Integrating Apple Pay into an HTML inline frame (iframe) on your website
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.

Apple Pay Merchant Token on Web
Hello. I have a few questions about the implementation of Apple Pay payments on websites. Could you help me From the documentation: Apple Pay issues an Apple Pay Merchant Token if the user’s payment network supports merchant-specific payment tokens. Otherwise, Apple Pay issues a device token for the payment request. How can we determine whether a token is a merchant token or a device token? Is it possible to determine this by any of the token fields? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/passkit/payment-token-format-reference Is it possible to understand this in other ways? Can I make recurring payments with the device token if it was issued instead of the merchant token? Is it necessary to include the tokenNotificationURL when generating a merchant token, or can we generate one without specifying it? What does the applicationExpirationDate field in the merchant token represent? Is this the date when the device token or merchant token expires and payments cannot be made with it?

In App provisioning production testing fails
During the in‑app provisioning flow, we successfully obtain the provisioning certificates and generate object for posting. However, in the production environment the flow fails when posted to a broker. broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards The staging environment works correctly and provisioning completes without issues. Object {encryptedCardData, activationData, ephemeralPublicKey} is build. The T&C screen never appears. FB22332303

How to get MPAN (when supported)?
My understanding is that MPAN is provided for any of the payment request types that support the tokenNotificationURL (deferred/recurring). If you omit the tokenNotificationURL from the request do you still get an MPAN (when supported by the banking network)? Or is it only if that property has a value? Is there a different way you are supposed to trigger an MPAN?

How to test TokenNotificationURL in sandbox?
We are trying to implement the the tokenNotificationUrl in a deferredBilling request so that we can get MPAN tokens (when supported) back from ApplePay. We want to be able to test that the events are working and firing. I have tried creating a deferred billing request, and then unlinked my test card from my test account and did not receive any event at my token notification endpoint. What is the best way to approach this from a lower environment perspective? We are trying to simulate the UNLINK EventType in the MerchantTokenEventResponse. Also can you confirm that providing this URL is what determines if we get an MPAN vs a DPAN (when MPAN is supported) or is there a different mechanism that turns that on?

Apple Pay In-App Provisioning – HTTP 500 (HTML) on broker endpoint in production (TestFlight)
We are implementing Apple Pay In-App Provisioning (EV_ECC_v2) for our EU app. The same codebase and encryption logic works successfully for our main app (different bundle ID and Adam ID), but the EU app consistently fails with HTTP 500. Environment: Entitlement: Granted (Case-ID: 18772317) Encryption scheme: EV_ECC_v2 Issue: During In-App Provisioning, the iOS app successfully obtains certificates, generates cryptographic material (encryptedCardData, activationData, ephemeralPublicKey), and POSTs to Apple's broker endpoint. The request fails at: Endpoint: POST /broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards Response: HTTP 500 with an HTML error page (not a JSON business error) <html> <head><title>500 Internal Server Error</title></head> <body> <center><h1>500 Internal Server Error</h1></center> <hr><center>Apple</center> </body> </html> Key observations: Our main app (different bundle ID/Adam ID) uses identical encryption code, private keys, and key alias — and works correctly in production. Manual card provisioning through Apple Wallet on the same device succeeds. The entitlement com.apple.developer.payment-pass-provisioning is confirmed present in the provisioning profile (verified via codesign). The 500 response is HTML rather than JSON, suggesting the request is rejected at the gateway level before reaching Apple Pay business logic. What we've verified: Entitlement correctly configured in provisioning profile ephemeralPublicKey is in uncompressed format (65 bytes, starts with 0x04) encryptionVersion is EV_ECC_v2 No double Base64 encoding Question: Could you please check whether Adam ID 6745866031 has been correctly added to the server-side allow list for In-App Provisioning in the production environment? Given the HTML 500 (not JSON) and that the identical code works for our other app, we suspect this may be an allow list or account configuration issue rather than a cryptography error. I will follow up with a Feedback Assistant ID including sysdiagnose logs shortly, per the steps outlined in https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/762893

Multiple Apple Pay relationships with differing apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association files
I've encountered an issue where we need multiple domain associations with separate Apple Pay implementations. Briefly, we have a /.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association already setup with Stripe, and now we need another, different version of the file to get setup with FreedomPay. FreedomPay insists this file represents a three-way relationship between all parties and I have no reason to disbelieve them. I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this or if there is a standard procedure. I'm currently trying to find documentation on the exact way Apple Pay verification interacts with this file to see if we can produce it dynamically.

In-App Provisioning: cannot add card to a wallet
We are developing an app which allows users to generate a HSBC virtual card using Mastercard API and add this card to an apple wallet. Staging test was passed successfully, but we are stuck in a production test phase. T&C is not even visible, 'Card is not added' is popped on a screen before that. User taps “Add to Apple Wallet” → we present PKAddPaymentPassViewController → they tap Next → after a few seconds the flow fails with "Set Up Later" alert.

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

In app verification flow without addPaymentPassViewController
How do we get addPaymentPassViewController response for in app verification without calling that function ? Currently we have working in app provisioning but not in app verification. The apple docs say "The process of generating the cryptographic OTP value is the same as for generating activationData for In-App Provisioning.". How is it the same when in in app provisioning we have this button that returns all necessary info and for in app verification there is no clear way of recieving same info.

Using a merchant session from an external website in PKPaymentAuthorizationController?
There's a purchase I make pretty often on a particular site and I'm trying to automate the boring parts with a macOS app. I can pull the merchant session from their ValidateMerchant endpoint. I can see the Apple Pay dialogue appear, then it will disappear with "Payment Not Completed." Is it fundamentally not possible to use someone else's merchant session in your own app? Thanks

Apple Pay In-App Provisioning – Apple server failure when adding a card
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 Feedback ID: FB22249031 (In app provisioning error 500)

Apple Pay Sandbox: onpaymentauthorized not fired after successful authentication (started March 6)
Hello, We are encountering an issue with Apple Pay on the Web in the sandbox environment where payments cannot be completed because the onpaymentauthorized event is not triggered. The same implementation was working normally until March 5, but the issue started occurring consistently from March 6 without any changes to our code, certificates, or merchant configuration. Environment Apple Pay on the Web (JavaScript) Safari (iOS / macOS) Apple Pay Sandbox Merchant domain verified Merchant validation succeeds Observed Flow The Apple Pay flow proceeds normally until authentication: User clicks the Apple Pay button ApplePaySession.begin() is called onvalidatemerchant fires Merchant validation request succeeds completeMerchantValidation() is called Apple Pay sheet is displayed User authenticates with Face ID / Touch ID onpaymentauthorized is never triggered Because this event never fires, the payment token is not returned and the payment cannot proceed. ApplePaySession Request { "countryCode": "JP", "currencyCode": "JPY", "merchantCapabilities": ["supports3DS"], "supportedNetworks": ["visa", "masterCard"], "total": { "label": "Test Payment", "type": "final", "amount": "100" } } Merchant Validation Merchant validation succeeds and returns a valid session from Apple. Relevant fields from the merchant session: merchantIdentifier: 35A786BE6AB4... domainName: secure.telecom-awstest.com displayName: ApplePay Additional Notes Apple Pay sheet appears normally Authentication completes successfully No JavaScript errors are logged onpaymentauthorized is never fired Issue occurs consistently in the sandbox environment Confirmed across multiple iOS versions Question Has anyone experienced a similar issue recently in the Apple Pay sandbox environment, or are there any known changes that could cause the onpaymentauthorized event not to fire after authentication? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Apple Pay with one domain and several PSP integration
We already have an apple pay integration with a psp.
We have a merchant id with an identity certificate, a processing certificate and merchant domains. We are working to integrate an other psp. This psp have one csr (processing certificate) by customer. All the payment will be processed on the same domain. We have understood that it is not possible to have different processing certificates for a merchant id. So we can not reused our existing merchant id.

 On the other hand, it seems that it is not possible to have different merchant ids on the same domain (because of the domain verification). But all payments are processed on the same domain.

 Do you think there is a solution ?
Is there a recommended workaround for this scenario?

How to display 3 or more billing cycles in Apple Pay JS API `recurringPaymentRequest`?
Hi, I am currently implementing a recurring payment feature using the Apple Pay JS API. Based on the official demo (https://applepaydemo.apple.com/apple-pay-js-api), it appears that the recurringPaymentRequest object only supports a maximum of two stages: trialBilling and regularBilling. However, our service requires a multi-stage billing model with three or more different cycles/amounts as shown below: Example Schedule: Stage 1: 2,000 JPY (2026-03-01 to 2026-04-01) Stage 2: 1,500 JPY (2026-04-01 to 2026-10-01) Stage 3: 1,000 JPY (2026-10-01 to 2027-10-01) Stage 4: 500 JPY (Thereafter) Questions: Is there any way to directly define and display three or more different billing cycles/amounts on the Apple Pay payment sheet? If the API is strictly limited to two stages, what is the Apple-recommended way to provide transparency for such complex schedules while remaining compliant with the guidelines? For instance, is it acceptable to set the final amount in regularBilling and explain the preceding stages in the billingAgreement or paymentDescription fields? I would appreciate any insights or official guidance on this. Best regards,

Apple Pay Merchant Token on Web
Hello. I have a few questions about the implementation of Apple Pay payments on websites. Could you help me From the documentation: Apple Pay issues an Apple Pay Merchant Token if the user’s payment network supports merchant-specific payment tokens. Otherwise, Apple Pay issues a device token for the payment request. How can we determine whether a token is a merchant token or a device token? Is it possible to determine this by any of the token fields? https://developer.apple.com/documentation/passkit/payment-token-format-reference Is it possible to understand this in other ways? Can I make recurring payments with the device token if it was issued instead of the merchant token? Is it necessary to include the tokenNotificationURL when generating a merchant token, or can we generate one without specifying it? What does the applicationExpirationDate field in the merchant token represent? Is this the date when the device token or merchant token expires and payments cannot be made with it?

In App provisioning production testing fails
During the in‑app provisioning flow, we successfully obtain the provisioning certificates and generate object for posting. However, in the production environment the flow fails when posted to a broker. broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards The staging environment works correctly and provisioning completes without issues. Object {encryptedCardData, activationData, ephemeralPublicKey} is build. The T&C screen never appears. FB22332303

How to get MPAN (when supported)?
My understanding is that MPAN is provided for any of the payment request types that support the tokenNotificationURL (deferred/recurring). If you omit the tokenNotificationURL from the request do you still get an MPAN (when supported by the banking network)? Or is it only if that property has a value? Is there a different way you are supposed to trigger an MPAN?

How to test TokenNotificationURL in sandbox?
We are trying to implement the the tokenNotificationUrl in a deferredBilling request so that we can get MPAN tokens (when supported) back from ApplePay. We want to be able to test that the events are working and firing. I have tried creating a deferred billing request, and then unlinked my test card from my test account and did not receive any event at my token notification endpoint. What is the best way to approach this from a lower environment perspective? We are trying to simulate the UNLINK EventType in the MerchantTokenEventResponse. Also can you confirm that providing this URL is what determines if we get an MPAN vs a DPAN (when MPAN is supported) or is there a different mechanism that turns that on?

Apple Pay In-App Provisioning – HTTP 500 (HTML) on broker endpoint in production (TestFlight)
We are implementing Apple Pay In-App Provisioning (EV_ECC_v2) for our EU app. The same codebase and encryption logic works successfully for our main app (different bundle ID and Adam ID), but the EU app consistently fails with HTTP 500. Environment: Entitlement: Granted (Case-ID: 18772317) Encryption scheme: EV_ECC_v2 Issue: During In-App Provisioning, the iOS app successfully obtains certificates, generates cryptographic material (encryptedCardData, activationData, ephemeralPublicKey), and POSTs to Apple's broker endpoint. The request fails at: Endpoint: POST /broker/v4/devices/{SEID}/cards Response: HTTP 500 with an HTML error page (not a JSON business error) <html> <head><title>500 Internal Server Error</title></head> <body> <center><h1>500 Internal Server Error</h1></center> <hr><center>Apple</center> </body> </html> Key observations: Our main app (different bundle ID/Adam ID) uses identical encryption code, private keys, and key alias — and works correctly in production. Manual card provisioning through Apple Wallet on the same device succeeds. The entitlement com.apple.developer.payment-pass-provisioning is confirmed present in the provisioning profile (verified via codesign). The 500 response is HTML rather than JSON, suggesting the request is rejected at the gateway level before reaching Apple Pay business logic. What we've verified: Entitlement correctly configured in provisioning profile ephemeralPublicKey is in uncompressed format (65 bytes, starts with 0x04) encryptionVersion is EV_ECC_v2 No double Base64 encoding Question: Could you please check whether Adam ID 6745866031 has been correctly added to the server-side allow list for In-App Provisioning in the production environment? Given the HTML 500 (not JSON) and that the identical code works for our other app, we suspect this may be an allow list or account configuration issue rather than a cryptography error. I will follow up with a Feedback Assistant ID including sysdiagnose logs shortly, per the steps outlined in https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/762893

Multiple Apple Pay relationships with differing apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association files
I've encountered an issue where we need multiple domain associations with separate Apple Pay implementations. Briefly, we have a /.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association already setup with Stripe, and now we need another, different version of the file to get setup with FreedomPay. FreedomPay insists this file represents a three-way relationship between all parties and I have no reason to disbelieve them. I'm wondering if anyone has encountered this or if there is a standard procedure. I'm currently trying to find documentation on the exact way Apple Pay verification interacts with this file to see if we can produce it dynamically.

In-App Provisioning: cannot add card to a wallet
We are developing an app which allows users to generate a HSBC virtual card using Mastercard API and add this card to an apple wallet. Staging test was passed successfully, but we are stuck in a production test phase. T&C is not even visible, 'Card is not added' is popped on a screen before that. User taps “Add to Apple Wallet” → we present PKAddPaymentPassViewController → they tap Next → after a few seconds the flow fails with "Set Up Later" alert.

App flgged by apple for paid version clarification
Currently I have an app which is completely free for all the users, I might have future versions where I will introduce paid version, where I will surely use Apple IAP and Revenue CAT. How should I clarify this to App store? Should I tell only what I am doing today, or also tell what I will do in future and keep Apple IAP in my conversation?

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

In app verification flow without addPaymentPassViewController
How do we get addPaymentPassViewController response for in app verification without calling that function ? Currently we have working in app provisioning but not in app verification. The apple docs say "The process of generating the cryptographic OTP value is the same as for generating activationData for In-App Provisioning.". How is it the same when in in app provisioning we have this button that returns all necessary info and for in app verification there is no clear way of recieving same info.

Using a merchant session from an external website in PKPaymentAuthorizationController?
There's a purchase I make pretty often on a particular site and I'm trying to automate the boring parts with a macOS app. I can pull the merchant session from their ValidateMerchant endpoint. I can see the Apple Pay dialogue appear, then it will disappear with "Payment Not Completed." Is it fundamentally not possible to use someone else's merchant session in your own app? Thanks

Apple Pay In-App Provisioning – Apple server failure when adding a card
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 Feedback ID: FB22249031 (In app provisioning error 500)

Apple Pay Sandbox: onpaymentauthorized not fired after successful authentication (started March 6)
Hello, We are encountering an issue with Apple Pay on the Web in the sandbox environment where payments cannot be completed because the onpaymentauthorized event is not triggered. The same implementation was working normally until March 5, but the issue started occurring consistently from March 6 without any changes to our code, certificates, or merchant configuration. Environment Apple Pay on the Web (JavaScript) Safari (iOS / macOS) Apple Pay Sandbox Merchant domain verified Merchant validation succeeds Observed Flow The Apple Pay flow proceeds normally until authentication: User clicks the Apple Pay button ApplePaySession.begin() is called onvalidatemerchant fires Merchant validation request succeeds completeMerchantValidation() is called Apple Pay sheet is displayed User authenticates with Face ID / Touch ID onpaymentauthorized is never triggered Because this event never fires, the payment token is not returned and the payment cannot proceed. ApplePaySession Request { "countryCode": "JP", "currencyCode": "JPY", "merchantCapabilities": ["supports3DS"], "supportedNetworks": ["visa", "masterCard"], "total": { "label": "Test Payment", "type": "final", "amount": "100" } } Merchant Validation Merchant validation succeeds and returns a valid session from Apple. Relevant fields from the merchant session: merchantIdentifier: 35A786BE6AB4... domainName: secure.telecom-awstest.com displayName: ApplePay Additional Notes Apple Pay sheet appears normally Authentication completes successfully No JavaScript errors are logged onpaymentauthorized is never fired Issue occurs consistently in the sandbox environment Confirmed across multiple iOS versions Question Has anyone experienced a similar issue recently in the Apple Pay sandbox environment, or are there any known changes that could cause the onpaymentauthorized event not to fire after authentication? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Apple Pay with one domain and several PSP integration
We already have an apple pay integration with a psp.
We have a merchant id with an identity certificate, a processing certificate and merchant domains. We are working to integrate an other psp. This psp have one csr (processing certificate) by customer. All the payment will be processed on the same domain. We have understood that it is not possible to have different processing certificates for a merchant id. So we can not reused our existing merchant id.

 On the other hand, it seems that it is not possible to have different merchant ids on the same domain (because of the domain verification). But all payments are processed on the same domain.

 Do you think there is a solution ?
Is there a recommended workaround for this scenario?

How to display 3 or more billing cycles in Apple Pay JS API `recurringPaymentRequest`?
Hi, I am currently implementing a recurring payment feature using the Apple Pay JS API. Based on the official demo (https://applepaydemo.apple.com/apple-pay-js-api), it appears that the recurringPaymentRequest object only supports a maximum of two stages: trialBilling and regularBilling. However, our service requires a multi-stage billing model with three or more different cycles/amounts as shown below: Example Schedule: Stage 1: 2,000 JPY (2026-03-01 to 2026-04-01) Stage 2: 1,500 JPY (2026-04-01 to 2026-10-01) Stage 3: 1,000 JPY (2026-10-01 to 2027-10-01) Stage 4: 500 JPY (Thereafter) Questions: Is there any way to directly define and display three or more different billing cycles/amounts on the Apple Pay payment sheet? If the API is strictly limited to two stages, what is the Apple-recommended way to provide transparency for such complex schedules while remaining compliant with the guidelines? For instance, is it acceptable to set the final amount in regularBilling and explain the preceding stages in the billingAgreement or paymentDescription fields? I would appreciate any insights or official guidance on this. Best regards,
