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

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.

Format of expirationDate on Merchant Token Event
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.

500 Error on cards endpoint
Hello, we are experiencing issues with adding VISA cards via In-App Provisioning on iOS using PassKit. The same flow works correctly with Mastercard, but for VISA cards the Apple broker endpoint returns HTTP 500. Details Device: iPhone15,3 (iPhone 15 Pro), iOS 18.6.1 (22G90) Region: CZ App: [REDACTED] (version 0.4.3) Issuer ID: [REDACTED] Merchant ID and entitlements are configured and validated. SEID: [REDACTED] Request flow GET /broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/issuerProvisioningCertificates?encryptionVersion=EV_ECC_v2 Request ID: B61363A8-0BFF-4CD6-92BC-52C461DFFAAD Response: 200 OK Conversation ID: e12c64c9a0b54981adfad8d00800d836 Returned nonce: [REDACTED] Timestamp: 2025.08.21_14-01-46+0200 POST /broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards Request ID: F29B73CA-CDDE-4C0C-9F40-B87AE006FDDD Payload fields present (values redacted): encryptedCardData [REDACTED], ephemeralPublicKey [REDACTED], publicKeyHash [REDACTED], nonce [REDACTED], issuerIdentifier [REDACTED], encryptionVersion=EV_ECC_v2 Response: 500 Internal Server Error (latency ~0.41s) Timestamp: 2025.08.21_14-01-47+0200 Observation Provisioning succeeds with Mastercard but consistently fails with VISA. The GET issuerProvisioningCertificates succeeds; the POST …/cards returns 500. Request Could you please: Provide internal error details for Request ID F29B73CA-CDDE-4C0C-9F40-B87AE006FDDD (and/or Conversation ID e12c64c9a0b54981adfad8d00800d836), Confirm whether the 500 originates before or after the broker’s call to VTS (Visa Token Service), and Validate that our app/merchant/issuer configuration is fully enabled for VISA push provisioning in our region. Attached privately: sysdiagnose with full traces (can share via secure channel upon request). Kind regards, Martin

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. The error message is: Could not add card. Try again later or contact your card issuer for more information. Could you please help me?

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?

Apple pay closes silently
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. Here is the video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1r-73edQ9eBZzXi6HoSYYGjKO8LbxBrZi/view?usp=drive_web

WCSessionDelegate not being called in the Apple Wallet Extension With UI
Hi, we are implementing the push provisioning via the Apple Wallet Extension starting from the example at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/passkit/implementing-wallet-extensions. To correctly manage the push provisioning on Apple Watch, specifically for a card tokenised in the iPhone but not in the Watch, we need to know if there is a connected Apple Watch to the iPhone. We are using the following code from the Apple Wallet Extension example to detect whether there is a connected watch: WCSession* session = [WCSession defaultSession]; session.delegate = delegate; [session activateSession]; In the main target of the app, at the end of the activation the system correctly calls the delegate method: session:activationDidCompleteWithState:error: but we noticed it is not being called in the UI extension context (the one having NSExtensionPointIdentifier: com.apple.PassKit.issuer-provisioning.authorization). We don't understand why the delegate is not being called in the UI extension, can you please help? Thanks! Steps to Reproduce: Start with a card not added in the Apple Wallet app Open the Apple Wallet app Click on add card Select the app to launch the Wallet Extension flow The Apple Wallet Extension with UI is on screen and invokes the activateSession method, the delegate method is not invoked and session.isPaired returns "no". Xcode Version 16.2 macOS Version 15.6.1 (24G90) Feedback ID FB20082564

Apple Pay integration in our app
Hi, We have app in which we take donations from people and send to non-profit organisations. I have read that Apple Pay can be integrated on non profit platforms to take donations, but we are middle man, we are not non profit .. we take donations, cut our platform fees and then sent to donations to non profit orgs. My question is can we integrate Apple Pay in our iOS app to take donations from apple? as we have integrated Apple Pay on the web.

Apple Pay 3dSecure Version for Mastercard
We have finished integrating Apple Pay in our app and our payment processor is requiring us to send the 3dSecure version used for apple pay (2.1,2.2,2.3,etc.). I believe this only applies to mastercard but would appreciate if anyone has run into something similar and what you specified. I have not been able to find anything in Apple's documentation specifying the version that is used.

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.

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!

Apple Pay Test cards not added to Wallet
For Apple Pay testing, I have tried the following: Sign into the Sandbox Account via Developer Settings: Settings > Developer > Sandbox Account Keep your main Apple ID for everything else Add Test Cards to Wallet: Try adding the test card numbers (MasterCard and Visa Debit, as we support only those) Apple provides in their documentation. Unfortunately, none of them are added to the wallet. All the time it gives 'Could Not Add Card'. I tried on devices with iOS 18+. Can anyone advise on this? Thanks

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.
