Zuora Apple Pay Checkout

Zuora provides a direct integration to add Apple Pay as a payment that can be used in Limio Checkout. This will require an Apple Developer Account and some set up in Limio and Zuora. Before getting started in Limio:

• You will need to follow Apple's guide in setting up Apple Pay. Most importantly, you will need to set up a Merchant Identifier & Payment Processing Certificate.
  • A Merchant Identifier is a unique identifier registered with Apple that confirms that your business and website is allowed to do business via Apple Pay.
  • Payment Processing Certificate is a certificate which will be used for Payment Processing, Apple will use the public key to encrypt payment data. Zuora will use the private key to decrypt the payment data when processing the payment.
• When generating the Payment Processing Certificate you will need to collaborate with Zuora Support, read more details in the Apple Pay on Web development guide. 

Once those steps have been please contact Limio Support at [e-mail], to verify your Limio Checkout domain with your Apple Merchant.

Set up in Limio

Once set up in Zuora and Apple is complete, you can access the settings in Limio for Zuora Apple Pay payment gateways, go to Profile -> Settings -> Apple. 

From your Apple Developer console you will need to find your Merchant Identifier, this identifies the Limio Checkout to Apple Pay as being able to accept payments, once the relevant domain has been verified with Apple.

Additionally, you need to provide a Display Name, this is the name that will be seen on the iOS or macOS device when approving the payment, so it is important that it is representative of your Business.

Similar to Zuora Payment Gateway configuration Apple Pay requires its own Payment Gateway configuration as often you will want Apple Pay payments to be routed through different providers than Credit Card, PayPal etc.

The Payment Gateways are set up in the same settings section:

Where:

• Gateway Name is the Zuora Payment Gateway name
• Gateway ID is the Zuora Payment Gateway unique ID
• Currency Codes is the list of currencies from which payments are accepted on this Payment Gateway
• Country Codes is the list of countries from which payments are accepted on this Payment Gateway

Once this setup is complete you will be able to see Apple Pay available as single click option to complete a purchase on the Limio Checkout:
