1.20. Apple Pay Web

Introduction

Apple Pay is an electronic wallet system that allows Payer to make one-click payment using a card token issued together with Apple and Issuer bank. There is no need to enter card details during Apple Pay transaction. Access to this payment mechanism is possible from any device, which supports Apple Pay. After choosing Apple Pay payment method, the payer will see the form on which he confirms his Apple account and card he is going to use to pay for order. If payer doesn’t have a previously registered card, he may do it while making payment.

See terms definitions in Glossary.

If accepting payments occurs on the Payneteasy payment page, no additional integration with Apple is required from the Connecting Party.
To use Apple Pay on the Payneteasy payment page, do the following:

  1. Enable Apple Pay on the payment page template by adding macro.

  2. Inform Payneteasy support about the need to connect Apple Pay and send updated templates.

The Apple Pay button will automatically appear on the Payneteasy checkout page if:

  1. The payer uses the Safari browser on a device that supports Apple Pay.

  2. The payer has Apple Pay cards available for payment.

Note

It might be necessary for Connecting Party to register Merchant ID, issue Payment Processing Certificate and Merchant Identity Certificate in Apple in order to launch Apple Pay. For details please contact Payneteasy support manager.

(2) To implement sale-form payment request see /api/v2/sale-form.
(3) Instead of sale-form it is possible to implement preauth-form payment request, see /api/v2/preauth-form. Preauth allows to hold the specified amount in the Payer’s card account for a limited time. Preauth can be followed by Capture or Cancel.
(14) Payer is returned to Connecting Party site. To implement final redirect see Final Redirect.
(16) To implement callback with final status handling see Connecting Party Callbacks.
(18) To implement order status request see /api/v2/status. Status should be requested multiple times with 3-5 seconds interval until final status will be received in response.

Capture Flow

Capture is a transaction followed after preauth which deducts the locked amount from Payer’s card. It is important to know that the block remains for a definite period of time depending on whether this is a debit or a credit card (usually the maximum block period is 7 days for debit cards and 28 days for credit cards).

(1) Capture can be initiated by Connecting Party based on internal business model or Payer’s request.
(2) To implement capture request see /api/v2/capture/.
(5) Callback for Capture will be sent only if notify_url was provided in initial transaction request or additional callback URL for Capture transactions is specified on the endpoint level. If server_callback_url was provided in initial transaction request, callback for Capture will not be sent. To implement callback with final status handling see Connecting Party Callbacks.
(7) To implement order status request see /api/v2/status/. Status should be requested multiple times with 3-5 seconds interval until final status will be received in response.
(9) Final Status can be sent by Connecting Party based on internal business model or by Payer’s request.

Cancel Flow

Cancel is opposite of Capture which cancels the deduction and returns locked by Preauth amount back to Payer’s card. It is important to know that the block remains for a definite period of time depending on whether this is a debit or a credit card (usually the maximum block period is 7 days for debit cards and 28 days for credit cards).

(1) Cancel can be initiated by Connecting Party based on internal business model or Payer’s request.
(2) To implement cancel request see /api/v2/return/.
(5) Callback for Cancel will be sent only if notify_url was provided in initial transaction request or additional callback URL for Cancel transactions is specified on the endpoint level. If server_callback_url was provided in initial transaction request, callback for Cancel will not be sent. To implement callback with final status handling see Connecting Party Callbacks.
(7) To implement order status request see /api/v2/status/. Status should be requested multiple times with 3-5 seconds interval until final status will be received in response.
(9) Final Status can be sent by Connecting Party based on internal business model or by Payer’s request.

This requires the following:

  1. Create a new Certificate Signing Request, as described in step 2.

  2. Issue a new Payment Processing Certificate as in step 3. After creating a new certificate for the current Merchant ID, there will be two certificates: old (active) and new (requiring activation). At this step there is no need to activate the new certificate.

  3. Get the certificate private key, private key password and send them to Payneteasy support service as in step 4.

  4. Activate a new certificate only in consultation with Payneteasy support service. After activation, only the new certificate will be used, the old one will become inactive.

Certificates can be used concurrently, so the procedure for issuing a new one is as described in the “Creating a Merchant Identity Certificate” section. Before the expiration of the domain verification period, the Verify button is activated next to it. The verification procedure corresponds to that described in the section “Domain registration and verification”.
