Apple Pay

Apple Pay be used for in-app purchases on participating apps. Users can add their credit and debit cards to the service, and then use it to make payments. Apple Pay also supports online purchases by allowing users to authenticate purchases with Touch ID, Face ID, or a passcode. It is considered as secure and easy way to make payments using Apple devices.

To integrate Apple Pay into your checkout process, follow these step-by-step instructions:

Apple Pay Certification

Login to Apple, afterward:

• Click on the Certificates, IDs & Profiles option
• From the newly opened screen select Merchant IDs and click on the (+) button
• Select an ID and enter a short description
• Once the ID is created, a confirmation screen appears
  It is recommended that the merchant ensures that the entered data is valid.
• Click the Register button
  If the registration is successful a screen showing ‘Registration complete’ appears.
• Click on the row with the newly created ID and choose the Edit button
  The options to create Identity and Payment Processing Certificates are shown. On this page, the process of adding/verifying domains can be started.

Creating a Payment Processing Certificate

• From the Edit screen of the Merchant IDs panel choose the “Create Certificate” button
• Answer “No” to the question “Will payments associated with this Merchant ID be processed exclusively in China?” and click “Continue”
  The next screen contains the instruction on how to create the CSR (and the accompanying it public and private keys).
• Get certificate by signing request (.csr) file from Solidgate Support
  This is the file that needs to be uploaded to Apple’s web page.
• From the Browse dialogue choose the file by clicking on the “Choose File” button and click “Continue”
  If the certificate is successfully created, a screen will appear allowing the signed .cer file to be downloaded. Click on the “Download” button and save the file to the disk.
• The Payment Processing Certificate (with a .cer extension) must be sent to Solidgate Support

Creating an Identity Certificate

The identity certificate is needed when merchants want to process Apple Pay payments that originate from within a web page since Apple needs to verify the ownership of the domain from which the payment is initialized. One identity certificate may be used to identify multiple domains.

• From Merchant IDs select the desired ID for creating the identity certificate
  Choose the Create Certificate button found in the Merchant Identity Certificate box.
• The steps for creating and exporting the certificates are the same as for Payment Processing Certificates with the only difference being that the following type should be chosen: Key Size – 2048 bits; Algorithm: RSA

Adding Domains to the Apple Merchant ID

To use the “Apple Pay on the Web” each of the domains from which the payment request will be made should be verified. The verification is done by uploading a file on a specified location on the merchant’s website.

• Select the Add Domain button from the Merchant IDs screen and the Register Merchant Domain window appears
  NOTE: There are a few requirements to the server on which the domain runs (e.g. the merchant server must support the TLS 1.2 protocol and the pages must be served via https). More information can be found here Reference . The above link also contains a complete guide on how to verify the domain.

• From the Register, Merchant Domain window enter the desired domain to be verified and should press Continue

• Download the file generated by Apple and upload it to the path shown on the screen

• Once the file is uploaded the client must click on the Verify button
  The uploaded file must be publicly accessible via https.

To process Apple Pay payments, you must configure your Apple developer account, complete the certification process, and enhance your iOS app or website to have the capability to access Apple Pay payments.

• Apple Pay for iOS
• Apple Pay for Websites

Liability shift

Apple Pay transactions using Mastercard and American Express imply a liability shift to the card issuer - similar to 3D secure transactions. Please be aware that although this is a common practice, the issuers are not bound by these terms and can change the liability agreement at any time.
