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.

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.

We have updated the PNO metadata to include the associatedApplicationIdentifiers for our wallet extensions and the issuer app. While we are able to successfully provision the card to Apple Wallet via pull provisioning, we are unable to retrieve the payment passes that have already been provisioned. How can we address this issue?
let passLibrary = PKPassLibrary()
let paymentPassLibrary = self.passLibrary.passes(of: .secureElement)
paymentPassLibrary is an empty array even though we have passes provisioned.
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.
Is there a way to make a subscription's auto-renewal fail in sandbox environment?
Currently, I see no such options (screenshot)

I have a question regarding the file apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt.
I understand that this file is used during API access for Apple Pay Web payments. However, is it necessary for our company to access this file during the payment process?
Also, this domain validation file is expected to be placed in the publicly accessible “.well-known” folder on our web server. Is it acceptable for this file to remain readable by third parties on the Internet, including Apple’s servers, without posing any security risks?
Since this file is generated during domain registration on the Apple Developer site and is unique to our domain, we believe there should be no security concerns even if accessed by third parties. However, are there any specific security requirements for this domain validation file?
Please note that the domain validation has already been successfully completed.
We appreciate your time and look forward to your guidance.
Best regards,
we are currently using the requestAutomaticPassPresentationSuppression API in my app. to prevent the Wallet interface from appearing when an NFC/RF reader is detected during active app usage.
Recently, a new transit card supporting Express Mode (T-money Transit Card) was released in Korea, and we are seeing an increasing number of users enabling Express Mode.
However, this has introduced an issue where users are unable to use the BLE-based functionality we provide via our widget. Specifically, when the user taps our widget, it triggers a BLE signal broadcast for approximately 10 seconds. In this scenario, when the user brings their iPhone close to our reader, Express Mode is activated before the BLE interaction can be established. This prevents the BLE signal from being successfully received and processed.
We would like to ask:
Is it possible to suppress Express Mode behavior (similar to requestAutomaticPassPresentationSuppression) even when the app is launched via a widget interaction?
Alternatively, is there any way to delay or defer Express Mode activation temporarily when launching from a widget or during BLE communication?
We would appreciate any guidance or best practices you can share regarding this scenario.
Thank you.

Hello,
I am setting up a feature for my company's banking app that allows users to add their payment/debit card they have with us to the Apple Wallet on their device. We have the in-app provisioning entitlement setup and configured in the app and configured with our banking partner/TSP. We are able to manually provision production environment cards via the Wallet app.
I am using test card data from my TSP. I send them the two certificates, nonce, and nonce signature data and am given activationData, encryptedPassData, and an ephmeralPublicKey that we then set on an instance of PKAddPaymentPassRequest. We call the handler on the delegate method that is called with that request object and get an error:
The operation couldn’t be completed. (PKPassKitErrorDomain error 2.)
Looking at the PassKit library shows this is PKUnsupportedVersionError - Unsupported pass version.
Our TSP hasn't been super helpful in troubleshooting this issue and just said we should contact Apple as it is an Apple error.
I am trying to figure out if the issue is with how we are implementing the feature or with the test data itself given to us.

I'm encountering an issue with Apple Pay on both Wallet and the Watch app where the app name is not showing up on the back of the payment card(Card details).
The pass was successfully provisioned, and everything seems to be working, but the expected app name or brand isn't displayed, and instead, I see the generic "Something went wrong. Try again Later" message.
Do we need to configure something to get this displayed in Wallet app?
Hello,
I am currently testing an Adyen integration with Sylius and need to verify Apple Pay with Cartes Bancaires in the sandbox environment. Could you please advise how Cartes Bancaires can be tested in Apple Pay Sandbox (e.g. cards details)?
Thank you in advance for your guidance.

We are observing unexpected behavior in Apple Wallet for transactions processed via an online delivery platform. Here is the specific flow:
Initial Authorization: The original order was placed for $22.30.
Order Amendment: The user added an item 10 minutes later for $6.20, bringing the total to $28.50.
The Issue:
Apple Wallet only displays the $6.20 transaction. The initial $22.30 amount is not visible in the transaction list.
Technical Verification:
We confirmed that both backend authorization messages for the original amount and the add-on were approved.
We verified that the final settlement amounts correctly reflect the sum of both charges ($28.50).
We have confirmed the transaction lifecycle completed successfully on our end.
Despite this, the customer only sees the $6.20 entry in their Wallet history, which creates confusion as it doesn't reflect the total spent.
Has anyone encountered this sync issue between settlement totals and Wallet display, or is there a specific way we should be linking these related authorizations? Thanks!
We are implementing Apple Pay In-App Provisioning in our issuer iOS application and are encountering a HTTP 500 error returned from Apple servers during the provisioning flow.
The issue occurs after generating the encrypted payload and attempting to complete the provisioning process. The Apple service responds with 500 Internal Server Error, preventing the card from being added to Wallet.
We would appreciate assistance identifying whether this is caused by:
• a payload formatting issue,
• cryptographic material mismatch,
• entitlement / configuration issue,
• or a server-side issue.
Environment
Platform
• iOS: 26.3.1
• Device: iPhone 13 mini
• Xcode: 26.3.1
Apple Pay configuration
• In-App Provisioning entitlement enabled
• Issuer app authorized by Apple for provisioning
• Payment Network: Mastercard
• Token Service Provider (TSP): MDES
Testing environment
• Production
• App distribution method: TestFlight
Provisioning Flow Overview
Our implementation follows the standard Apple Pay In-App Provisioning flow:
1. User taps Add to Apple Wallet in issuer app.
2. App presents PKAddPaymentPassViewController.
3. App receives:
• Apple public certificates
• nonce
• nonceSignature
4. Issuer backend generates:
• encryptedPassData
• activationData
• ephemeralPublicKey
5. These values are returned to the app.
6. App constructs PKAddPaymentPassRequest.
7. Wallet attempts provisioning.
At this point the request fails and Apple servers return HTTP 500. We see this in the system console, with the phone having Wallet debugging profile installed.
Checklist – Common Issues Verified
Based on the Apple Pay In-App Provisioning demo guidance, we verified the following configuration items.
Entitlements
• com.apple.developer.payment-pass-provisioning enabled
• Apple Pay capability enabled in Xcode
• Correct Team ID and bundle configuration
App configuration
• PKAddPaymentPassViewController used for provisioning
• PKAddPaymentPassViewControllerDelegate implemented
• generateRequestWithCertificateChain implemented correctly
Cryptographic data
• encryptedPassData
• activationData
• ephemeralPublicKey
All values are generated by our issuer backend and returned to the app

Hi, we are implementing ID&V and there is a requirement regarding the flow for Apple Pay.
In order to clarify the case I will describe the use case scenario or steps to reproduce first:
add a card to the iPhone wallet app (yellow path verification required). Do not complete the ID&V process.
add a card to the Watch via the Wallet inside the iPhone Watch app (yellow path verification required). Same as before, do not complete the ID&V
complete ID&V process using the Issuer App either from iPhone or Watch.
the Issuer app receives the application:openURL:options: callback on its AppDelegate. In the options dictionary, we can not see the UIApplicationOpenURLOptionsSourceApplicationKey populated (it is nil).
At this moment, for the card we are adding there are now two tokens, both to be verified via ID&V process. One is on the iPhone and one is on the Apple Watch associated with the same iPhone.
The url received at step 4 contains the serial number which identifies the digitized card and matches with both the tokens in the iPhone and in the Apple Watch.
We need something to detect programmatically if the digitization process started from the iPhone Wallet app or from the wallet inside the Watch app.
Could you please help us to identify how we could discriminate if the ID&V process has been started for the iPhone token or for the Apple Watch token?
Thanks
When accessing https://applepaydemo.apple.com/payment-request-api, the "Approve with Side Button" prompt is displayed, but it does not appear when using our test domain.
I implemented the Payment Request API based on the sample source code from the following URL. On an iPhone device, the Apple Pay payment screen is displayed, but the "Approve with Side Button" icon below the amount does not appear, and instead a spinning loading icon is shown continuously.
Could you please help identify the cause?

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 everyone,
We've encountered a blocking issue while integrating Apple Pay on the Web within a Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC) environment. The session fails immediately after a successful user authentication.
Problem Summary:
After a user authenticates a payment with Touch ID or Face ID, the Apple Pay sheet showing error "Payment not completed" message. The core of the issue is that the onpaymentauthorized event handler is never invoked in our client-side JavaScript. As a result, the corresponding server-side SFCC paymentAuthorized hooks are never triggered, and we cannot obtain a payment token to complete the transaction. Also, No console logs are observed.
Observed Flow of Events:
The ApplePaySession proceeds correctly through the initial callbacks. We have verified through server-side logs that the corresponding SFCC platform hooks (getRequest, prepareBasket, shippingContactSelected, shippingMethodSelected) fire and complete successfully. The payment sheet correctly updates with shipping costs and the final transaction amount.
Failure Point & Steps to Reproduce:
A user initiates an Apple Pay transaction within our SFCC site.
They select their shipping contact and method. The payment sheet updates the total amount.
The user taps the "Pay" button and authenticates successfully via Touch ID / Face ID.
Failure: The sheet immediately displays "Payment not completed" error.
The onpaymentauthorized event is never fired on the client, and no paymentAuthorized calls reach our SFCC backend.
We have confirmed this behavior is reproducible even when using the standard plugin_applepay provided by SFCC. There are no associated errors in the browser's JavaScript console or any server-side logs, as the process appears to fail within the native Apple Pay session before control is returned to our client-side code.
Our Questions:
Given this is occurring within an SFCC integration, we are trying to understand what could cause the session to terminate at this specific point.
Are there internal validation checks that occur after successful user authentication but before the onpaymentauthorized event is dispatched?
What configuration issues (e.g., in the ApplePayPaymentRequest, merchant identity certificate, etc.) are known to cause a failure at this exact step, especially within a platform integration like SFCC?
Is there any additional client-side logging or debugging we can enable to get more insight into the internal state of the ApplePaySession?
Any guidance from Apple engineers or other developers who have integrated Apple Pay with SFCC would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I am working on implementing merchant token notifications. When calling this endpoint https://developer.apple.com/documentation/merchanttokennotificationservices/merchant-token-event-retrieval, the result contains a CardMetadata object with an expirationDate field (see https://developer.apple.com/documentation/merchanttokennotificationservices/cardmetadata). What is the format of this field? The spec only mentions that it has a maximum length of 8 characters.
I have some questions related to MPAN.
What is the format of an MPAN?
Is it the same as DPAN?
Is it PAN preserving format?
Is a Cryptogram required and if yes, what kind of cryptogram?
Is it the same format as DPAN?
Thanks in Advance!
