why this data was not present, for troubleshooting purposes."

Hello, we develop a banking app and have successfully provisioned our cards (they are in the Wallet). But the method passes() of PassKit library always returns empty list. What may be the reason of this? Thanks.

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?

Our company sells insurance and we'd like to offer annual renewals via Apple Pay on the Web. Most of the docs seem to point towards using recurringpaymentrequest but this method required an amount value which would only be calculated at renewal time. It appears that Shopify is doing something akin to what we want where they do auto payments so my question is can we do annual payments with unknown renewal prices with Apple Pay for Web ? What we cannot do is show the renewal price like this as it being insurance is almost certain to change. This is our current code which works but won't get past the regulator. const applePayPaymentRequestAnnual = { countryCode: 'GB', currencyCode: 'GBP', supportedNetworks: ['visa', 'masterCard'], merchantCapabilities: ['supports3DS'], requiredBillingContactFields: ['postalAddress', 'email'], requiredShippingContactFields: ['phone'], recurringPaymentRequest: { paymentDescription: 'Annual Insurance Renewal', regularBilling: { label: 'Annual Renewal Premium', amount: price, paymentTiming: "recurring", recurringPaymentIntervalUnit: "year", recurringPaymentStartDate: year + "-" + month + "-" + day + "T00:00:00.000Z", type: 'final' }, managementURL: window.location.protocol + '//' + window.location.host + '/manage-policy', tokenNotificationURL: window.location.protocol + '//' + window.location.host + '/apple-pay-notifications' }, lineItems: [{ label: alabel, amount: price, }], total: { label: alabel, amount: price, type: "final" }, }

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": { "label": "Demo (Card is not charged)", "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, "deviceManufacturerIdentifier": "050110030273", "paymentDataType": "3DSecure", "paymentData": { "onlinePaymentCryptogram": "MCt5xR+VnQAAAAM/8mUjAAADFIA=" }, "merchantTokenIdentifier": "DM4MMC1US000000042e438d170774669844e732a41c28e97", "merchantTokenMetadata": { "cardMetadata": { "longDescription": "Test Bank for MasterCard MTF", "cardCountry": "US", "shortDescription": "Test Bank 2", "fpanSuffix": "0049" }, "cardArt": [ { "url": "https://nc-crt-smp-device-asset.apple.com:443/broker/v1/assets/174ce63257704d93b00aff8aa09ec0d5", "name": "cardBackgroundCombined@2x.png", "type": "image/png" } ] } } Thanks in advance for your help and guidance.

Hello, I’m experiencing a strange issue with a newly created Subscription Group in my iOS app. For all my existing subscription groups, everything works perfectly — initial purchase, renewals, cancellations, all notifications arrive normally. But for this one newly created group, the first purchase never triggers any server notification from App Store Server Notifications (ASSN). ⸻ 📘 Problem Summary • I created a new Subscription Group in App Store Connect. • The products are all Approved and Published for over a week. • Users can successfully purchase the subscription in production. • The purchase is shown as Purchased in the App Store purchase UI. • The receipt can be fetched locally on device. • But my server receives no notifications, including: • DID_RENEW • DID_CHANGE_RENEWAL_STATUS • SUBSCRIBED • ONE_TIME_CHARGE • CONSUMPTION_REQUEST • etc. The old subscription groups still send notifications normally, so the notification URL and server infrastructure are correct.

In the docs, I see a button type with label "Pay With [apple logo]. https://aninterestingwebsite.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/apple-pay Although I don't see this type as an option here: https://aninterestingwebsite.com/documentation/PassKit/PKPaymentButtonType Wondering if I'm looking in the right place and if this button type is still available?

Bank Accounts details are outdated and status is stack on processing with error: "Your banking updates are processing, and you should see the changes in 24 hours. You won't be able to make any additional updates until then." This is now stack for a few years since we activated a previous Apple developer account. we must change banking details as it holds up development of an app with in-app purchases. Finance department has been contacted and they do not answer What shall we do? senior support staff keep referring to finance department and is not helping

We have verified our domain but if the file is removed from the deployed site after verification will this impact using ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities in real time? We use that method from the JS api in our React app to determine whether or not to show the apple pay button. When that function is called in the browser, do the apple servers ping the https://our.domain.com/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association URL at that time? Or do they check for it periodically? The reason for asking is that with our many environments we wonder if we can verify each environment's domain by adding the file once. The file will be wiped out by our CICD process as it goes up the environment stack through our development workflow. Or do we need to maintain that file for each environment and add something to our build process?

Hello, Apologies if this has been asked before but I have a website that takes subscriptions and payments through PayPal. It's a platform where authors can sell ebooks and anyone who purchaes an ebook, the money goes pretty much directly from the buyer's PayPal to the seller PayPal through the use of PayPal Multiparty where my platform acts as a third party that takes a fee. I'm currently building a React-Native app for my website and coming close to needing to integrate payment solutions. As far as I'm aware, Apple only allows Apple Pay payments for IAP and subscriptions? How would this work for my model? Can I integrate PayPal into Apple Pay like I do with my website? If not, what's the alternative?

Hi, When I try to add a card to wallet, I get this PKPassKitErrorDomain Code=2 error from my logs, and from the SysDiagnose, I get some more detailed error log Error details: Date: December 15, 2025 Time: 15:16 UTC Request URL: https://nc-pod9-smp-device.apple.com:443/broker/v4/devices/041B4183BA1490022104102123315131EBFE2BE7… Response: HTTP Status: 500 – Internal Server Error Time profile: 0.505452 seconds Response headers: Server: Apple Content-Type: text/html X-Content-Type-Options: nosniffStrict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubdomainsDate: Mon, 15 Dec 2025 15:16:59 GMT X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=blockCross-Origin-Opener-Policy: same-origin Content-Length: 170 Connection: close Response body: Anyone have faced this problem before?

Recently, we completed a merger with our parent company. We are currently integrated with Apple Pay in accordance with the “Apple Pay Payment Processing on the Web” guidelines. Due to the change in the legal entity, we proceeded with the account migration process as outlined below: Creation of a new Apple Developer account and a new Apple Pay Identifier Removal of the Merchant Domain (dc2-web.happy.co.kr) from the existing Identifier Registration of the Merchant Domain (dc2-web.happy.co.kr) under the new Identifier Using the Merchant Domain registered under the new Identifier and the Apple Pay Merchant Identity Certificate issued from the new Identifier, we attempted to obtain an Apple Pay session by sending requests to the following endpoint: https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/startSession However, we are intermittently receiving failure responses with an HTTP 400 status code. With regard to these intermittent failures, we would like to inquire whether there is any propagation delay on Apple’s servers when an Apple Pay Identifier is removed and re-registered under a new account, or if there could be any other possible causes for this behavior. We would appreciate your guidance on this matter.

We are facing an issue with Apple Pay address details while customers are placing orders on our production site. By default, the following values are being passed during checkout: First Name: ApplePay Last Name: Express Address: ApplePay Street When we manually enter these same details, our validation correctly prevents the order from being placed and displays an appropriate error message. However, on our production site, real customers are still able to successfully place orders with these exact details. Could you please help us understand: How these orders are being allowed to proceed despite the validation? Is this behaviour expected from Apple Pay ? How can we prevent orders from being placed with such placeholder address details? Please let us know if you need any additional information from our side. We have also attached an image showing the address details and the corresponding order number for reference. Thanks in advance for your support.

I developed a web app using .net c#. The app runs a workflow which included Apple payment. App can work on any browser of any device (even non-IOS). When the app is browsed using PC windows Chrome browser, the payment sheet will show with QR code to scan using iPhone. If I cancelled the pop-up by clicking on X without scanning the code, and then returned to idle screen and performed another payment, I will reach paymentRequest.Show() but nothing will show and no errors are logged in console. Note that: I use Payment Request API The issue appear on the second payment. The issue will be solved once I refresh the page. My app supports both single and separate pages mode and issue appear on both. I used to see an error "Uncaught NotSupportedError: Failed to execute 'define' on 'CustomElementRegistry': the name apple spinner has already been used with this registry. So I thought the issue might be in loading the apple SDK script multiple times, and solved the issue to be loaded only once. The error disappeared but the issue persist without errors.

I’m having an issue verifying a domain for a Merchant ID. I’m implementing Apple Pay on the web for a demo, and I’ve configured the Azure server to match Apple’s requirements for domain verification, such as the TLS configuration, not requiring client certificates, and ensuring there are no redirects. I’ve run tests with OpenSSL and PowerShell and all responses return HTTP/1.1 200 OK. I also tested the URL Apple says it uses to validate the file under .well-known, and it does show the expected result. I already have the Apple Pay Payment Processing Certificate and the Apple Pay Merchant Identity Certificate approved; the only thing missing is the domain verification. I’m not sure what else to test—if you could help me with a possible solution, I’d really appreciate it. (The project is built in .NET 8 and hosted on Azure App Service.)

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

Hello, We are implementing Apple Wallet extensions (PKIssuerProvisioningExtensionHandler). While our UI extension works as expected, our Non-UI extension is unable to detect payment passes provisioned by our app. Specifically, PKPassLibrary().passes(of: .secureElement) returns an empty array when called from the Non-UI extension, even though the same call correctly returns the passes when executed from the Main iOS App. Our Payment Network Operator has confirmed that our extension bundle identifiers are correctly registered in the metadata on their side. They suggested that the Wallet Extensions entitlement (com.apple.developer.payment-pass-provisioning) may require additional backend enablement for these specific Extension App IDs. Is there a known reason why PKPassLibrary would behave differently in the Non-UI extension vs the Main App? Beyond the standard entitlement request, is there a specific process to "activate" these IDs for extension visibility? Does anyone have guidance on reaching the appropriate team for backend entitlement activation issues? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
