domainName missing from create payment sessions request in sandbox
We have been using ApplePay on the web for years, but we are running into a problem since today in sandbox where domainName is missing from the create payment sessions request. We haven't changed anything related to this request any time recently. Static payment sessions url being hit in sandbox: https://apple-pay-gateway-cert.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession request format: "merchantIdentifier": "merchant.com.identifier", "displayName": "Test Store", "initiative": "web", "initiativeContext": "test.example.com", "domainName": "test.example.com" response format: { "epochTimestamp": 1763533367972, "expiresAt": 1763536967972, "merchantSessionIdentifier": "<merchantSessionIdentifier>", "nonce": "<nonce>", "merchantIdentifier": "<merchantIdentifier>", "displayName": "Test Store", "signature": "<signature>", "initiative": "web", "initiativeContext": "test.example.com", "signedFields": [ "merchantIdentifier", "merchantSessionIdentifier", "initiative", "initiativeContext", "displayName", "nonce" ], "operationalAnalyticsIdentifier": "Test Store:<identifier>", "retries": 0, "pspId": "<pspId>" } Production create session request to https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession is behaving as expected, sending the following fields as response: epochTimestamp, expiresAt, merchantSessionIdentifier, nonce, merchantIdentifier, domainName, displayName, signature, operationalAnalyticsIdentifier, retries, pspId Claude seems to suggest this is a response when Messages for Business is enabled, but this ApplePay Payment Processing merchant is only configured for Apple Pay on the Web. Any ideas or pointers to check for? We are worried this will spill over in production as well, which will break our ApplePay integration. Thanks in advance!

SFCC Integration: onpaymentauthorized Not Firing After Touch ID Authentication (Apple Pay on the Web)
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

App ID Configuration - Capabilities state inconsistency
Hello, I am experiencing an issue with the Apple Pay capability on my App ID. I have created a Merchant ID. I enabled Apple Pay in the App ID configuration and linked it to the merchant. However, sometimes when I revisit the App ID in the Apple Developer portal, the Apple Pay capability appears disabled, even though I saved it. This happens intermittently; at some times the capability is correctly shown as enabled, and other times it disappears. Context: I am using Expo Managed Workflow with EAS Build for iOS. The issue prevents the provisioning profile from including Apple Pay, which causes Stripe isPlatformPaySupported function to return false on ios devices. Attached: Screenshots of the App ID page showing Apple Pay enabled and disabled. Could you please advise why the capability is not being consistently saved, and how to ensure it stays enabled? Thank you,

Wallet Extension show tips "Cannot Add Card"
When integrating the Wallet Extension, after clicking my app icon from the "From Apps on Your iPhone" list, I encountered the message: "Cannot Add Card. '***' is not responding. Wait a few minutes and try again. If the problem continues, contact the card issuer's customer service" instead of the configured login page appearing as expected. What could be causing this issue, and how should I resolve it?

In-App Provisioning Error
We have implemented In-App Provisioning, but when I start the tokenization process, I receive an error before the terms and conditions. We are testing with a version of the app on TestFlight.

Apple Pay Is Not Available in "
We are encountering an issue where Apple Pay shows an unexpected popup with a message and an "OK" button when confirming a payment (after double-tapping the power button). This issue began appearing last week without any changes to the codebase or configurations. Steps to Reproduce: Open the app and initiate an Apple Pay payment. Add a valid card if not already present. Confirm the payment using the side button (double-tap). Instead of completing the transaction, a popup appears with a generic message and an "OK" button. Expected Behavior: Apple Pay should process the payment and provide a confirmation or error based on the transaction status. Actual Behavior: A popup appears with a generic title and an “OK” button. The transaction is not processed. Environment Details: Platform: iOS Apple Pay integration has been functioning correctly for years No recent updates to Apple Pay-related code or configuration Configurations Checked: App Identifier is correctly set with the bundle ID Apple Pay Payment Processing is enabled in the App ID configuration Correct Merchant ID is selected and matches in Xcode capabilities *.entitlements file contains correct Apple Pay entitlement Payment Processing Certificates are valid and in place Additional Notes: The issue appeared suddenly without any modifications to the app. We suspect it may be due to external changes (e.g., Apple system update or merchant validation issue). Please advise on any further steps we can take to diagnose or resolve this issue.

Merchant domain verification
Hello, I'm experiencing an irregular issue with Apple Pay merchant domain verification. As you know, Apple requires domain verification every two months to maintain Apple Pay functionality. The problem is that while the verification sometimes happens automatically without any issues, other times it fails to complete, even though the required file "apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt" is correctly available on our server. When automatic verification fails, the Apple Pay service becomes non-functional on our website, forcing us to perform a manual verification to restore the pending service. Is it normal to encounter such inconsistent automatic verification processes? What could be causing these intermittent verification failures, whereas manual verification always succeed? suggesting this might not be related to IP address restrictions described on the Apple documentation. Thank you in advance,

Sandbox Testing
Hi, I set up a Sandbox Tester account in my company’s Apple Developer Program and signed in on my iPhone under Settings → App Store → Sandbox Account. When I go to Wallet → Add, I only see options for Credit or Debit Card or Travel Card. The option to add an Apple Pay Sandbox Card is missing, and when I try entering the test card numbers from Apple’s documentation (developer.apple.com/apple-pay/sandbox-testing), the card is not valid. Has anyone experienced this and found a solution? Thanks! PS: I can't post this to Wallet Category, I keep getting error that it contains sensitive text.

Implementing multiple payment gateways on same domain
Hi Everyone, My team is working on an online marketplace for FMBs in Saudi Arabia (with a plan to expand to other markets later). We are currently working on integrating multiple payment gateways with embedded Apple Pay support into our platform. We’ve encountered an issue with the apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association file. Based on advice from one of our payment partners, we've ensured that the domain association file is uploaded in the correct format. This works successfully with our first payment gateway. However, for the additional payment gateways we are integrating, we would also like to enable Apple Pay with embedded support. The challenge is that each payment gateway requires its own domain verification, but the verification file uses the same file name. This prevents us from supporting multiple gateways on the same domain. Has anyone in the house been able to implement a similar solution, or know how we can best implement this? Please, I'll appreciate advise on how we can configure Apple Pay domain verification to support multiple payment gateways on the same domain? Any specific guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated. Best regards,

Apple Pay Merchant Validation TLS Error
Hello, Please help. We have been experiencing what appears to be a TLS handshake error in our Apple Pay merchant validation requests (2-way TLS) since June 25, 2025. We are aware of the encryption algorithm changes made in February 2025, and our system was functioning correctly at that time. However, the error started occurring suddenly and only recently. Could you please clarify the following points? Have there been any changes to the TLS configuration (cipher suites, certificates, protocol versions, etc.) on the Apple Pay server side since June 2025? Have there been any updates to the specifications or recommended settings for merchant validation requests? Is there any way to contact Apple for technical support regarding this issue other than through the Developer Forums? Our Merchant Identity Certificate has already been renewed and is confirmed to be valid.

iOS 16 recurring payment configuration not reflecting in UI
We are integrating iOS 16 recurring payments in our app, everything works fine but we have a few questions Question 1 let recurringPaymentRequest = PKRecurringPaymentRequest(         paymentDescription: "Pro Membership",         regularBilling: regularBilling,         managementURL: url       ) we assume managementURL is supposed to come in the user's wallet where he/she can tap to change the recurring payment option to our backend, but in the wallet, the transaction appears without this URL and have no indication that it is a recurring payment, Can someone guide what we missed Question 2 For apps that only have apple pay on mobile, managementURL can open the app as a deep link from the Wallet app and the user can update or delete the payment method for the automatic reload payment from the app directly, Question 3 For cancellation, the recurring payment app should have some UI where the user can tap which hit our backend and remove the apple pay merchant token from our system and apply cancellation business logic, no apple API involves in the cancellation of recurring payment

Assistance with Adding Subdomain to Apple Sandbox Domain List
Hi team, I'm currently trying to add a specific subdomain (with a path) to Apple's Sandbox domain list, but it seems Apple only allows the main domain to be entered. Due to strict client security policies, we aren't allowed to use just the main domain, which is creating a roadblock in our implementation. Is there any way to add a full subdomain or URL path to the Sandbox configuration? I'm happy to join a call to explain the scenario further if that would help. Thanks in advance for your support!

The purchaseDate timestamp on Apple's renewal orders is always 8 hours later than the time the notification is received.
Hello everyone. I encountered a problem when integrating Apple Pay. I obtained all the renewal orders through the Apple interface, and their purchaseDate is 8 hours later than the actual payment time. Why is this happening? According to the documentation, the purchaseDate value provided by Apple is a millisecond timestamp that represents the actual payment time of the user, so theoretically there shouldn’t be any timezone issues. This works well in client-initiated subscriptions, but in renewal scenarios, the purchaseDate becomes unreliable. Could this be due to some configuration in the configuration center? For example, I actually received an Apple notification at 1746686911000 (2025-05-08 06:48:31 Etc/GMT). However, the data returned by the Apple interface is as shown below: { "appAccountToken": "xxxx", "bundleId": "xxxx", "currency": "GBP", "environment": "Production", "expiresDate": 1762616831000, "inAppOwnershipType": "PURCHASED", "isUpgraded": false, "offerDiscountType": "", "offerIdentifier": "", "offerType": 0, "originalPurchaseDate": 1746456432000, "originalTransactionId": "320002311698411", "price": 39990, "productId": "xxxx", "purchaseDate": 1746715631000, "quantity": 1, "revocationDate": 0, "revocationReason": 0, "signedDate": 1746687092825, "storefront": "GBR", "storefrontId": "xxxx", "subscriptionGroupIdentifier": "xxxx", "transactionId": "320002315815857", "transactionReason": "RENEWAL", "type": "Auto-Renewable Subscription", "webOrderLineItemId": "320001062124562" } You can see that the purchaseDate is 1746715631000 (2025-05-08 14:48:31 Etc/GMT), which is even later than the current time. Can someone explain this behavior that is inconsistent with the documentation, or did I do something wrong? I would be very grateful for any help anyone can provide.
