Gathering Required Information for Troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification Issues
Hi, You're here because you've had issues with your implementation of In-App Provisioning Extensions for Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification. To prevent sending sensitive credentials in plain text, create a new report in Feedback Assistant to share the details requested below with the appropriate log profiles installed. Gathering Required Information for Troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification Issues While troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification, it is essential that the issuer is able to collect logs on their device and check those logs for error message. This is also essential when reporting issues to Apple. To gather the required data for your own debugging as well as reporting issues, please perform the following steps on the test device: Install the Apple Pay and Wallet profiles on your iOS or watchOS device. If the issue occurs on Mac, continue to Step 2. Reproduce the issue and make a note of the timestamp when the issue occurred, while optionally capturing screenshots or video. Gather a sysdiagnose on the same iOS or watchOS device, or on macOS. Create a Feedback Assistant report with the following information: The bundle IDs App bundle ID Non-UI app extension bundle ID (if applicable) UI app extension bundle ID (if applicable) The serial number of the device. For iOS and watchOS: Open Settings > General > About > Serial Number (tap and hold to copy). For macOS: Open the Apple () menu > About This Mac > Serial Number. The SEID (Secure Element Identifier) of the device, represented as a HEX encoded string. For iOS and watchOS: Open Settings > General > About > SEID (tap and hold to copy). For macOS: Open the Apple () menu > About This Mac > System Report > NVMExpress > Serial Number. The sysdiagnose gathered after reproducing the issue. The timestamp (including timezone) of when the issue was reproduced. The type of provisioning failure (e.g., error at Terms & Conditions, error when adding a card, etc.) The issuer/network/country of the provisioned card (e.g., Mastercard – US) Last 4 digits of the FPAN Last 4 digits of the DPAN (if available) Was this test initiated from the Issuer App? (e.g., yes or no) The type of environment (e.g., sandbox or production) Screenshots or videos of errors and unexpected behaviors (optional). Important: From the logs gathered above, you should be able to determine the cause of the failure from PassbookUIService, PassKit or PassKitCore, and by filtering for your SEID or bundle ID of your app or app extensions in the Console app. Submitting your feedback Before you submit to Feedback Assistant, please confirm the requested information above is included in your feedback. Failure to provide the requested information will only delay my investigation into the reported issue within your Apple Pay client. After your submission to Feedback Assistant is complete, please respond in your existing Developer Forums post with the Feedback ID. Once received, I can begin my investigation and determine if this issue is caused by an error within your client, a configuration issue within your developer account, or an underlying system bug.

Integrating Apple Pay into an HTML inline frame (iframe) on your website
iOS 16 and earlier On iOS 16 and earlier, Apple Pay on the Web required Safari—and all interactions with the Apple Pay API to come from the parent/top level page. In order to facilitate the Apple Pay button in an HTML inline frame (iframe), there will need to be cross frame communication between the child and parent pages. Cross frame communication should be secure and robust, therefore the use of postMessage for this purpose is recommended. The expectation is for all communication with Apple Pay to occur from the parent page, so the iframe must relay all Apple Pay related events to the parent to handle. Some examples: Apple Pay availability: The parent calls applePayCapabilities, then sends the message of the response to the iframe, which then uses the value to toggle the visibility of the Apple Pay button. Apple Pay session: The iframe receives an onclick() event when the Apple Pay button is clicked and sends the message to the parent (providing details about the transaction). The parent create the payment request to obtain the session validation URL, and eventually receive session credentials and invokes completeMerchantValidation() to prevent the payment sheet. After the payment is authorized by the Payment Service Provider (PSP), the parent either: Redirects the parent page to a payment success page; or Sends a message to the iframe to complete the transaction flow itself. iOS 17 and later On IOS 17 and later, the iframe HTML element should include the allow="payment" attribute, which should facilitate the cross frame communications instead of needing a dedicated JavaScript library. This means all of the Apple Pay code/calls can reside in the iframe page—which is typically a hosted page from a Payment Service Provider (PSP), all the parent page—typically a merchant—has to do is add the attribute mentioned above to the iframe element. Important: Regardless of the iOS version, the PSP/merchant always needs to make sure the parent page domain is the one registered in the Developer portal, and used in the request to generate a merchant session via ApplePaySession.

Conflicting Results Between canMakePayments and applePayCapabilities in Apple Pay JS
Hi everyone, We’ve recently run into an issue with Apple Pay on the web and would appreciate some clarification. Background: Previously, we integrated Apple Pay without using the Apple Pay JS SDK. We relied on ApplePaySession.canMakePayments() to check availability, and it worked fine. After Apple announced support for browsers beyond Safari, we switched to the Apple Pay JS SDK. According to Apple’s documentation, we should now use applePayCapabilities() for capability checks in third-party browsers. Our current behavior: We implemented applePayCapabilities(). Initially, it was returning either paymentCredentialStatusUnknown or paymentCredentialsUnavailable. Based on those values, we displayed the Apple Pay button. The problem: About a week ago, on the same device/browser, applePayCapabilities() started returning applePayUnsupported. Setup: MacBook Pro 13-inch (M1, 2020), Google Chrome Version 136.0.7103.93. The Apple documentation says: “Don’t show an Apple Pay button or offer Apple Pay” when the result is applePayUnsupported. However, at the same time, canMakePayments() is returning true. This creates a direct conflict between the two recommendations: canMakePayments() → true ⇒ show the button. applePayCapabilities() → applePayUnsupported ⇒ don’t show the button. Question: What’s the correct approach here? Should we prioritize applePayCapabilities() and hide the button, or is it acceptable to continue relying only on canMakePayments() as the source of truth for showing Apple Pay? Any insights from others who’ve run into this contradiction would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!

PKPaymentButtonType.plain renders blank on iOS 26.1 when built with Xcode 26 (snapshot returns transparent image)
Hello Apple Team, I’ve encountered a regression in iOS 26.1 when building my app with Xcode 26 (iOS 26 SDK). The issue affects PKPaymentButtonType.plain, which now renders as fully invisible and produces transparent snapshots, even though the same code worked correctly in previous Xcode/iOS versions. This has a real-world impact because many apps generate static images from PKPaymentButton for payment selection UIs using UIGraphicsImageRenderer, layer.render(in:), or custom snapshot utilities. When using PKPaymentButton(paymentButtonType: .plain, paymentButtonStyle: .black) on iOS 26.1, when built with Xcode 26, the button: Appears blank / invisible Cannot be snapshotted Produces a fully transparent UIImage, even though the CGImage object exists Behaves differently than older SDKs (Xcode 16.x / iOS < 26.1 This regression only appears when compiling with the new SDK. Other button types work fine. Expected Behavior .plain button should render glyphs as documented snapshot generated via UIGraphicsImageRenderer or drawHierarchy(in:) should produce a visible image Behavior should be consistent with older SDKs unless explicitly deprecated in release notes Expected Behavior .plain button should render glyphs as documented Snapshot generated via UIGraphicsImageRenderer or drawHierarchy(in:) should produce a visible image Behavior should be consistent with older SDKs unless explicitly deprecated in release notes Actual Behavior .plain button renders no glyph at all Snapshot image is fully transparent (alpha = 0), even though size and CGImage metadata are correct Only happens when built with Xcode 26 SDK Same build from Xcode 16.x does not reproduce the issue Steps to Reproduce Create a minimal sample project in Xcode 26 Add the following code: let button = PKPaymentButton(paymentButtonType: .plain, paymentButtonStyle: .black) button.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 180, height: 48) let renderer = UIGraphicsImageRenderer(size: button.bounds.size) let image = renderer.image { _ in button.drawHierarchy(in: button.bounds, afterScreenUpdates: true) } print(image) Run on iOS 26.1 device or simulator Observe that: The button appears visually empty The generated image is fully transparent Environment Xcode: 26.x (iOS 26 SDK) iOS: 26.1 (iPhone 15 Pro tested) Device: Real device Framework: UIKit + PassKit Button type: .plain ONLY Other types: .pay/.buy/.checkout = OK

Request Guidance on Apple Pay Web Push Provisioning Enablement for Issuer Program Post Content:
We are currently supporting an Apple Pay-enabled card program as an issuer/issuer processor and have successfully completed In-App Push Provisioning integration within our iOS application. The in-app flow is fully operational, including issuer-side cryptographic exchange and Mastercard MDES network tokenization. We are now looking to extend this integration to support Apple Pay Web Push Provisioning, allowing cardholders to add eligible cards to Apple Wallet directly from our web application. We would appreciate guidance on: -The process for enrolling in Apple Business Register (if required) -Enabling Web Push Provisioning for an issuer profile Required entitlements or provisioning certificates Any additional onboarding steps specific to issuer-level Web provisioning We understand that Web Push Provisioning requires issuer-level enablement beyond standard Apple Pay on the Web, and we would like clarification on the correct path to activate this capability. Thank you in advance for your guidance.

DPAN, MPAN, Cryptogram and Compliance
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.

ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities() started returning applePayUnsupported in third-party browsers
We rely on ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities() to decide whether to show the Apple Pay button. We use two different merchant IDs for non-prod/prod environments, and encountered a change in behavior where this API now returns different results. These merchant IDs are generated from a third-party provider Adyen. However, Adyen has informed us that they are unable to identify the root cause of the issue and advised us to seek assistance directly from Apple Pay support. Timeline Last known working date: 13/08/2025 Issue first noticed: 18/08/2025 Environment Details Apple Pay JS API version 1.latest Browsers Tested: Third party browsers including Chrome/139.0.0.0, Firefox/141.0 Browsers with ApplePaySession built-in (like iOS Chrome, iOS Safari, and macOS Safari) are working fine Framework Stack: Angular v18.1.3 (important) no configuration setup in Apple dev account, merchantId is generated from a third-party provider Adyen. Current Execution Flow: Apple Pay JS API script element is injected <script type="text/javascript" async="" src="https://applepay.cdn-apple.com/jsapi/1.latest/apple-pay-sdk.js"></script> Triggers below to check apple pay readiness, different ${merchantId_credential} is used: await window.ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities(`${merchantId_credential}`); (**ApplePaySession is a valid object at this point) Observed that different paymentCredentialStatus is returned // nonprod env { "paymentCredentialStatus": "applePayUnsupported" // unexpected } // prod env { "paymentCredentialStatus": "paymentCredentialStatusUnknown" } The same code is executed in each environment and the behaviour was also the same, but has changed since then. Side notes By checking the SDK’s internal code, we saw that in third-party browsers it makes an extra call to the following endpoint. Responses from this call also come back differently depending on the merchantId. When invoking below: curl -X POST \ https://smp-paymentservices.apple.com/paymentservices/v3/checkStatus/merchant/{merchantId} \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{ "initiative": "web", "initiativeContext": "env_specific_domain" }' Our non-prod environment returns {"registered":false} while using prod's merchantId and domain it returns {"registered":true}. We thought the issue might be domain-related since the environments are on different domains, but so far, no luck. The main questions we're looking to resolve are: Why did the behavior change at a certain point despite no code changes? How should we approach this investigation, and what specific requests should we be making to the Adyen team? Why does the response from the call to https://smp-paymentservices.apple.com/paymentservices/v3/checkStatus/merchant/{merchantId} return different results? Perhaps this could provide a clue regarding the question above? We noticed that canMakePayments() is returning true, so we could consider using that as a workaround. Would it be safe to change the source of truth relying on canMakePayments() for displaying Apple Pay? There is a concern that this issue may also occur in our production environment, so we would appreciate assistance in understanding what is happening and finding a resolution.

Multiple Apple Pay relationships with differing apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association files
I've encountered an issue where we need multiple domain associations with separate Apple Pay implementations. Briefly, we have a /.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association already setup with Stripe, and now we need another, different version of the file to get setup with FreedomPay. FreedomPay insists this file represents a three-way relationship between all parties and I have no reason to disbelieve them. I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this or if there is a standard procedure. I'm currently trying to find documentation on the exact way Apple Pay verification interacts with this file to see if we can produce it dynamically.

How to Adding credit or debit cards from a card issuer’s website
Hi, I understand that it's possible to add a virtual debit or credit card from a mobile app into the iOS Wallet using PassKit from the Apple SDK. However, I haven't come across documentation on how to achieve this directly from a web app. I found this article on Apple's support site (https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/security/secdc2567239/web), which mentions adding cards from a card issuer’s website, but it doesn’t provide details on the process. Could you please confirm if it's possible to add a card directly from a web app without using a mobile app? If so, could you guide me to the relevant documentation? Thanks in advance!

Apple Pay Merchant Token on Web
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?

~15s Delay in startSession
Hello, We are experiencing a consistent delay when initiating Apple Pay sessions using the https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/startSession endpoint. Below is a detailed overview of our setup and the issue. Setup Our web service is hosted in AWS and there is a proxy server between our web service and Apple servers. We are passing the correct domain in the initiativeContext field of the startSession request. The .well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association file is hosted on a different domain, which is also correctly configured and associated with our merchant ID in the Apple Developer portal. Observed Behavior When the same request is made from a local development environment, Apple responds immediately (under 1 second). When the request is made from our AWS-hosted service, Apple responds with a valid session, but only after a consistent ~15-second delay. The content and response are otherwise identical — only the timing differs. We would appreciate any insights or suggestions from others who have faced similar behavior or from the Apple Pay team. Thank you in advance!

Apple Pay JS API - applePayCapabilities no longer working
We’ve noticed that the ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities() check has stopped working correctly in Safari over the past couple of days. Behavior observed: 1.) In Safari Private Window, paymentCredentialStatus behaves as expected and case 1 is triggered. 2.) In a normal Safari window, it always triggers case 3 (paymentCredentialsUnavailable), even when the user has active cards provisioned in Wallet. We tested across multiple devices, and the behavior is consistent. if (window.ApplePaySession) { var merchantIdentifier = 'YOUR MERCHANT IDENTIFIER'; var promise = ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities(merchantIdentifier); promise.then(function(capabilities) { switch (capabilities.paymentCredentialStatus) { case "paymentCredentialsAvailable": // Show Apple Pay button as primary option case "paymentCredentialStatusUnknown": // Offer Apple Pay case "paymentCredentialsUnavailable": // Consider showing Apple Pay button case "applePayUnsupported": // Don’t show Apple Pay button } }) } This used to work fine until a few days ago, but now the capability check in non-private Safari windows always indicates unavailable, even with valid active cards. Has anyone else faced this issue recently? Could this be a Safari regression or a change on Apple’s side? Thanks in advance!

Apple Pay Sandbox: onpaymentauthorized not fired after successful authentication (started March 6)
Hello, We are encountering an issue with Apple Pay on the Web in the sandbox environment where payments cannot be completed because the onpaymentauthorized event is not triggered. The same implementation was working normally until March 5, but the issue started occurring consistently from March 6 without any changes to our code, certificates, or merchant configuration. Environment Apple Pay on the Web (JavaScript) Safari (iOS / macOS) Apple Pay Sandbox Merchant domain verified Merchant validation succeeds Observed Flow The Apple Pay flow proceeds normally until authentication: User clicks the Apple Pay button ApplePaySession.begin() is called onvalidatemerchant fires Merchant validation request succeeds completeMerchantValidation() is called Apple Pay sheet is displayed User authenticates with Face ID / Touch ID onpaymentauthorized is never triggered Because this event never fires, the payment token is not returned and the payment cannot proceed. ApplePaySession Request { "countryCode": "JP", "currencyCode": "JPY", "merchantCapabilities": ["supports3DS"], "supportedNetworks": ["visa", "masterCard"], "total": { "label": "Test Payment", "type": "final", "amount": "100" } } Merchant Validation Merchant validation succeeds and returns a valid session from Apple. Relevant fields from the merchant session: merchantIdentifier: 35A786BE6AB4... domainName: secure.telecom-awstest.com displayName: ApplePay Additional Notes Apple Pay sheet appears normally Authentication completes successfully No JavaScript errors are logged onpaymentauthorized is never fired Issue occurs consistently in the sandbox environment Confirmed across multiple iOS versions Question Has anyone experienced a similar issue recently in the Apple Pay sandbox environment, or are there any known changes that could cause the onpaymentauthorized event not to fire after authentication? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Apple Pay on Google Chrome
Hi - I have a question. I am trying to understand when Apple Pay will be available on non-IOS desktop devices (specifically Google Chrome). I was hoping to understand better the process, specifically the following: How can I get the Apple Pay QR code installed on my desktop checkout page on Google Chrome? How long does this process usually take? If I work with Stripe, do I need to get approval from them to install the Apple QR code onto my Google Chrome checkout page? Is this readily available to all merchants (i.e., installing Apple Pay on Google Chrome)/ I have not seen this on any other checkout pages yet. Are there any examples you could point me to of merchants that have installed Apple Pay onto non-IOS desktop so I could trial the process (i.e., a list of existing merchants that have put the QR code onto their Google Chrome checkout pages)?

Domain Verification Failed for Apple Pay – Tried Everything
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?

Apple Pay Web: Multiple active PPCs for one Merchant ID?
Hi,
 We’re implementing Apple Pay on the Web for a multi-tenant platform via a PSP. The PSP operates multiple HSM/clusters and gave us multiple CSRs, asking us to register all.
Our understanding: a Merchant ID can hold several PPCs over time, but only one is active at once. Questions Is there any supported way to keep more than one PPC active simultaneously for the same Merchant ID? If not, what does Apple recommend for web-only, multi-tenant setups: a single MID with PSP-side decryption & sub-merchant separation, or separate MIDs per brand/region? Any official guidance on PPC rotation and handling many domains for Apple Pay on the Web? links to official docs or prior Apple responses would be appreciated.

Gathering Required Information for Troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification Issues
Hi, You're here because you've had issues with your implementation of In-App Provisioning Extensions for Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification. To prevent sending sensitive credentials in plain text, create a new report in Feedback Assistant to share the details requested below with the appropriate log profiles installed. Gathering Required Information for Troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification Issues While troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification, it is essential that the issuer is able to collect logs on their device and check those logs for error message. This is also essential when reporting issues to Apple. To gather the required data for your own debugging as well as reporting issues, please perform the following steps on the test device: Install the Apple Pay and Wallet profiles on your iOS or watchOS device. If the issue occurs on Mac, continue to Step 2. Reproduce the issue and make a note of the timestamp when the issue occurred, while optionally capturing screenshots or video. Gather a sysdiagnose on the same iOS or watchOS device, or on macOS. Create a Feedback Assistant report with the following information: The bundle IDs App bundle ID Non-UI app extension bundle ID (if applicable) UI app extension bundle ID (if applicable) The serial number of the device. For iOS and watchOS: Open Settings > General > About > Serial Number (tap and hold to copy). For macOS: Open the Apple () menu > About This Mac > Serial Number. The SEID (Secure Element Identifier) of the device, represented as a HEX encoded string. For iOS and watchOS: Open Settings > General > About > SEID (tap and hold to copy). For macOS: Open the Apple () menu > About This Mac > System Report > NVMExpress > Serial Number. The sysdiagnose gathered after reproducing the issue. The timestamp (including timezone) of when the issue was reproduced. The type of provisioning failure (e.g., error at Terms & Conditions, error when adding a card, etc.) The issuer/network/country of the provisioned card (e.g., Mastercard – US) Last 4 digits of the FPAN Last 4 digits of the DPAN (if available) Was this test initiated from the Issuer App? (e.g., yes or no) The type of environment (e.g., sandbox or production) Screenshots or videos of errors and unexpected behaviors (optional). Important: From the logs gathered above, you should be able to determine the cause of the failure from PassbookUIService, PassKit or PassKitCore, and by filtering for your SEID or bundle ID of your app or app extensions in the Console app. Submitting your feedback Before you submit to Feedback Assistant, please confirm the requested information above is included in your feedback. Failure to provide the requested information will only delay my investigation into the reported issue within your Apple Pay client. After your submission to Feedback Assistant is complete, please respond in your existing Developer Forums post with the Feedback ID. Once received, I can begin my investigation and determine if this issue is caused by an error within your client, a configuration issue within your developer account, or an underlying system bug.

Integrating Apple Pay into an HTML inline frame (iframe) on your website
iOS 16 and earlier On iOS 16 and earlier, Apple Pay on the Web required Safari—and all interactions with the Apple Pay API to come from the parent/top level page. In order to facilitate the Apple Pay button in an HTML inline frame (iframe), there will need to be cross frame communication between the child and parent pages. Cross frame communication should be secure and robust, therefore the use of postMessage for this purpose is recommended. The expectation is for all communication with Apple Pay to occur from the parent page, so the iframe must relay all Apple Pay related events to the parent to handle. Some examples: Apple Pay availability: The parent calls applePayCapabilities, then sends the message of the response to the iframe, which then uses the value to toggle the visibility of the Apple Pay button. Apple Pay session: The iframe receives an onclick() event when the Apple Pay button is clicked and sends the message to the parent (providing details about the transaction). The parent create the payment request to obtain the session validation URL, and eventually receive session credentials and invokes completeMerchantValidation() to prevent the payment sheet. After the payment is authorized by the Payment Service Provider (PSP), the parent either: Redirects the parent page to a payment success page; or Sends a message to the iframe to complete the transaction flow itself. iOS 17 and later On IOS 17 and later, the iframe HTML element should include the allow="payment" attribute, which should facilitate the cross frame communications instead of needing a dedicated JavaScript library. This means all of the Apple Pay code/calls can reside in the iframe page—which is typically a hosted page from a Payment Service Provider (PSP), all the parent page—typically a merchant—has to do is add the attribute mentioned above to the iframe element. Important: Regardless of the iOS version, the PSP/merchant always needs to make sure the parent page domain is the one registered in the Developer portal, and used in the request to generate a merchant session via ApplePaySession.

Conflicting Results Between canMakePayments and applePayCapabilities in Apple Pay JS
Hi everyone, We’ve recently run into an issue with Apple Pay on the web and would appreciate some clarification. Background: Previously, we integrated Apple Pay without using the Apple Pay JS SDK. We relied on ApplePaySession.canMakePayments() to check availability, and it worked fine. After Apple announced support for browsers beyond Safari, we switched to the Apple Pay JS SDK. According to Apple’s documentation, we should now use applePayCapabilities() for capability checks in third-party browsers. Our current behavior: We implemented applePayCapabilities(). Initially, it was returning either paymentCredentialStatusUnknown or paymentCredentialsUnavailable. Based on those values, we displayed the Apple Pay button. The problem: About a week ago, on the same device/browser, applePayCapabilities() started returning applePayUnsupported. Setup: MacBook Pro 13-inch (M1, 2020), Google Chrome Version 136.0.7103.93. The Apple documentation says: “Don’t show an Apple Pay button or offer Apple Pay” when the result is applePayUnsupported. However, at the same time, canMakePayments() is returning true. This creates a direct conflict between the two recommendations: canMakePayments() → true ⇒ show the button. applePayCapabilities() → applePayUnsupported ⇒ don’t show the button. Question: What’s the correct approach here? Should we prioritize applePayCapabilities() and hide the button, or is it acceptable to continue relying only on canMakePayments() as the source of truth for showing Apple Pay? Any insights from others who’ve run into this contradiction would be very helpful. Thanks in advance!

PKPaymentButtonType.plain renders blank on iOS 26.1 when built with Xcode 26 (snapshot returns transparent image)
Hello Apple Team, I’ve encountered a regression in iOS 26.1 when building my app with Xcode 26 (iOS 26 SDK). The issue affects PKPaymentButtonType.plain, which now renders as fully invisible and produces transparent snapshots, even though the same code worked correctly in previous Xcode/iOS versions. This has a real-world impact because many apps generate static images from PKPaymentButton for payment selection UIs using UIGraphicsImageRenderer, layer.render(in:), or custom snapshot utilities. When using PKPaymentButton(paymentButtonType: .plain, paymentButtonStyle: .black) on iOS 26.1, when built with Xcode 26, the button: Appears blank / invisible Cannot be snapshotted Produces a fully transparent UIImage, even though the CGImage object exists Behaves differently than older SDKs (Xcode 16.x / iOS < 26.1 This regression only appears when compiling with the new SDK. Other button types work fine. Expected Behavior .plain button should render glyphs as documented snapshot generated via UIGraphicsImageRenderer or drawHierarchy(in:) should produce a visible image Behavior should be consistent with older SDKs unless explicitly deprecated in release notes Expected Behavior .plain button should render glyphs as documented Snapshot generated via UIGraphicsImageRenderer or drawHierarchy(in:) should produce a visible image Behavior should be consistent with older SDKs unless explicitly deprecated in release notes Actual Behavior .plain button renders no glyph at all Snapshot image is fully transparent (alpha = 0), even though size and CGImage metadata are correct Only happens when built with Xcode 26 SDK Same build from Xcode 16.x does not reproduce the issue Steps to Reproduce Create a minimal sample project in Xcode 26 Add the following code: let button = PKPaymentButton(paymentButtonType: .plain, paymentButtonStyle: .black) button.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 180, height: 48) let renderer = UIGraphicsImageRenderer(size: button.bounds.size) let image = renderer.image { _ in button.drawHierarchy(in: button.bounds, afterScreenUpdates: true) } print(image) Run on iOS 26.1 device or simulator Observe that: The button appears visually empty The generated image is fully transparent Environment Xcode: 26.x (iOS 26 SDK) iOS: 26.1 (iPhone 15 Pro tested) Device: Real device Framework: UIKit + PassKit Button type: .plain ONLY Other types: .pay/.buy/.checkout = OK

Request Guidance on Apple Pay Web Push Provisioning Enablement for Issuer Program Post Content:
We are currently supporting an Apple Pay-enabled card program as an issuer/issuer processor and have successfully completed In-App Push Provisioning integration within our iOS application. The in-app flow is fully operational, including issuer-side cryptographic exchange and Mastercard MDES network tokenization. We are now looking to extend this integration to support Apple Pay Web Push Provisioning, allowing cardholders to add eligible cards to Apple Wallet directly from our web application. We would appreciate guidance on: -The process for enrolling in Apple Business Register (if required) -Enabling Web Push Provisioning for an issuer profile Required entitlements or provisioning certificates Any additional onboarding steps specific to issuer-level Web provisioning We understand that Web Push Provisioning requires issuer-level enablement beyond standard Apple Pay on the Web, and we would like clarification on the correct path to activate this capability. Thank you in advance for your guidance.

DPAN, MPAN, Cryptogram and Compliance
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.

ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities() started returning applePayUnsupported in third-party browsers
We rely on ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities() to decide whether to show the Apple Pay button. We use two different merchant IDs for non-prod/prod environments, and encountered a change in behavior where this API now returns different results. These merchant IDs are generated from a third-party provider Adyen. However, Adyen has informed us that they are unable to identify the root cause of the issue and advised us to seek assistance directly from Apple Pay support. Timeline Last known working date: 13/08/2025 Issue first noticed: 18/08/2025 Environment Details Apple Pay JS API version 1.latest Browsers Tested: Third party browsers including Chrome/139.0.0.0, Firefox/141.0 Browsers with ApplePaySession built-in (like iOS Chrome, iOS Safari, and macOS Safari) are working fine Framework Stack: Angular v18.1.3 (important) no configuration setup in Apple dev account, merchantId is generated from a third-party provider Adyen. Current Execution Flow: Apple Pay JS API script element is injected <script type="text/javascript" async="" src="https://applepay.cdn-apple.com/jsapi/1.latest/apple-pay-sdk.js"></script> Triggers below to check apple pay readiness, different ${merchantId_credential} is used: await window.ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities(`${merchantId_credential}`); (**ApplePaySession is a valid object at this point) Observed that different paymentCredentialStatus is returned // nonprod env { "paymentCredentialStatus": "applePayUnsupported" // unexpected } // prod env { "paymentCredentialStatus": "paymentCredentialStatusUnknown" } The same code is executed in each environment and the behaviour was also the same, but has changed since then. Side notes By checking the SDK’s internal code, we saw that in third-party browsers it makes an extra call to the following endpoint. Responses from this call also come back differently depending on the merchantId. When invoking below: curl -X POST \ https://smp-paymentservices.apple.com/paymentservices/v3/checkStatus/merchant/{merchantId} \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{ "initiative": "web", "initiativeContext": "env_specific_domain" }' Our non-prod environment returns {"registered":false} while using prod's merchantId and domain it returns {"registered":true}. We thought the issue might be domain-related since the environments are on different domains, but so far, no luck. The main questions we're looking to resolve are: Why did the behavior change at a certain point despite no code changes? How should we approach this investigation, and what specific requests should we be making to the Adyen team? Why does the response from the call to https://smp-paymentservices.apple.com/paymentservices/v3/checkStatus/merchant/{merchantId} return different results? Perhaps this could provide a clue regarding the question above? We noticed that canMakePayments() is returning true, so we could consider using that as a workaround. Would it be safe to change the source of truth relying on canMakePayments() for displaying Apple Pay? There is a concern that this issue may also occur in our production environment, so we would appreciate assistance in understanding what is happening and finding a resolution.

Multiple Apple Pay relationships with differing apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association files
I've encountered an issue where we need multiple domain associations with separate Apple Pay implementations. Briefly, we have a /.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association already setup with Stripe, and now we need another, different version of the file to get setup with FreedomPay. FreedomPay insists this file represents a three-way relationship between all parties and I have no reason to disbelieve them. I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this or if there is a standard procedure. I'm currently trying to find documentation on the exact way Apple Pay verification interacts with this file to see if we can produce it dynamically.

How to Adding credit or debit cards from a card issuer’s website
Hi, I understand that it's possible to add a virtual debit or credit card from a mobile app into the iOS Wallet using PassKit from the Apple SDK. However, I haven't come across documentation on how to achieve this directly from a web app. I found this article on Apple's support site (https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/security/secdc2567239/web), which mentions adding cards from a card issuer’s website, but it doesn’t provide details on the process. Could you please confirm if it's possible to add a card directly from a web app without using a mobile app? If so, could you guide me to the relevant documentation? Thanks in advance!

Apple Pay Merchant Token on Web
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?

~15s Delay in startSession
Hello, We are experiencing a consistent delay when initiating Apple Pay sessions using the https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/startSession endpoint. Below is a detailed overview of our setup and the issue. Setup Our web service is hosted in AWS and there is a proxy server between our web service and Apple servers. We are passing the correct domain in the initiativeContext field of the startSession request. The .well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association file is hosted on a different domain, which is also correctly configured and associated with our merchant ID in the Apple Developer portal. Observed Behavior When the same request is made from a local development environment, Apple responds immediately (under 1 second). When the request is made from our AWS-hosted service, Apple responds with a valid session, but only after a consistent ~15-second delay. The content and response are otherwise identical — only the timing differs. We would appreciate any insights or suggestions from others who have faced similar behavior or from the Apple Pay team. Thank you in advance!

Apple Pay JS API - applePayCapabilities no longer working
We’ve noticed that the ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities() check has stopped working correctly in Safari over the past couple of days. Behavior observed: 1.) In Safari Private Window, paymentCredentialStatus behaves as expected and case 1 is triggered. 2.) In a normal Safari window, it always triggers case 3 (paymentCredentialsUnavailable), even when the user has active cards provisioned in Wallet. We tested across multiple devices, and the behavior is consistent. if (window.ApplePaySession) { var merchantIdentifier = 'YOUR MERCHANT IDENTIFIER'; var promise = ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities(merchantIdentifier); promise.then(function(capabilities) { switch (capabilities.paymentCredentialStatus) { case "paymentCredentialsAvailable": // Show Apple Pay button as primary option case "paymentCredentialStatusUnknown": // Offer Apple Pay case "paymentCredentialsUnavailable": // Consider showing Apple Pay button case "applePayUnsupported": // Don’t show Apple Pay button } }) } This used to work fine until a few days ago, but now the capability check in non-private Safari windows always indicates unavailable, even with valid active cards. Has anyone else faced this issue recently? Could this be a Safari regression or a change on Apple’s side? Thanks in advance!

Apple Pay Sandbox: onpaymentauthorized not fired after successful authentication (started March 6)
Hello, We are encountering an issue with Apple Pay on the Web in the sandbox environment where payments cannot be completed because the onpaymentauthorized event is not triggered. The same implementation was working normally until March 5, but the issue started occurring consistently from March 6 without any changes to our code, certificates, or merchant configuration. Environment Apple Pay on the Web (JavaScript) Safari (iOS / macOS) Apple Pay Sandbox Merchant domain verified Merchant validation succeeds Observed Flow The Apple Pay flow proceeds normally until authentication: User clicks the Apple Pay button ApplePaySession.begin() is called onvalidatemerchant fires Merchant validation request succeeds completeMerchantValidation() is called Apple Pay sheet is displayed User authenticates with Face ID / Touch ID onpaymentauthorized is never triggered Because this event never fires, the payment token is not returned and the payment cannot proceed. ApplePaySession Request { "countryCode": "JP", "currencyCode": "JPY", "merchantCapabilities": ["supports3DS"], "supportedNetworks": ["visa", "masterCard"], "total": { "label": "Test Payment", "type": "final", "amount": "100" } } Merchant Validation Merchant validation succeeds and returns a valid session from Apple. Relevant fields from the merchant session: merchantIdentifier: 35A786BE6AB4... domainName: secure.telecom-awstest.com displayName: ApplePay Additional Notes Apple Pay sheet appears normally Authentication completes successfully No JavaScript errors are logged onpaymentauthorized is never fired Issue occurs consistently in the sandbox environment Confirmed across multiple iOS versions Question Has anyone experienced a similar issue recently in the Apple Pay sandbox environment, or are there any known changes that could cause the onpaymentauthorized event not to fire after authentication? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Apple Pay on Google Chrome
Hi - I have a question. I am trying to understand when Apple Pay will be available on non-IOS desktop devices (specifically Google Chrome). I was hoping to understand better the process, specifically the following: How can I get the Apple Pay QR code installed on my desktop checkout page on Google Chrome? How long does this process usually take? If I work with Stripe, do I need to get approval from them to install the Apple QR code onto my Google Chrome checkout page? Is this readily available to all merchants (i.e., installing Apple Pay on Google Chrome)/ I have not seen this on any other checkout pages yet. Are there any examples you could point me to of merchants that have installed Apple Pay onto non-IOS desktop so I could trial the process (i.e., a list of existing merchants that have put the QR code onto their Google Chrome checkout pages)?

Domain Verification Failed for Apple Pay – Tried Everything
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?

Apple Pay Web: Multiple active PPCs for one Merchant ID?
Hi,
 We’re implementing Apple Pay on the Web for a multi-tenant platform via a PSP. The PSP operates multiple HSM/clusters and gave us multiple CSRs, asking us to register all.
Our understanding: a Merchant ID can hold several PPCs over time, but only one is active at once. Questions Is there any supported way to keep more than one PPC active simultaneously for the same Merchant ID? If not, what does Apple recommend for web-only, multi-tenant setups: a single MID with PSP-side decryption & sub-merchant separation, or separate MIDs per brand/region? Any official guidance on PPC rotation and handling many domains for Apple Pay on the Web? links to official docs or prior Apple responses would be appreciated.
