Apple Pay
Apple Pay is a wallet-based mobile payment service by Apple Inc. that lets users process payments using an iPhone, iPad or Mac. Customers benefit from a familiar and streamlined checkout experience, where their billing information can be pre-filled, ready for purchase. Customers are authenticated quickly by placing their finger on the built-in reader or through facial-recognition. Apple Pay uses tokens to ensure no sensitive payment information is stored with Apple, on the customer’s device or on your own servers.
How it works
If supported by the customer’s device, Apple Pay will be displayed as an option to complete the payment.
The customer taps the Apple Pay button:
– If the customer has previously set up Apple Pay, the payment sheet will slide into view, displaying the order details.
– Otherwise, they will be prompted to set up their Apple Pay account prior to continuing with the payment process.
The customer can review the order and update their address and payment details, if needed.
The customer places their finger on the built-in reader or enables facial-recognition on their device in order to verify their identity and confirm the payment.
If successful, on-screen confirmation will be displayed and the customer will be redirected to our hosted response page.

Requirements
- Apple Pay is only available to eligible customers. Please refer to Apple’s documentation for the full list of requirements.

Configuration
Enabling Apple Pay
To enable Apple Pay on your test site reference, please contact our Support Team. Once enabled, the Apple Pay button will be displayed on the payment choice and payment details pages (providing the browser supports the service) and you can test your solution.
Modify your POST to Trust Payments
You will need to modify your POST submitted to Trust Payments to include the following two fields. These changes will ensure that the billing and delivery information are retrieved from the customer’s wallet. This expedites the payment process, providing a more seamless checkout experience for the customer.
Field name | Format | Description | |
![]() |
billingcontactdetailsoverride | Numeric (1) | “1” – Uses billing details from the customer’s wallet. |
![]() |
customercontactdetailsoverride | Numeric (1) | “1” – Uses delivery details from the customer’s wallet. |
<form method="POST" action="<DOMAIN>/process/payments/choice"> ... <input type="hidden" name="billingcontactdetailsoverride" value="1"> <input type="hidden" name="customercontactdetailsoverride" value="1"> ... <input type="submit" value="Pay"> </form>
Replace <DOMAIN> with a supported domain. Click here for a full list.
Payment sheet
Prior to completing the purchase, the payment sheet is displayed to the customer. This presents the customer with cards previously-saved on their account, options for delivery, contact information and the full purchase amount (including tax and fees). They can review the order and optionally make adjustments before proceeding.
The customer will be able to select from the cards saved in their Apple Wallet.
The cards supported for payment are dependent on payment methods enabled on your Trust Payments account.

When selecting their preferred card for the transaction, only cards supported by your site configuration are displayed to the customer on the payment sheet.

The addresses in the payment sheet will be populated by information stored on the customer’s Apple Pay account. If the customer has multiple addresses stored, they will be able to choose between them.
The mainamount value is displayed on the payment sheet, alongside the label, which shows the name of your company / business provided to our Support team when you first signed up with us.

Testing
Your test site reference will connect to the Apple Pay testing sandbox. Therefore, in order to process payments on your test site reference, you will need to add test card details to the Apple Wallet on your supported device(s).


Additional notes
Account checks
You can process account checks with Apple Pay transactions, providing your acquiring bank supports this functionality. Contact our Support Team to enable account checks on your account. Account checks will be processed automatically prior to every payment, with no changes required to your checkout.
AVS and security code checks
AVS (Address Verification Service) checks will be processed if supported by your bank, but security code checks are not possible with Apple Pay. This is because the security code cannot be stored on the customer’s phone or with Apple, and therefore cannot be sent on to the bank during the authorisation process for checks to be performed. As such, the response for the security code checks will always be “0”, indicating the security code was not sent.
More info: AVS and security code checks document
Note: The security code setting on your security policy is not applicable for Apple Pay transactions, and therefore, they cannot be suspended based on the security code. However, AVS checks are still performed, and transactions can still be suspended due to your security policy configuration.
Fraud and duplicate checks
If enabled on your account, fraud and duplicate checks will be run for all Apple Pay transactions.
More info: Fraud checks and Duplicate checks
Subscriptions
If your merchant number permits recurring payments with Apple Pay and your account has been configured by our Support team, you will be able to process subscriptions by following our Subscriptions documentation.
Protect Plus
Protect Plus analyses the customer’s billing, delivery and token details using a rule-based system to detect suspicious patterns in user activity. The system will assist you in deciding whether to process a customer’s transaction based on the perceived level of risk.
More info: Protect Plus document
Refunds
You can refund previously-settled Apple Pay transactions by using MyST (click here to learn more). Full and partial refunds are supported.
Chargebacks
Apple Pay transactions may be subject to chargebacks. This is dependent on your acquiring bank.
