Apple Pay JS - completeMerchantValidation not triggered
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, "expiresAt":1739283573502, "merchantSessionIdentifier":"SSH108C7ED6746A48E38EA8D253D33CCAA5_916523AAED1343F5BC5815E12BEE9250AFFDC1A17C46B0DE5A943F0F94927C24", "nonce":"150de193", "merchantIdentifier":"11CA4E31493E748848A91A0DAB1685A8417C41B62B9863EF59A618B91239471A", "domainName":"lesnumeriques-bonsdachat.htmal1.com", "displayName":"Les Numériques", "signature":"308006092a86...779cd643c000000000000", // long string "operationalAnalyticsIdentifier":"Les Numériques:11CA4E31493E748848A91A0DAB1685A8417C41B62B9863EF59A618B91239471A", "retries":0, "pspId":"11CA4E31493E748848A91A0DAB1685A8417C41B62B9863EF59A618B91239471A" } What could I do wrong and how could I fix it please ?

Obtaining documentation for In-App Provisioning after receiving entitlement
We are an issuer attempting to implement In-App Provisioning of Payment Cards leveraging Mastercard MDES and have successfully obtained our entitlement from Apple, but have not received the documentation titled "Getting Started with Apple Pay In-App Provisioning, Verification & Security". The latest copy I have found has been via Scribd for a version 3.0 from June 2020. I've tried contacting Apple Support and the In-App Provisioning Entitlements group but have had no luck. Thank you!

Issue with the ApplePay SSL server certificate
Hi support, Since June 26th 2025 we are experiencing an issue with the ApplePay SSL server certificate installed on our servers in Production environment. We are facing an exception error during the initializing of a payment session while calling the url: https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/startSession The exception is Untrusted Server Certificate Chain: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertificateException: Untrusted Server Certificate Chain       at sun.security.ssl.Alerts.getSSLException(Alerts.java:192)       at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.fatal(SSLSocketImpl.java:1915)       at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker.fatalSE(Handshaker.java:306)       at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker.fatalSE(Handshaker.java:300)       at sun.security.ssl.ClientHandshaker.serverCertificate(ClientHandshaker.java:1577)       at sun.security.ssl.ClientHandshaker.processMessage(ClientHandshaker.java:213)       at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker.processLoop(Handshaker.java:1010)       at sun.security.ssl.Handshaker.process_record(Handshaker.java:946)       at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.readRecord(SSLSocketImpl.java:1034)       at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.performInitialHandshake(SSLSocketImpl.java:1343)       at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.startHandshake(SSLSocketImpl.java:1370)       at sun.security.ssl.SSLSocketImpl.startHandshake(SSLSocketImpl.java:1354) It seems that the issue occurs randomly: we are experiencing this exception on most of our payment transactions, but there are some cases of users that have correctly paid on our site using this method and in those cases this error did not appear. We installed the new certificate on our servers on July 3rd 2025 and renewed on Aug 7th 2025. The new certificate validity is: Not Before: Aug 6 18:43:52 2025 GMT Not After : Nov 4 18:08:57 2025 GMT I must specify that this issue is blocking the correct placement of AppleyPay orders of our customers. Can you please help us find the problem and a possible solution?

Inquiry regarding the domain, when the two companies merge
'Company A' is scheduled to merge with its parent company, 'Company B'. Both A and B have Apple accounts. A's account has one domain registered for Apple Pay integration, while Account B has no domain registered. We attempted to register A’s domain under B’s account. However, the notification 'Requested domain name has been verified previously.' appeared, and we could not complete the registration. Please confirm whether it is correct that a domain already registered under Account A cannot be registered again under Account B. If we cannot register same domain in two accounts, we believe that the domain registered under A's account must be deleted first and then registered under B's account. In that case, will payments become unavailable immediately upon deletion of the domain, or will payments still be possible for a certain period of time after deletion? In our testing, we found that payments were not blocked immediately, but we would like to confirm further. We are concerned about the possibility of transaction failures during the short period between deleting the domain from A's Account and registering it under B's Account.

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!

Automation on apple pay certificates
Hi! I am working on automating the Apple Pay integration process in our CI/CD pipeline and would like to confirm whether a fully automated setup is currently possible for our preproduction environment. Right now, our process is as follows: A certificate is generated for the root domain and for each individual merchant subdomain. Both certificates are manually uploaded to our preproduction servers to test and verified via HTTP. We’d like to automate this flow in GitLab CI, mainly the generation of the necessary certificates programmatically or via API. However, from my research, it seems that Apple does not currently provide an API or any support to automate this task, but I’d like to confirm this directly with you. Is there any official support or workaround for this kind of automation? If not, do you have any plans to provide it in the future? Thanks in advance for your help.

Apple Pay Merchant Identity Certificate - renewal problems
We are having trouble trying to renew our Apple Pay Merchant Identity Certificate. We can create the CSR file and add to the developer portal. We then convert this to a .pem and then a .p12. When we test the certificate in Postman however, we see the following error: "statusMessage": "Payment Services Exception pspId=xxxx unauthorized to process transactions on behalf of merchantId=xxxx reason=xxxx is not a registered merchant in WWDR and isn't properly authorized via Mass Enablement, either.", "statusCode": "417" We are sending the following POST request to 'https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession': {"merchantIdentifier": "merchant.com.xxxx.applepaytest", "domainName": "beta-xxxx.com", "displayName": "beta-xxxx.com"} Anyone got any ideas what the issue may be? In the meantime I will look at completing our domain verification as that is also due soon and we thought it may possibly have something to do with the certificate issues we are seeing.

Payment Services Exception Unauthorized
We’re attempting to call the Apple Pay Web Merchant Registration API using our Platform Integrator flow and consistently receive 401 Unauthorized, despite successful TLS/mTLS. Details: Endpoint: https://apple-pay-gateway-cert.apple.com/paymentservices/registerMerchant (POST) Payload: { "domainNames": ["breakerfy.com"], "encryptTo": "platformintegrator.ai.packman", "partnerInternalMerchantIdentifier": "merchant.ai.packman.1", "partnerMerchantName": "breakerfy", "merchantUrl": "https://breakerfy.com" } Domain association: URL: https://breakerfy.com/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association What we tried: We created a Payment Platform Integrator ID (platformintegrator.ai.packman) We created a CertificateSigningRequest We used the certificate signing request to create an Apple Pay Platform Integrator Identity Certificate and downloaded the signed certificate. We exported the Private Key from keychain access in PKCS 12 format We converted both the private key and the signed certificate to PEM format We created a merchant id We used the converted keys to send requests to the API We received { "statusMessage": "Payment Services Exception Unauthorized", "statusCode": "401" } we also tried curl with the original p12 file and also had no luck. What could be the issue ?

Identifying Card Type (Credit/Debit) Before Transaction Initiation – Apple Pay
PLATFORM AND VERSION iOS Development environment: Xcode Version 16.2 (16C5032a), macOS 14.6.1 Run-time configuration: iOS 26 DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM We would like to seek clarification on how to determine whether a card used via Apple Pay is a credit or debit card before sending the transaction request. Currently, we can retrieve the card type information (credit/debit) from the Apple Pay response payload, but this is only available after the payment has been processed. However, we need to determine the card type in advance, as our system calculates and applies transaction fees based on the card type, which should be added to the total transaction amount before submission. Could you please advise if there is any parameter, API field, or pre-authorization mechanism available to identify the card type prior to initiating the transaction request? We would appreciate your guidance or any related documentation for implementing this. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Initiate Apple pay Payment from Apple pay Getting payload we can retrieve the card type information (credit/debit) from the Apple Pay response payload, but this is only available after the payment has been processed. We need to identify if there's any way to know the card user selected(whether it is credit/debit) before processing the payment.

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 Test Environment - The Right Way
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?

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?
