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."
Hi,
Somebody knows how to decode / decrypt emvData on Apple Pay e-commerce when paymentDataType=EMV?
Thanks.
Reference: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/passkit/payment-token-format-reference#Detailed-payment-data-keys-EMV
We are developing a native iOS financial application called Tradu: Stocks, Forex, and CFDs (Apple ID: 6473443264), which embeds a WKWebView to render all user-facing logic. All user interactions—including authentication with MFA—occur inside this WKWebView.
To access native functionality, we use postMessage() to communicate between the web and native layers. This approach has worked successfully for biometric authentication, for example.
We are currently integrating Apple Pay In-App Provisioning and have a few questions regarding compliance with the documentation provided by our Issuer Host (Modulr). In the document titled Getting Started with Apple Pay: In-App Provisioning, Verification, Security, and Wallet Extensions (Version 4.0, February 2023), all examples are based on a fully native application.
We’ve managed to integrate most of the In-App Provisioning flow via postMessage() up to the point of passing encryptedData to the Payment View.
Apple Pay button inside WKWebView
In Section 7: Frontend Overview, the user initiates the provisioning by tapping a native PKPaymentButton (SwiftUI example).
In our case, this button is rendered inside the WKWebView, styled according to the Apple Style Guide.
While the document references this approach as a “raw mark text supplement,” is this method acceptable and compliant with Apple’s UX and technical guidelines?
MFA requirement before provisioning
In Section 4: Security Guidelines, it is stated that the user must have passed MFA at least once before starting the provisioning flow.
In our implementation, users must complete MFA on every login (including on recognized devices) before the provisioning UI becomes available.
Even though this is not tied specifically to “unrecognized devices,” is our MFA requirement sufficient to satisfy Section 4.2?
Summary:
Is using a web-rendered Apple Pay button inside WKWebView (instead of a native PKPaymentButton) considered compliant?
Is our MFA enforcement model (required on every login) aligned with the security requirements outlined in Section 4.2 of the Apple Pay In-App Provisioning documentation?
Hi,
We're experiencing an issue with verifying our domain for Apple Pay on the web. It's currently stuck in the "Pending" state despite meeting the listed requirements. The domain in question has been verified once successfully but one month later when we renewed the SSL, we were unable to verify the domain again. Please note that the new certificate's CA chain has been changed.
A) The "apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt" file is publicly accessible at the following location:
/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association.txt
B) We've also ensured that the following IP ranges are whitelisted:
17.32.139.128/27
17.32.139.160/27
17.140.126.0/27
17.140.126.32/27
17.179.144.128/27
17.179.144.160/27
17.179.144.192/27
17.179.144.224/27
17.253.0.0/16
17.23.4.96/27
17.132.108.64/26
17.23.24.32/27
17.23.19.0/27
17.157.40.128/27
17.157.44.128/27
17.157.32.0/27
C) Our servers support TLS 1.2 already.
D) "ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256" cipher suite has been used, so we believe all necessary criteria are satisfied.
However, when we attempt to verify the domain, we receive the following error message:
"Domain verification failed. Review your TLS Certificate configuration to confirm that the certificate is accessible and a supported TLS Cipher Suite is used."
Could you please advise why the verification is failing, or let us know if there's anything we might have missed?
Best regards,
Mehdi
What am I missing in my checking for whether or not to offer Apple Pay on my website?
<script async crossorigin
src="https://applepay.cdn-apple.com/jsapi/v1.1.0/apple-pay-sdk.js"
></script>
...
<style>
apple-pay-button {
display: none;
}
</style>
...
<apple-pay-button buttonstyle="black" type="plain" locale="en-US" onclick="startApplePay('${APPLE_PAY_MERCHANT_ID}','${paymentForm.amount}');"></apple-pay-button>
So, the button is not displayed by default. I only change the style to displayed if:
window.onload = function() {
if (isApplePaySupported()) {
document.querySelector("apple-pay-button").style.display = "inline-block";
};
}
function isApplePaySupported() {
return (window.PaymentRequest &&
window.ApplePaySession &&
ApplePaySession.canMakePayments() &&
ApplePaySession.supportsVersion(applePayVersion));
}
Yet, once in a while a click comes through that tries to create a PaymentRequest with
const applePayMethod = {
"supportedMethods": "https://apple.com/apple-pay",
"data": {
"version": applePayVersion,
"merchantIdentifier": merchantIdentifier,
"merchantCapabilities": [
"supports3DS"
],
"supportedNetworks": [
"amex",
"discover",
"masterCard",
"visa"
],
"countryCode": "US"
}
};
and results in:
NotSupportedError, The payment method is not supported
What else might be "not supported" in the request for this particular user/device/wallet? In particular, that could be known immediately when the PaymentRequest is created, but before any payment instrument from the wallet is selected?
And, is there anything I could detect before showing the button?
Or, is it even possible for the button to be clicked by some kind of automation, even if it's not displayed?
On Applepay's docs it talks about the ability to do "flexible" payments and scheduling for future purchases. We need to be able to make only a single approval of an Apple payment for multiple submissions later on. Think, deferred payments at an arbitrary schedule without presenting the ApplePay dialog each and every time.
The docs suggest that may be possible, but are maddeningly vague on how to do that. Is it possible or not? Can we store an approved merchant's token for example and leverage that for future transactions?

Hello Apple Devs,
We’re currently trying to integrate Apple Pay on the web using Apple Pay JS. We've followed the official documentation closely, but we're running into a blocker during the merchantSession validation phase.
We successfully retrieved a merchantSession, which looks like this:
json
{
"displayName": "Our Name",
"domainName": "https://pay.ourdomain.co",
"epochTimestamp": ,
"expiresAt": ****************,
"merchantIdentifier": "",
"merchantSessionIdentifier": ",
"nonce": "",
"operationalAnalyticsIdentifier": our name "t:",
"pspId": "",
"retries": 0,
"signature": "*****************..."
}
Issue:
Shortly after initiating the session, we receive a cancel event with the following info:
ApplePayCancelEvent {
type: "cancel",
sessionError: {
code: "unknown",
info: {}
}
}
We're unsure what causes the cancellation. There are no clear error messages or hints in the logs to identify what went wrong.
What We’ve Checked:
The merchantSession is returned successfully from our backend.
The domainName matches our frontend domain (https://pay.durdomain.co).
The session hasn’t expired when tested.
We're using Apple Pay JS APIs as described in the documentation.
Help Needed:
What can trigger an ApplePayCancelEvent with an "unknown" error code?
Any insight or guidance would be deeply appreciated. Thanks in advance!
I'm successfully using Apple subscriptions in my app, but I'm encountering SKErrorCodeDomain error 18 when trying to apply a subscription offer.
I want apply offer code first time only for subscription. Below are details of what i set in appstore and what i have tested.
Subscription Offer Details
Offer Type: For the first month
Customer Eligibility: New, Existing, and Expired Subscribers
Code Status: Active
Offer Code Creation Steps:
App Store Connect → App → Subscription → Select Subscription Product → Offer Codes → Add → Add Custom Codes
Signature Generation for Promotional Offers
I'm following Apple's documentation to generate a signature:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/generating-a-signature-for-promotional-offers
I’ve constructed the payload as instructed:
appBundleId + '\u2063' + keyIdentifier + '\u2063' + productIdentifier + '\u2063' + offerIdentifier + '\u2063' + appAccountToken + '\u2063' + nonce + '\u2063' + timestamp
Keys and Identifiers
keyIdentifier, issuerId, and .p8 file are obtained from:
App Store Connect → Users and Access → Integrations → In-App Purchase
Test user created under:
App Store Connect → Users and Access → Sandbox → Test Accounts
Logged in with this account on the iPhone
What I’ve Tried
Verified all values used in the payload are correct
Tried both seconds and milliseconds for the timestamp (as per documentation, it should be in milliseconds)
Tried setting appAccountToken to:
a valid UUID
an empty string
not setting it at all
Used Apple’s sample code to generate a signature: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/generating-a-promotional-offer-signature-on-the-server
Verified the generated signature locally, and it validated successfully: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/generating-a-signature-for-promotional-offers#Validate-locally-and-encode-the-signature
Apple’s sample code to generate a signature

// Get the PEM-formatted private key string associated with the Key ID.
// const keyString = getKeyStringForID(keyID);
// Read the .p8 file
const keyString = fs.readFileSync('./SubscriptionKey_47J5826J8W.p8', 'utf8');
// Create an Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) object using the private key.
const key = new ECKey(keyString, 'pem');
// Set up the cryptographic format used to sign the key with the SHA-256 hashing algorithm.
const cryptoSign = key.createSign('SHA256');
// Add the payload string to sign.
cryptoSign.update(payload);
/*
The Node.js crypto library creates a DER-formatted binary value signature,
and then base-64 encodes it to create the string that you will use in StoreKit.
*/
const signature = cryptoSign.sign('base64');
/*
Check that the signature passes verification by using the ec-key library.
The verification process is similar to creating the signature, except it uses 'createVerify'
instead of 'createSign', and after updating it with the payload, it uses `verify` to pass in
the signature and encoding, instead of `sign` to get the signature.
This step is not required, but it's useful to check when implementing your signature code.
This helps debug issues with signing before sending transactions to Apple.
If verification succeeds, the next recommended testing step is attempting a purchase
in the Sandbox environment.

We have a checkout page on which clients can configure the providers we've integrated with for each currency.
One such provider is Stripe, with which we have already integrated ApplePay and host a merchant domain association file.
Now, we're getting requests to support ApplePay with other providers.
The issue is that we can't tell Apple to use a different path to domain association file for domain verification.
And, replacing the existing domain association file seems like a hack, since I believe it's needed for domain re-verification.
We're thinking of using subdomains for serving the domain association files for different providers.
But, we have some questions on how ApplePay domain verification works to understand how we can solve our problem.
Firstly, can we use subdomains for individual domain verification? If we already have example.com verified with Stripe, can we serve the domain association file for the other provider with provider.example.com and have the verification work?
Secondly, let's say our domain is example.com, and we can use provider.example.com to serve the domain association file and verify the domain. Then on example.com/checkout, will using an iframe with provider.example.com/applepay to host the ApplePay button work?
This thread suggests otherwise, but we want to confirm.
Lastly, is the only way to make an ApplePay payment for provider.example.com to use that subdomain? So redirecting to provider.example.com/applepay would work?
Thanks for your help!
Hello,
We are experiencing an issue with Apple Pay integration in our application. We are using WKWebView to handle various payment methods, but we are unable to complete payments via Apple Pay.
Upon debugging the WKWebView, we received the following error message: "400 No required SSL certificate was sent" when attempting to process the payment.
Currently, we are using a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate. Could you please confirm whether this certificate is suitable for Apple Pay, or if we should be using a different SSL certificate?

Tap to Pay on iPhone
Hi everyone,
I’m encountering a strange issue with Apple Pay in our React Native iOS app using the Stripe React Native SDK.
Summary of the Problem:
• Apple Pay shows up as an available payment method inside the Stripe Payment Sheet.
• When I tap Apple Pay, the Apple Pay sheet opens normally.
• After confirming payment, the Apple Pay sheet immediately closes, and nothing happens.
• No payment is created and no request reaches Stripe’s servers.
On Stripe Dashboard the PaymentIntent remains incomplete, with no errors, which means the failure happens before Stripe receives anything.
Environment
• React Native with @stripe/stripe-react-native
• StripeProvider configured with:
<StripeProvider
publishableKey={...}
merchantIdentifier="merchant.com.app.venga"
stripeAccountId={...}
urlScheme="venga"
>
Apple Pay works on our web checkout with the same merchant identifier.
We have verified all of the required Apple Pay setup:
• Merchant ID exists, active, and matches exactly.
• Merchant ID added to the iOS app target in Xcode → Signing & Capabilities.
• Apple Pay capability enabled.
• Merchant domain is verified (web checkout works).
• Apple Pay certificate and merchant certificate are valid.
• Stripe publishable key and merchantIdentifier are correct.
• Stripe SDK correctly initialized.
• Device region supports Apple Pay.
Extra Observations:
• The PaymentIntent’s allowed_payment_methods includes "card" and Apple Pay does appear in the payment sheet.
• But after tapping Pay → the Apple Pay sheet closes instantly.
• There is no callback with an error, and nothing appears in Stripe logs.
• We are testing in Sweden. As far as I know Apple Pay should work fine here.
Questions:
What could cause the Apple Pay sheet to dismiss instantly after attempting a payment?
Could this be caused by a merchant ID mismatch—even if Apple Pay appears in the sheet?
Is there any Apple-device-level requirement (region, wallet config, card type) that could cause this silent failure?
Is there a way to get more detailed logs when Apple Pay closes before Stripe receives anything?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
We have an Apple Pay account and have successfully created and verified the payment processing certificate in our Apple Developer account.
When initiating an Apple Pay payment, the Apple session is created successfully with the correct data return from api , but it is not accepted with the error: “Payment not completed.”
The issue occurs even though the merchant validation step works without errors.
Our websites where this is happening are:
https://magicdeliver.com/
https://www.pulsarmodular.com/
Could you please help us identify the cause of the issue and guide us on resolving it?
We're working on in-app provisioning for wallet access passes. When testing the in-app provisioning on a sandbox account, I get an error saying software update required. Please advise.
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?
Team,
We are currently checking out on Apple Pay using ALL and MRU as currencies. We have authorized the payment via Touch ID; however, we are not receiving the onPaymentAuthorized event.
Could you please confirm if Apple Pay supports ALL and MRU currencies? We have confirmed that it works with other currencies.
Thank you!

I am facing an issue with Apple Pay js while doing the integration
we are using reference
https://applepaydemo.apple.com/apple-pay-js-api
In this I can generate the merchantSession correctly
But when I pass that merchantSession in
session.completeMerchantValidation(merchantValidation) as per documentation
It is getting failed and also no appropriate error is being shown in the console
Apple Sandbox is not available in India, also Apple Pay itself is not supported by Indian Banks. How can I still test using Apple Pay sandbox in India? I am trying to add test cards on my iPhone and it fails to add it. It tries to connect to Issuer, which it should not for sandbox Apple Id.
Can anyone help how to achieve this?
Hello,
we develop a banking app and have successfully provisioned our cards (they are in the Wallet). But the method passes() of PassKit library always returns empty list.
What may be the reason of this?
Thanks.

During our Apple Pay integration testing, we encountered an issue that we're unsure how to resolve. Below are the steps we followed:
Created an Apple Pay sandbox test account for Raul and added a test card, following the documentation here: https://developer.apple.com/apple-pay/sandbox-testing/
Opened the Golfmanager platform and initiated a booking.
For payment, selected Apple Pay as the method.
Raul clicked the Apple Pay button on the Golfmanager UI.
He scanned the QR code using his iPhone, logged in with the test account.
Apple Pay began validating our merchant identity and retrieved the wallet token to proceed with payment.
The Apple Pay payment sheet appeared on Raul's iPhone, showing the card details and the amount requested by Golfmanager.
Suddenly, the Apple Pay sheet closed unexpectedly, and we have no insight into what went wrong or what might be missing on our end.
