Creating a merchant ID for Apple Pay in the Merchant Back Office
- Sign in to the Back Office.
- Go to Settings > Company > Merchant IDs.
- Click Create a Merchant ID (MID). The Selection of Merchant ID type dialog box appears. Merchant ID types are displayed as icons.
- Select Apple Pay. The merchant ID creation assistant opens.

ID type.
There are other types of Apple Pay ID.
If you already have an Apple Developer merchant account and/or are interested in a particular type of ID, please refer to the relevant chapters.
Your purchaser does not offer WRAPPER mode.
- The payment platform generates an Apple Pay ID as a merchant contract number.
- Read and accept the Apple Pay terms of service by checking the box provided for that purpose.
This action is required for finalizing the creation of a Merchant ID.
- Apple provides a
file to verify the owner of your domain. You must follow the process below to
allow this verification.
- Click on download this verification file.
- Retrieve the downloaded apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association file and create a directory named .well-known at the root of your domain for uploading the file.
In the end, you should have a url like this: https://your-domain.com/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association
This step is very important. Apple uses this file to check that you are the owner of the domain.
If you have several domains, you will have to create this directory at the root of each domain and upload the same file there.
- Once the file is placed in the .well-known directory at the root of your domain, click on Add and enter your URL.
The payment gateway checks the presence of the file in real time. If the file is present in the .well-known directory, this type of icon will precede the added URL. Otherwise, the URL will be preceded by this type of icon .
Examples
It is possible to delete a domain by selecting it and clicking Delete.
- Click Next to continue the process. The rest of the setting is displayed.
The e-commerce box is enabled by default since it is the only type of payment allowed.
- Enter the Minimum amount and Maximum amount authorized during a payment if you want to define thresholds and/or payment caps.
- The Apple Pay payment method is selected by default.
- Click Finish.
