The possibility of certificates renewal on "master account" without creating new merchant identity certificate and key stores.
Hello! We use Apple's "master account" scheme to register new clients trough API due to the fact that the number of merchant IDs in a developer account cannot exceed 100 records. It's been almost a year since we successfully used the master account ( ex. "merchant.com.xxx") and register clients via Postman. At the moment, the certificates for the master merchant ID start to expire on July 11 which will affect all customers which is under Master ID. We know that when updating certificates at the identifier level(our master id), new universal identity certificate files that we use to send to the merchants (merchant_id.pem, privkey.key) will be generated for authentication on the merchant side, as well as a new keystore. Since many of our clients are integrated with current files and keystores and have live traffic, we would like to know—is it possible to update certificates on the master account without changing the keystores and certificate identities? The impossibility of this will entail a large gap when switching to new certificates. Thanks in advance for your answer.

Domain Verification and applePayCapabilities
We have verified our domain but if the file is removed from the deployed site after verification will this impact using ApplePaySession.applePayCapabilities in real time? We use that method from the JS api in our React app to determine whether or not to show the apple pay button. When that function is called in the browser, do the apple servers ping the https://our.domain.com/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association URL at that time? Or do they check for it periodically? The reason for asking is that with our many environments we wonder if we can verify each environment's domain by adding the file once. The file will be wiped out by our CICD process as it goes up the environment stack through our development workflow. Or do we need to maintain that file for each environment and add something to our build process?

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?

Non standard Wallet app non suppressed by pass suppression entitlement
We have an app that uses the pass-presentation-suppression entitlement and calls requestAutomaticPassPresentationSuppression to prevent the Wallet app from being presented when the device is displaying a barcode to a barcode/nfc reader. This works as expected for users of the standard Apple Wallet app. However, it does not prevent third-party wallet apps from being launched, which hides the barcode and prevents it from being scanned properly. What options do I have to prevent third-party wallet apps from launching or interfering while our app is actively presenting a barcode?

Apple Pay on the Web Merchant Validation Intermittent 403 Forbidden
We are experiencing intermittent 403 Forbidden errors during Apple Pay on web merchant validation in our production and sandbox environment. Has anyone else started seeing 403 Forbidden errors recently (since mid-2025)? Why would merchant validation be sometimes successful and sometimes fail with 403? Could this be related to new Apple Pay gateway changes or stricter validation rules? Any additional debug steps or permanent solutions we should try? Thank you.

cybersource Payment Gateway not able to decrypt paymenttoken
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."

Apple Pay Signature Validation Fails
I'm currently integrating Apple Pay with my payment provider, and I'm encountering a signature validation error during the payment flow. Here's the setup: I’ve verified that my Merchant Certificate is valid, and I'm able to initialize the Apple Pay session without any issues. Also this curl works fine The Payment Processing Certificate was created by my PSP. PSP claims that the payment token signature is invalid during the transaction phase, which prevents payment completion. The parsed signature starts like this 0:d=0 hl=2 l=inf cons: SEQUENCE 2:d=1 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :pkcs7-signedData 13:d=1 hl=2 l=inf cons: cont [ 0 ] 15:d=2 hl=2 l=inf cons: SEQUENCE 17:d=3 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :01 20:d=3 hl=2 l= 13 cons: SET 22:d=4 hl=2 l= 11 cons: SEQUENCE 24:d=5 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :sha256 35:d=3 hl=2 l=inf cons: SEQUENCE 37:d=4 hl=2 l= 9 prim: OBJECT :pkcs7-data 48:d=4 hl=2 l= 0 prim: EOC 50:d=3 hl=2 l=inf cons: cont [ 0 ] 52:d=4 hl=4 l= 995 cons: SEQUENCE 56:d=5 hl=4 l= 904 cons: SEQUENCE 60:d=6 hl=2 l= 3 cons: cont [ 0 ] 62:d=7 hl=2 l= 1 prim: INTEGER :02 65:d=6 hl=2 l= 8 prim: INTEGER :16634C8B0E305717 75:d=6 hl=2 l= 10 cons: SEQUENCE 77:d=7 hl=2 l= 8 prim: OBJECT :ecdsa-with-SHA256 87:d=6 hl=2 l= 122 cons: SEQUENCE 89:d=7 hl=2 l= 46 cons: SET 91:d=8 hl=2 l= 44 cons: SEQUENCE 93:d=9 hl=2 l= 3 prim: OBJECT :commonName 98:d=9 hl=2 l= 37 prim: UTF8STRING :Apple Application Integration CA - G3 I'm looking for guidance on what could be causing this signature failure. Does anyone know what else I can check regarding the merchant or payment processing certificates, private keys, or key usage that might cause Apple Pay signature validation to fail, even if the session initializes successfully? Domains are also verified. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

How does the Domain Verification Files work
Currently, on our Production environment, when calling https://apple-pay-gateway.apple.com/paymentservices/paymentSessio,n we are randomly receiving: "Payment Services Exception merchantId={Value} unauthorized to process transactions on behalf of merchantId={Value} reason={Value} is not a registered merchant in WWDR and isn't properly authorized via Mass Enablement, either." Since launching Apple Pay on our platform we have received a new Domain Verification File and looking at some of the Domain Verification File that are hosted on the domains they are different to ours. Questions around the Domain Verification File Would we have to update every single Domain Verification File every time we receive a new one ? Does the paymentSession verfiy/call the Domain Verification File on the domain listed at https://[DOMAIN_NAME]/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association ? What happens if the Domain Verification File doesnt match the one that we currently have ? Would we have to regrester our Domains everytime we get a new Domain Verification File ?

Is MANUAL_ENTRY mandatory for Apple Pay or may an issuer block it and rely only on PKAddPaymentPass?
We plan to set Manual PAN Entry Allowed = N and accept only issuer push provisioning (PKAddPaymentPass). Is there any Apple Pay programme rule that obliges us to keep MANUAL_ENTRY enabled? Will disabling it affect “Participating Issuer” listing?
