Apple Pay

Add Apple Pay to iOS apps, watchOS apps and to websites for these supported countries.

Make an Apple Pay payment by providing the encrypted payload (wallet token) in the payments request.

Mastercard, Visa, Amex and Discover branded Apple Pay payments receive liability shift.

Coming soon

1. Get started

  1. Read through Apple's overview.
  2. Create an Apple Merchant ID.
  3. Ask your Worldpay Implementation Manager to enable Apple Pay.
  4. Get your Certificate Signing Request (CSR) from your Implementation Manager.
  5. Use your CSR to get your payment processing certificate from Apple.

Enable Apple Pay in-app

  1. Enable Apple Pay in Xcode.
  2. Set merchantCapabilities to PKMerchantCapability3DS, as Worldpay only supports 3DS.

Enable Apple Pay on the web

  1. Register and verify any domains that will host Apple Pay.
  2. Create a merchant identity certificate. This is used to establish a secure connection between your servers and Apple's servers.
  3. Set merchantCapabilities to PKMerchantCapability3DS, as Worldpay only supports 3DS.

2. Basic request

The paymentInstrument.walletToken is taken from payment.paymentToken.paymentData in the Apple Pay payment request.
