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.

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.

Can i, personally, create .pkpass for other companies using my apple developer ID?
In order to create .pkpass, I need to create passTypIdentifier and teamIdentifier using apple developer ID
Is it okay to create those two identifiers and create coupons or membership cards for other companies?
I just wonder if it is against the law or developer guide.

Hello,
I have had a problem with Transaction shortcut automation since last month, the automation does not work anymore.
Whenever a transaction is done, I tap in the notification to run the automation but always gives the error "Automation failed".
I can confirm the automation worked last month but suddenly it is not working anymore. Below is the screenshort of the error and the other image is how it appeared in numbers when running the automation.
As you can see, in Jan 8th worked fine (that is why the full name of the card appears). Actually, the other rows are from another shortcut that I have.
I would really appreciate if anyone has any insights about that, or if this happened to you as well.
Thanks in advance! Arnold
I'm currently working on an AppIntent in my app to import Apple Pay transactions via Transaction triggers in Shortcuts. While I can access the transaction name with the following code:
@Parameter(title: "Transaction")
var transaction: String
I'm not sure how to retrieve the full details of the transaction, including:
Card or Pass
Merchant
Amount
Name
At the moment, transaction only provides the name as a string, but I need access to the complete transaction data. I know that by selecting specific fields like Amount, Merchant, etc., I can retrieve each piece of data individually, but it would be much easier and more user-friendly to simply retrieve the entire transaction object at once.
Has anyone successfully retrieved all details of an Apple Pay transaction in this context, and if so, could you share how to do so?

After opening the Apple Pay Popup and try to close the popup (without scanning the QR Code), the oncancel handler (accociated with the created session) doesn't fire.
Meanwhile if the merchant scanned the QR code and the UI of the popup changed, then cancel the popup manually (using close (X) button), it fires the session.oncancel event handler.
Here is applied setup:
const { ApplePaySession } = window;
if (!(ApplePaySession && ApplePaySession.canMakePayments())) {
return new Error('Apple Pay Session is not available');
}
const paymentCapabilities = await ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities(
applePaymentOptionsMetaData.merchantIdentifier,
);
if (paymentCapabilities.paymentCredentialStatus === 'applePayUnsupported') {
console.error('ApplePaySession is not supported.');
return;
}

}
};
session.onpaymentauthorized = async (event) => {

// This doesn't fire

Hello
My app has implementation of In App Provisioning which is working fine. We have now added Wallet Extensions to it, but my App is not shown in Apple Wallet "From apps on your iphone"
I have uploaded Feedback (FB16450547) at
https://feedbackassistant.apple.com/feedback/16450547
Kindly request for your advice
Hi, I'm developer in fintech company, we have setup process for onboarding merchants for our partner and processing payments with usage of Apple Pay API. Daily system is processing ca. 10k payments but every day ca. 100 of transactions are declined because of merchant validation error:
request to https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession (with all required parameters in body)
is returning response with status code 417
"statusMessage": "Payment Services Exception
merchantId={root merchant id}
unauthorized to process transactions on behalf of
merchantId={merchant id hash}
reason={merchant id hash} is
not a registered merchant in WWDR and isn't properly authorized via Mass
Enablement, either."
Issue impacts recurring merchants, most of their transactions are processed successfully but randomly some of them are failing with such reason. All prerequisites are met: merchant have deployed 'apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association' certificate, certificates are valid and not expired. Apple Support is not able to provide any information based on provided requests timestamps. We would to know what may be the reason just part of the requests are failing and what 417 error code means.

So we are developing an NFC reader for a client and one of the requirements was Apple ECP. We submitted a product plan and it was approved and we were given access to the specific documentation for ECP. We are looking to only use Loyalty passes via NFC. Not Apple Pay. We wish to develop passes that have NFC capability and apparently you need another approval for NFC Entitlement. Apple just denied our application. No reason given, just denied. How are we suppose to develop a solution when we can only do one side of the development? Also we are seeing VAS mentioned and believe we also need access to this documentation as well, but no idea where to request it. Nothing in our developer portal or wpc portal. Can someone from Apple please steer us in the right direction.
As we understand it we need:
Approved hardware product plan (which we have)
Access to ECP 2.0 documentation (which we have)
Access to VAS protocol documentation (we don't have)
NFC entitlement to be able to create NFC enabled passes.
Let me know what we need to do or if I am not understanding things correctly.
Thanks
The details provided in this documentation do not seem have instructions on configuring authentication for the user webhook. I plan on using oauth with the webhook, but I do not know where to provide the relevant issuer and client id/secret to the merchant token management service.
Hi team,
We were wondering what's the correct way of configuring a test environment with Apple Pay.
Not sure if this is explicitly mentioned in the documentation, but in order to avoid having the same certificates shared between test and production, should we have a different merchant identifier (and pair of certificates) for test purposes only?
The above is the main question. However, two follow up questions:
Do you know if payment processors usually allow the merchant ID to be configured, so that only payments generated with the prod certificates can be accepted?
Is there any risk of someone getting hold of the certificates generated for the test environment (which are usually less safe than production) and using that to process payments in production?

I am developing an app to add Discover cards to Apple Wallet. Unlike Visa, MasterCard, etc., Discover does not have APIs that return activationData, encryptedPassData and ephemeralPublicKey for a given card, so I have created a backend server to handle this. In my server, I am unsure how to generate the ephemeralPublicKey. Do I need to use the merchant certificate? If so, how do I use it to generate the ephemeralPublicKey?
I would appreciate it if someone could provide me with a step-by-step guide on how to generate ephemeralPublicKey for provisioning a card.
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,

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)) {

} 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);

}
}

Problem Description:
• We are noticing that in some orders, the in_app array is returned as empty. This causes difficulty in verifying the presence of in-app purchases.
• Our validation logic assumes that if in_app is empty, the order is invalid, but we would like clarification on whether this is correct or if such a scenario is normal under certain conditions.
Actions Taken:
• We have reviewed Apple’s documentation and other related resources, but no clear explanation is given about when in_app might be empty.
• Can we safely rely on an empty in_app array to consider the order invalid, or should we investigate further for potential issues like delays or errors during the verification process?
We would appreciate your guidance on how to handle such cases. Thank you for your support!
Hey everyone,
I wanted to check if anyone else has faced extreme delays when requesting access to Apple Pay Wallet APIs. It was Oct 11 2024 a year ago since we first applied to enable in-app provisioning for virtual cards in our app and we made 1% progress.
For context, we already got access from Google for Google Wallet—it was smooth, professional, and timely. But with Apple… it’s been nothing but an endless cycle of waiting.
We followed every step, submitted everything correctly, and even called Apple Developer Support multiple times. Their response? "We've escalated it." Again and again. But there’s no real progress. We’re rerouted, ignored, and left in limbo.
At this point, I don’t even know if anyone is actually reviewing these requests. If a business like ours—fully compliant and ready to integrate—can’t even get a response in 150 day, how is this process supposed to work?
I’m posting this here because I can’t be the only one. Has anyone else faced this? If you finally got access, how did you do it? Because right now, it feels like Apple Pay in-app provisioning is an impossible goal.
Hoping someone from Apple sees this and realizes how broken this process is. We’re just trying to innovate and offer Apple users a great experience—why is it so difficult?
Looking forward to hearing from anyone in the community who can help, Thanks! 🙏
Hello forum,
Hope all is great!
I have a shortcut automation which uses the transaction trigger. Since updating to ios 18 the transaction trigger does not work anymore.
Whenever a transaction is done, the “Running your automation” notification does not show up and the automation does not work.
To share with you the steps I’ve done so far:
1.Remove the automation and do it again
2.Remove the card from apple pay
3. Delete and install again the shortcut app
4. Turned on and off the phone
I can confirm the automation works on my other iPhone with the latest version of IOS 17.
Would really appreciate if anyone has any insights about that, or if this happened to you as well.
Cheers!

Hi team at Apple, here is a scenario we came across:
The order of priority of payment methods in Apple Wallet follows:
Credit
Debit
Apple Cash
Our app displays a payment sheet that excludes credit cards. Instead of a debit card, the default payment option shown to the user on the payment sheet is Apple Cash.
Is this a known issue or have we configured something wrong in our end?
I am trying to get a pass reader certified through the mFi / WPC certification process. The problem I have is that the Certifier app will not allow testing results to be submitted due to some missing information. I need support to discuss the missing information, but I have received no replies from the email provided for WPC Certification Representative.
Does anyone here know how to get support for the WPC Certification process?

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?

Hello Apple Developer Team/Community,
I am working on developing an Apple Wallet pass with NFC functionality for our electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. The goal is to enable a "tap-to-start charging" feature, providing a seamless and efficient experience for users. However, my request for an NFC certificate to enable this functionality has been rejected.
Here is a summary of my use case and actions taken so far:
1. Use Case:
The Wallet pass will allow users to initiate charging sessions by tapping their iPhones or Apple Watches on the EV charger.
This feature aims to simplify the process by eliminating the need for additional apps, physical cards, or manual inputs.
It enhances accessibility and aligns with Apple’s goals of providing users with secure and convenient solutions.
2. Steps Taken:
Submitted the NFC certificate request with a detailed explanation of the functionality.
Included diagrams and supporting documents demonstrating the workflow and system readiness.
Received a rejection without clear guidance on how to address the issue.
3. Technical Readiness:
Our backend is fully prepared to support NFC passes, including secure processing of tap events and payload encryption.
The Wallet pass has been configured to include the nfc field with the required encryptionPublicKey.
Request for Assistance:
Could you provide guidance on improving my application to meet Apple’s criteria for NFC certificates?
Are there specific requirements or examples of successful NFC-enabled Wallet pass applications that I can use as a reference?
If anyone has faced a similar rejection, what steps did you take to get approval?
Additional Information:
Use case: EV charging stations
NFC functionality: Tap-to-start charging session
Current implementation: Pass is functional without NFC but requires NFC for seamless operation.
Any advice or resources to help resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and support.
Best regards,
