The general workflow to implement Apple Pay is as follows: Create a Merchant account. Set up an Apple Pay configuration for the project in your Xcode. Then go to iTunes Connection. There you will need to create a sandbox user. Add a test card. Create a test request to make a payment. Handle the result. However, the details are a little more complicated. Below we will outline step by step how to set up Apple Pay: 1. Create an account to enable Apple Pay in your mobile application. Follow the . official setup steps 2. Next set up your server, not forgetting to first check out . the official requirements In the server configuration file, you will need to add one of the possible Cipher Suite referenced above. Take a look at our example configuration for Nginx. ``

   ssl_protocols TLSv1 ; ssl_ciphers 'ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384:DHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256:DHE-DSS-AES128-GCM-SHA256:kEDH+AESGCM:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA256:ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES128-SHA:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384:ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA:DHE-RSA-AES128-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES128-SHA:DHE-DSS-AES128-SHA256:DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA256:DHE-DSS-AES256-SHA:DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA:!aNULL:!eNULL:!EXPORT:!DES:!RC4:!

Next, you need to set up your work environment. As always, check the first. official requirements 4. Here is an example of how to add the Apple Pay payment button. <div = v- = > class "item" if "(window.ApplePaySession && window.ApplePaySession.canMakePayments())" < = = @ = = = > input class "apple-pay" type "submit" click "sendCreateOrderRequest" value "" style "-webkit-appearance: -apple-pay-button; width: 100%;height: 40px;
-apple-pay-button-type: plain;
-apple-pay-button-style: black;" </ > div Using the v-if directive you can check whether you have successfully installed Apple Pay sessions and whether users can now make payments using Apple Pay. 5. Now let's create a : certSigninRequest.certSigninRequest Open Keychain Access on your Mac (located in Applications/Utilities). Open Preferences and click Certificates. Make sure both the Online Certificate Status Protocol and Certificate Revocation List are set to Off. Choose Keychain Access > Certificate Assistant > Request a Certificate Authority. N.b. If you have your private key selected when you do this, the CSR won’t be accepted. Make sure you do not have a private key selected. Next, enter your user email address and user name. Use the same address and name that you used to register in the iOS Developer Program. A CA Email Address is required. Select the option “Save to disk” and “Let me specify key pair information” and click Continue. Specify a file name and click Save. 6. After Signing in you can register for your Apple Pay Developer account at https://developer.apple.com/ 7. Go to menu “Certificates, IDs & Profiles”. 8. Click on the button ‘Add new certificate’. 9. Then choose the options Apple Pay Merchant Identity Certificate. 10. Now choose the required Merchant from the list of those currently available. 11. Go to menu “Identifiers” and filter by Merchant IDs. 12. Choose the previously created Merchant. 13. Next, create an Apple Pay Payment Processing Certificate. 14. After the creation of a certificate, you will need to upload the .csr extension which is an ECC encrypted file. We receive this file from our payment system (in my example I work with the bank, so screen made there) 15. Add and verify the domain, following the instructions on the screen. Pay attention every time you renew an SSL Certificate, as you will need to verify the domain each time. 16. If you missed step 5 go back and take a look at how to create a . If you haven't created one yet, now is the time using encryption RSA:2048. certSigninRequest.certSigninRequest 17. Download your previously created and then download merchant_id.cer. certSigninRequest.certSigninRequest 18. Import received merchant_id.cer in Keychain (it required to export file in .p12). 19. In category Certificates in Keychain, you need to export the certificate using format .p12. 20. Generate merchantIdentityCert from the received file using the command below:openssl pkcs12 -in your_cer_name.p12 -out you_key_cert_name.pem -clcerts. 21. Enter the password that was entered during export merchant_id.cer in .p12. 22. Enter PEM pass phrase - this will be the key to the generated merchantIdentityCert. 23. Put the generated in the project’s folder. merchantIdentityCert 24. Use in the body of the request for validation Apple Pay Session. merchantIdentityCert 25. Example of the request. $response = $client->post($request->appleValidationUrl, [ => json_encode([ => $request->appleMerchantId, => $request->displayName, => , => ]), => array( CURL_SSLVERSION_TLSv1_2,
       CURLOPT_SSLCERT => public_path(path_to_merchant_identity_cert.pem),
       CURLOPT_SSLKEYPASSWD =>’your_pem_passphrase’,
       CURLOPT_SSLKEY => public_path(path_to_merchant_identity_cert.pem 'body' 'merchantIdentifier' 'displayName' 'initiative' 'web' 'initiativeContext' 'name of your api' 'curl' => CURLOPT_SSLVERSION '),
   ),
]); Where we see: - it is url that is obtained when calling appleValidationUrl onvalidatemerchantevent - it is identificator of Merchant in Apple Pay appleMerchantId - it is the name of seller. 26. Use the answer to complete Merchant validation. Take a look: displayName 27. Create the Apple Pay button in accordance with the requirements in the section “Display an Apple Pay button”. here 28. Code listing in Apple Pay using Payment Request API. sendCreateOrderRequest: { (! .PaymentRequest) ; applePayMethod = { : [ ], : { : , : , : [ , , ], : [ , ], : , : , : },
       }; paymentDetails = { : { : .product.name, : , : { : .price, : },
           },
       }; request = PaymentRequest([applePayMethod], paymentDetails);
       request.onmerchantvalidation = { .log(event); data = .stringify(
               { : event.validationURL, : , : });




           fetch( , { : data, : { : }, : ,
           }).then( {
               event.complete(response.json())
           });
       }; response = request.show();
       response.complete( );

   },
} async ( ) function if window return const supportedMethods "https://apple.com/apple-pay" data version 3 merchantIdentifier "your_merchant_identifier" merchantCapabilities "supports3DS" "supportsCredit" "supportsDebit" supportedNetworks "mastercard" "visa" countryCode "put there your country code" currencyCode "put there code of currency you will use" domainName "your_domain_name" const total label this type "final" amount value this currency "currency" const new ( ) function event console var JSON appleValidationUrl appleMerchantId "your_merchant_identifier" displayName "your_merchant_name" "url_to_validate_merchant" body headers 'content-type' 'application/json' method "POST" => response const await 'success' I hope you enjoy the reading!
