1. xDigitalWalletType set to “ApplePay”
Q: Can a POST or GET be used interchangeably to submit the request?
A: No, due to the size of the data, this request must be submitted to Cardknox Gateway via a POST.
Q: I received an error “Invalid payment data format“ on the transaction response. What might be the issue?
A: The Apple Pay payload in the xCardNum field was not a valid base-64 block.
Q: I received an error “Transaction amount does not match the amount provided“ on the transaction response. What might be the issue?
A: The amount sent in via the xAmount parameter does not match the amount retrieved from the payload provided by Apple Pay.
Q: I received error “PaymentDataType <?> not supported for ApplePay“ on the transaction response. What might be the issue?
A: We currently only support 3DSecure data type. This covers all areas aside from China.
Q: How can I be sure that an Apple Pay transaction is secure?
A: Cardknox will validate the signature on the Apple Pay request to ensure that the request is properly signed using Apple Pay certificates and that the request has not been tampered with. If this
validation fails, the transaction will be rejected.
Q: What will the xEntryMethod be for an Apple Pay transaction?
A: The xEntryMethod will be set to digital wallet.
