Hi, You're here because you've had issues with your implementation of In-App Provisioning Extensions for Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification. To prevent sending sensitive credentials in plain text, create a new report in Feedback Assistant to share the details requested below with the appropriate log profiles installed. Gathering Required Information for Troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification Issues While troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification, it is essential that the issuer is able to collect logs on their device and check those logs for error message. This is also essential when reporting issues to Apple. To gather the required data for your own debugging as well as reporting issues, please perform the following steps on the test device: Install the Apple Pay and Wallet profiles on your iOS or watchOS device. If the issue occurs on Mac, continue to Step 2. Reproduce the issue and make a note of the timestamp when the issue occurred, while optionally capturing screenshots or video. Gather a sysdiagnose on the same iOS or watchOS device, or on macOS. Create a Feedback Assistant report with the following information: The bundle IDs App bundle ID Non-UI app extension bundle ID (if applicable) UI app extension bundle ID (if applicable) The serial number of the device. For iOS and watchOS: Open Settings > General > About > Serial Number (tap and hold to copy). For macOS: Open the Apple () menu > About This Mac > Serial Number. The SEID (Secure Element Identifier) of the device, represented as a HEX encoded string. For iOS and watchOS: Open Settings > General > About > SEID (tap and hold to copy). For macOS: Open the Apple () menu > About This Mac > System Report > NVMExpress > Serial Number. The sysdiagnose gathered after reproducing the issue. The timestamp (including timezone) of when the issue was reproduced. The type of provisioning failure (e.g., error at Terms & Conditions, error when adding a card, etc.) The issuer/network/country of the provisioned card (e.g., Mastercard – US) Last 4 digits of the FPAN Last 4 digits of the DPAN (if available) Was this test initiated from the Issuer App? (e.g., yes or no) The type of environment (e.g., sandbox or production) Screenshots or videos of errors and unexpected behaviors (optional). Important: From the logs gathered above, you should be able to determine the cause of the failure from PassbookUIService, PassKit or PassKitCore, and by filtering for your SEID or bundle ID of your app or app extensions in the Console app. Submitting your feedback Before you submit to Feedback Assistant, please confirm the requested information above is included in your feedback.

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.

I recently created a Sandbox account and successfully added an Apple Pay test MasterCard to the sandbox Wallet to run a test. Yesterday, I created a different account and tried to add a MasterCard on another device, but I received a "Card device limit" error. I then deleted the card from the original device (where it had been successfully added) and tried to re-add it, but this device also failed. I was able to confirm that a JCB card can be added, but I need to test with MasterCard. What should I do to resolve this?

I am facing a problem of payment using credit card. I tried several banks and cards without any result. I also used one of the card I have successfully paid another account. Heeeeelp

This error occurs in Apple Pay Wallet In-App Provisioning Flow for Credit / Debit Cards When the data received from the PNO (Visa) is passed to PKAddPaymentPassRequest this error is seen in addPaymentPassViewController, in the finalize stage. Docs provide no clue as to what could be wrong. iOS 18.2.1 XCode 15.2 Error description mentions "unsupportedVersionError" Is the pass version not supported? Is the wallet version not supported? Is it an app implementation error or error in the data received from the PNO?

I have the HCE entitlements, but it's not clear from the documentation I have, how to configure my app as the default app for the double tap of the power button. Nor can i see where this is in iOS 18.2 settings. The closest I can find is 'Settings > Default Apps > Contactless App', which still shows only Wallet after I install my app with all the new entitlements and provisioning profile. I have these entitlement successfully provisioning my app: <key>com.apple.developer.nfc.hce</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.developer.nfc.hce.iso7816.select-identifier-prefixes</key> <array> <string>A0000000031010</string> <string>A00000002501</string> <string>A0000000049999</string> <string>A0000000041010</string> </array> <key>com.apple.developer.nfc.hce.default-contactless-app</key> <true/> The documentation here: https://developer.apple.com/support/hce-transactions-in-apps/ also references a link to changes in Info.plist, but the url takes me to storekit-external-entitlement documentation about dating apps in the netherlands ???!!!??? Any help would be appreciated to at least get started by allowing me to change the double tap action to my app. Thanks

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?

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. 'XXX' 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?

Hello everyone, I’m currently in the process of implementing Apple Pay on my company’s e-commerce website under a subscription model with recurring payments. I would appreciate some help in clarifying the following points: Is the applicationPrimaryAccountNumber the DPAN and the merchantTokenIdentifier the MPAN? If not, which fields represent each one or how do I recognise them? Is the onlinePaymentCryptogram used only for processing payments with the DPAN, or is it also involved when using the MPAN? Is the onlinePaymentCryptogram single-use or does it have an expiration time? Or is it reusable with no limits? According to Apple’s data policies, is it recommended for our servers to perform the payment token decryption (debundling), or should this only be handled by the payment gateway processor to stay compliant? Below is the payment request I’m using for testing, along with the decrypted payment token returned for a test card: Payment Request: { "countryCode": "US", "currencyCode": "USD", "merchantCapabilities": ["supports3DS", "supportsDebit", "supportsCredit"], "supportedNetworks": ["visa", "masterCard", "amex", "discover"], "requiredBillingContactFields": ["postalAddress", "name"], "lineItems": [ { "label": "Subtotal", "amount": "9" }, { "label": "Taxes", "amount": "1" } ], "total": { "label": "Demo (Card is not charged)", "amount": "10", "type": "final", "recurringPaymentIntervalUnit": "month" }, "recurringPaymentRequest": { "paymentDescription": "Recurring payment", "regularBilling": { "label": "Demo (Card is not charged)", "amount": "10", "type": "final", "paymentTiming": "recurring", "recurringPaymentIntervalUnit": "month" }, "managementURL": "${window.location.origin}/api/managePaymentMethod" } } Decrypted Payment Token: { "applicationPrimaryAccountNumber": "5204240494898922", "applicationExpirationDate": "280630", "currencyCode": "840", "transactionAmount": 0, "deviceManufacturerIdentifier": "050110030273", "paymentDataType": "3DSecure", "paymentData": { "onlinePaymentCryptogram": "MCt5xR+VnQAAAAM/8mUjAAADFIA=" }, "merchantTokenIdentifier": "DM4MMC1US000000042e438d170774669844e732a41c28e97", "merchantTokenMetadata": { "cardMetadata": { "longDescription": "Test Bank for MasterCard MTF", "cardCountry": "US", "shortDescription": "Test Bank 2", "fpanSuffix": "0049" }, "cardArt": [ { "url": "https://nc-crt-smp-device-asset.apple.com:443/broker/v1/assets/174ce63257704d93b00aff8aa09ec0d5", "name": "cardBackgroundCombined@2x.png", "type": "image/png" } ] } } Thanks in advance for your help and guidance.

Description: I’m integrating Apple Pay JS (version 3) into an Angular application. Here are the key details: Environment: Angular (latest) Apple Pay JS v3 Chrome (confirmed window.ApplePaySession is available) application region is in US. I'm in Taiwan and using my iPhone Taiwan account to scan the QR Code/ Implemented Handlers: onvalidatemerchant onpaymentmethodselected onpaymentauthorized oncancel Observed Behavior: When I click the Apple Pay button, the console logs: Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('https://applepay.cdn-apple.com') does not match the recipient window's origin ('https://{our-domain-name}') Despite this, the QR code still appears. Scanning the QR code with an iPhone 13 Pro running iOS 18.4.1 brings up the Apple Pay sheet with the correct amount, but payment never completes. In the browser, none of my Angular event handlers fire except oncancel. Questions: What causes the postMessage origin mismatch with Apple’s CDN frame, and how should my application handle it? Why doesn’t onpaymentauthorized ever fire, and how can I complete the payment flow so that session.completePayment() succeeds? Any guidance or sample code snippets for a proper merchant-validation and payment-completion sequence in this setup would be greatly appreciated. my code onApplePayButtonClicked() { if (!ApplePaySession) { console.error('[ApplePay] ApplePaySession is not supported'); return; } // Define ApplePayPaymentRequest const request : ApplePayJS.ApplePayPaymentRequest = { countryCode: this.currencyCode, currencyCode: Constants.CountryCodeUS, merchantCapabilities: this.merchantCapabilities, supportedNetworks: this.supportedNetworks, total: { label: this.label, type: "final" as ApplePayJS.ApplePayLineItemType, amount: this.orderAmount.toString(), }, }; // Create ApplePaySession const session = new ApplePaySession(3, request); session.onvalidatemerchant = async event => { console.info('[ApplePay] onvalidatemerchant', event); try { const merchantSession = await fetch(`${this.paymentUrl}/api/applepay/validatemerchant`, { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', }, body: JSON.stringify({ PKeyCompany: this.paymentAppleMerchantId, ValidationUrl: event.validationURL }) }).then((r) => r.json()); session.completeMerchantValidation(merchantSession); } catch (error) { console.error('[ApplePay] onvalidatemerchant MerchantValidation error', error); session.abort(); } }; session.onpaymentauthorized = (event) => { console.info('[ApplePay] paymentauthorized', event); const token = event.payment.token; this.paymentTokenEmitted.emit({ token: JSON.stringify(token), paymentType: PaymentOptionType.ApplePay }); session.completePayment(ApplePaySession.STATUS_SUCCESS); }; session.onpaymentmethodselected = (event) => { console.info('[ApplePay] paymentmethodselected', event); const update: ApplePayJS.ApplePayPaymentMethodUpdate = { newTotal: request.total }; session.completePaymentMethodSelection(update); }; session.oncancel = (event) => { console.error('[ApplePay] oncancel', event); this.errorEmitted.emit({ error: 'Apple Pay cancel' }); }; session.begin(); }

Hello. What is the process to get my company listed as an approved Apple Pay Payment Service provider here: https://developer.apple.com/apple-pay/payment-platforms/ We are integrating Apple Pay on our gateway. Our customers are merchants who accept ecommerce payments via our payment gateway. We would like to appear on the list here: https://developer.apple.com/apple-pay/payment-platforms/ Thank you.

We rely on ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities() to decide whether to show the Apple Pay button. We use two different merchant IDs for non-prod/prod environments, and encountered a change in behavior where this API now returns different results. These merchant IDs are generated from a third-party provider Adyen. However, Adyen has informed us that they are unable to identify the root cause of the issue and advised us to seek assistance directly from Apple Pay support. Timeline Last known working date: 13/08/2025 Issue first noticed: 18/08/2025 Environment Details Apple Pay JS API version 1.latest Browsers Tested: Third party browsers including Chrome/139.0.0.0, Firefox/141.0 Browsers with ApplePaySession built-in (like iOS Chrome, iOS Safari, and macOS Safari) are working fine Framework Stack: Angular v18.1.3 (important) no configuration setup in Apple dev account, merchantId is generated from a third-party provider Adyen. Current Execution Flow: Apple Pay JS API script element is injected <script type="text/javascript" async="" src="https://applepay.cdn-apple.com/jsapi/1.latest/apple-pay-sdk.js"></script> Triggers below to check apple pay readiness, different ${merchantId_credential} is used: await window.ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities(`${merchantId_credential}`); (**ApplePaySession is a valid object at this point) Observed that different paymentCredentialStatus is returned // nonprod env { "paymentCredentialStatus": "applePayUnsupported" // unexpected } // prod env { "paymentCredentialStatus": "paymentCredentialStatusUnknown" } The same code is executed in each environment and the behaviour was also the same, but has changed since then. Side notes By checking the SDK’s internal code, we saw that in third-party browsers it makes an extra call to the following endpoint. Responses from this call also come back differently depending on the merchantId. When invoking below: curl -X POST \ https://smp-paymentservices.apple.com/paymentservices/v3/checkStatus/merchant/{merchantId} \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{ "initiative": "web", "initiativeContext": "env_specific_domain" }' Our non-prod environment returns {"registered":false} while using prod's merchantId and domain it returns {"registered":true}. We thought the issue might be domain-related since the environments are on different domains, but so far, no luck. The main questions we're looking to resolve are: Why did the behavior change at a certain point despite no code changes? How should we approach this investigation, and what specific requests should we be making to the Adyen team? Why does the response from the call to https://smp-paymentservices.apple.com/paymentservices/v3/checkStatus/merchant/{merchantId} return different results? Perhaps this could provide a clue regarding the question above? We noticed that canMakePayments() is returning true, so we could consider using that as a workaround. Would it be safe to change the source of truth relying on canMakePayments() for displaying Apple Pay? There is a concern that this issue may also occur in our production environment, so we would appreciate assistance in understanding what is happening and finding a resolution.

Does anyone have info about the Retention Messaging API. We've requested access to it, but there's no answer.

I'm seeking clarification on how Requirement 4.1 ("Card Issuers with a Mobile App must support In-App provisioning") applies when the card issuer uses a third-party mobile banking platform rather than a self-developed app. Our situation: We are a small credit union (the card issuer) Our mobile banking app is provided by a third-party digital banking vendor (white-label, but branded with our name) Card processing is handled by a separate vendor The ambiguity: The Apple Pay Specifications define "Card Issuer Mobile App" as: "The Card Issuer-branded, iOS software application made available on a Device that is used by such Card Issuer's customers to manage, administer, or use Cards." Our mobile banking app meets this definition—it's branded with our name and used by our members to manage their accounts and cards. However, we don't develop or directly control the app; our digital banking vendor does. The webinar FAQ stated: "Do we have to implement in-app provisioning? Yes, if you have an app." Our digital banking vendor interprets this as not applying to them because they are "not the issuer." They've stated: "Apple's requirements are at the card-processor level... our credit unions and, by extension, we are not required to support Apple Pay's in-app provisioning." Our card processor has indicated they will support in-app provisioning integrations but notes "this would be digital provisioning and we would need the digital banking vendor to work with us to enable." Specific questions: When a card issuer uses a third-party mobile banking app (branded for the issuer but developed/maintained by a vendor), does Requirement 4.1 apply? If yes, who bears compliance responsibility—the issuer, the mobile app vendor, or both? If the mobile app vendor does not implement in-app provisioning by January 15, 2026, what is the issuer's exposure? Does the issuer face suspension from the Program due to vendor non-compliance? Is there an alternative compliance path under Requirement 4.8 (Web Provisioning) for issuers whose mobile app vendors cannot deliver in-app provisioning by the deadline? This scenario likely affects hundreds of small financial institutions using shared digital banking platforms. Clarity on vendor vs. issuer responsibility would help the entire ecosystem prepare appropriately. Thank you.

For Apple Pay Testing purposes, we're trying out cards from https://developer.apple.com/apple-pay/sandbox-testing/ Visa, AMEX, Discover cards can be added to the wallet. But all 5 of the listed options for Mastercard cannot be added to the wallet with the error "Card Device Limit". How can we resolve this?

We are implementing in-app provisioning in our fintech app; We are reaching out to ask for your help in understanding what is going wrong so we can fix it.

I am adding In-App provisioning to my app. I am able to access the Apple Pay Sandbox and I have successfully tested adding a secure element/payment pass to Apple Wallet. However, once the pass has been added to the wallet, I can not access or retrieve the pass from my app. I have confirmed with the PNO that the PNO Pass Metadata Configuration in the testing environment include the correct metadata for "associatedApplicationIdentifiers" and "associatedStoreIdentifiers". Does anyone know why I am having this issue and how I can resolve it? Steps used to access pass in Apple Wallet I am unable to view the pass when I attempt to access it using the PKPassLibrary function as follows: let library = PKPassLibrary() if #available(iOS 13.4, *) { // This returns an empty array library.passes(of: .secureElement) } else { // This also returns an empty array library.passes(of: .payment) } // This returns an empty array too library.passes() Steps used to add pass to Apple Wallet These are the steps I follow to add the card: I create a PKAddPaymentPassRequestConfiguration I use this config to instantiate a PKAddPaymentPassViewController. I provide the nonce, nonceSignature, and certificates to my PNO along with the card data. I receive the activationData, encryptedPassData, and ephemeralPublicKey from my PNO and create a PKAddPaymentPassRequest using this data. I add the pass to Apple Wallet. In the addPaymentPassViewController callback, I am able to view the pass data from the .didFinishAdding pass: PKPaymentPass? variable. I am also able to see that the pass has been added from Apple Wallet app. I am not able to access the pass using PKPassLibrary().passes() at this point. I am not able to access the pass at any point after adding it either.

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.

Hello. we are looking in adding an additional verification method as part of our in app provisioning to apple wallet. the method is called app to app verification method where basically when the customer adds their card (debit or credit) on apple wallet they can be verified through a third party app. does apple support this? where can i find any material related to this?

Hi, I understand that it's possible to add a virtual debit or credit card from a mobile app into the iOS Wallet using PassKit from the Apple SDK. However, I haven't come across documentation on how to achieve this directly from a web app. I found this article on Apple's support site (https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/security/secdc2567239/web), which mentions adding cards from a card issuer’s website, but it doesn’t provide details on the process. Could you please confirm if it's possible to add a card directly from a web app without using a mobile app? If so, could you guide me to the relevant documentation? Thanks in advance!
