Activate Certificate

POST 

/apple-pay/certificates/:id/activate

Activates an Apple Pay certificate by uploading the signed certificate from Apple.

After creating a certificate in the Apple Developer Portal using your CSR, download the signed certificate and upload it here to activate payment processing.

Activation process​

  1. Ensure you have downloaded the signed certificate (.cer file) from Apple Developer Portal.

  2. Convert the certificate to base64:

    base64 -i apple_pay.cer
  3. Call this endpoint with the base64-encoded certificate in the cert field.

Validation​

The certificate is validated to ensure:

  • It matches the private key generated when creating the CSR
  • It has a valid expiration date

Once activated, the certificate becomes available for decrypting Apple Pay payment tokens in your iOS app.

Notes​

  • A certificate can only be activated once.
  • After successful activation, the CSR is no longer returned in responses.
  • The certificate's expiration date is returned in the expireAt field once activated.
