Generating ephemeralPublicKey for in-app provisioning
I am developing an app to add Discover cards to Apple Wallet. Unlike Visa, MasterCard, etc., Discover does not have APIs that return activationData, encryptedPassData and ephemeralPublicKey for a given card, so I have created a backend server to handle this. In my server, I am unsure how to generate the ephemeralPublicKey. Do I need to use the merchant certificate? If so, how do I use it to generate the ephemeralPublicKey? I would appreciate it if someone could provide me with a step-by-step guide on how to generate ephemeralPublicKey for provisioning a card.

Apple Wallet VAS & NFC Entitlement for Approved Product Plan
So we are developing an NFC reader for a client and one of the requirements was Apple ECP. We submitted a product plan and it was approved and we were given access to the specific documentation for ECP. We are looking to only use Loyalty passes via NFC. Not Apple Pay. We wish to develop passes that have NFC capability and apparently you need another approval for NFC Entitlement. Apple just denied our application. No reason given, just denied. How are we suppose to develop a solution when we can only do one side of the development? Also we are seeing VAS mentioned and believe we also need access to this documentation as well, but no idea where to request it. Nothing in our developer portal or wpc portal. Can someone from Apple please steer us in the right direction. As we understand it we need: Approved hardware product plan (which we have) Access to ECP 2.0 documentation (which we have) Access to VAS protocol documentation (we don't have) NFC entitlement to be able to create NFC enabled passes. Let me know what we need to do or if I am not understanding things correctly. Thanks

Merchant validation error on Apple Pay payment processing
Hi, I'm developer in fintech company, we have setup process for onboarding merchants for our partner and processing payments with usage of Apple Pay API. Daily system is processing ca. 10k payments but every day ca. 100 of transactions are declined because of merchant validation error: request to https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSession (with all required parameters in body) is returning response with status code 417 "statusMessage": "Payment Services Exception merchantId={root merchant id} unauthorized to process transactions on behalf of merchantId={merchant id hash} reason={merchant id hash} is not a registered merchant in WWDR and isn't properly authorized via Mass Enablement, either." Issue impacts recurring merchants, most of their transactions are processed successfully but randomly some of them are failing with such reason. All prerequisites are met: merchant have deployed 'apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association' certificate, certificates are valid and not expired. Apple Support is not able to provide any information based on provided requests timestamps. We would to know what may be the reason just part of the requests are failing and what 417 error code means.

Apple Pay on Google Chrome
Hi - I have a question. I am trying to understand when Apple Pay will be available on non-IOS desktop devices (specifically Google Chrome). I was hoping to understand better the process, specifically the following: How can I get the Apple Pay QR code installed on my desktop checkout page on Google Chrome? How long does this process usually take? If I work with Stripe, do I need to get approval from them to install the Apple QR code onto my Google Chrome checkout page? Is this readily available to all merchants (i.e., installing Apple Pay on Google Chrome)/ I have not seen this on any other checkout pages yet. Are there any examples you could point me to of merchants that have installed Apple Pay onto non-IOS desktop so I could trial the process (i.e., a list of existing merchants that have put the QR code onto their Google Chrome checkout pages)?

[In Chrome] Clicking "Close Button" in Apple Pay Popup doesn't fire "oncancel" callback
After opening the Apple Pay Popup and try to close the popup (without scanning the QR Code), the oncancel handler (accociated with the created session) doesn't fire. Meanwhile if the merchant scanned the QR code and the UI of the popup changed, then cancel the popup manually (using close (X) button), it fires the session.oncancel event handler. Here is applied setup: const { ApplePaySession } = window; if (!(ApplePaySession && ApplePaySession.canMakePayments())) { return new Error('Apple Pay Session is not available'); } const paymentCapabilities = await ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities( applePaymentOptionsMetaData.merchantIdentifier, ); if (paymentCapabilities.paymentCredentialStatus === 'applePayUnsupported') { console.error('ApplePaySession is not supported.'); return; } const request = { "countryCode": "KW", "currencyCode": "KWD", "merchantCapabilities": [ "supports3DS" ], "supportedNetworks": [ "VISA", "MASTERCARD" ], "billingContact": { "phoneNumber": "201000000000", "emailAddress": "example@test.com", "givenName": "Ahmed", "familyName": "Sharkawy" }, "total": { "amount": "3.085", "label": "Merchant Testing" } } const session = new ApplePaySession(5, request); session.onvalidatemerchant = async event => { if (debug) { console.info('Creating merchant session and validating merchant session'); console.info('onvalidatemerchant event', event); } try { // Validation Merchant Request session.completeMerchantValidation(data); } catch (error: any) { session.completePayment({ status: ApplePaySession.STATUS_FAILURE }); } }; session.onpaymentauthorized = async (event) => { session.completePayment({ status: ApplePaySession.STATUS_SUCCESS }); }; // This doesn't fire session.oncancel = () => { console.info('EVENT: oncancel'); }; session.begin();

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. '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?

Error Domain=PKPassKitErrorDomain Code=2
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?

Clarification on Apple Pay Domain Verification File Behavior
I'm implementing Apple Pay in my Flutter web app and I'm following the guidelines for domain verification using the apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association file. When I access the file at https://mydomain.com/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association through my web app, the browser silently downloads the file instead of displaying its content on the webpage. My question is: Is this the expected behavior for the apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association file? Should the browser download the file silently, or is there another step required, such as displaying the content on the webpage for verification purposes? I've consulted some resources and they indicate that the file download is the correct behavior. However, I'd appreciate confirmation from the community to ensure I'm implementing the verification process correctly. Summary is how do we know if apple has verified it?

HCE Default app for double tap of power button
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

NFC Certificate Request for Apple Wallet Pass Rejected – Need Assistance for EV Charging Station Use Case.
Hello Apple Developer Team/Community, I am working on developing an Apple Wallet pass with NFC functionality for our electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. The goal is to enable a "tap-to-start charging" feature, providing a seamless and efficient experience for users. However, my request for an NFC certificate to enable this functionality has been rejected. Here is a summary of my use case and actions taken so far: 1. Use Case: The Wallet pass will allow users to initiate charging sessions by tapping their iPhones or Apple Watches on the EV charger. This feature aims to simplify the process by eliminating the need for additional apps, physical cards, or manual inputs. It enhances accessibility and aligns with Apple’s goals of providing users with secure and convenient solutions. 2. Steps Taken: Submitted the NFC certificate request with a detailed explanation of the functionality. Included diagrams and supporting documents demonstrating the workflow and system readiness. Received a rejection without clear guidance on how to address the issue. 3. Technical Readiness: Our backend is fully prepared to support NFC passes, including secure processing of tap events and payload encryption. The Wallet pass has been configured to include the nfc field with the required encryptionPublicKey. Request for Assistance: Could you provide guidance on improving my application to meet Apple’s criteria for NFC certificates? Are there specific requirements or examples of successful NFC-enabled Wallet pass applications that I can use as a reference? If anyone has faced a similar rejection, what steps did you take to get approval? Additional Information: Use case: EV charging stations NFC functionality: Tap-to-start charging session Current implementation: Pass is functional without NFC but requires NFC for seamless operation. Any advice or resources to help resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and support. Best regards, DeveloperSquillion

Issue Retrieving Bound Cards in Wallet Extension Non-UI Extension
Hi, I’m encountering an issue in my app’s Wallet Extension, specifically within the Non-UI Extension, where we are unable to retrieve payment passes bound to a user’s account. The same code that successfully retrieves these bound cards in the main app does not work when used in the Non-UI Extension. Case-ID: 8932090 Steps to Reproduce: Set up In-App Provisioning: Ensure that the app has the necessary In-App Provisioning permissions. This functionality works correctly in the main app, confirming that the permissions are properly configured. Configure Wallet Extensions: Follow the Wallet Extensions documentation to configure the app, including all required settings for the Non-UI Extension. Add Code to Retrieve Payment Passes: In the main app’s LoginView, implement the following code in the handleLogin() method to retrieve payment passes: // Get the identifiers of payment passes that already exist in Apple Pay. paymentPassLibrary = self.passLibrary.passes(of: .secureElement) for pass in paymentPassLibrary { if let identifier = pass.secureElementPass?.primaryAccountIdentifier { if pass.isRemotePass && pass.deviceName.localizedCaseInsensitiveContains("Apple Watch") { remotePassIdentifiers.insert(identifier) } else if !pass.isRemotePass { passIdentifiers.insert(identifier) } } } Verify Functionality in Main App: Run the app and verify that the code successfully retrieves the payment passes bound to the user’s account. Implement Code in Non-UI Extension: Add the same code to the Non-UI Extension, specifically in the WNonUIExtHandler class within the override func status(completion: @escaping (PKIssuerProvisioningExtensionStatus) -> Void) method. Test in Wallet Extension: Run the Wallet Extension and observe that the payment passes are not retrieved when the code is executed in the Non-UI Extension. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or can provide insight into why the code might not work in the Non-UI Extension compared to the main app? Support Information: iOS Version: 17.5.1 Development environment: Xcode 15.4 (15F31d), macOS 14.3 (23D56) Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Gathering Required Information for Troubleshooting Apple Pay In-App Provisioning or In-App Verification Issues
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. Failure to provide the requested information will only delay my investigation into the reported issue within your Apple Pay client. After your submission to Feedback Assistant is complete, please respond in your existing Developer Forums post with the Feedback ID. Once received, I can begin my investigation and determine if this issue is caused by an error within your client, a configuration issue within your developer account, or an underlying system bug. Cheers, Paris X Pinkney |  WWDR | DTS Engineer

How to Adding credit or debit cards from a card issuer’s website
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!
