1. Set Up a Sandbox Apple ID

Apple requires a sandbox Apple ID to test Apple Pay.

If you don’t already have one, create a sandbox Apple ID using your personal Apple Developer account or follow Apple’s instructions for sandbox testers.

⚠️ Important: This Apple ID is for testing only — do not use your personal Apple ID.

On your iPhone:

• Go to Settings > App Store
• Sign in with your sandbox Apple ID (this does not affect your main iCloud account)

2. Add a Test Card to Apple Wallet

• Open the Wallet app on your device
• Tap the + icon to add a new card
• Choose Credit or Debit Card
• Enter a test card number from Apple’s official documentation: 👉 Apple Pay Sandbox Test Cards
• Complete the card setup and ensure it appears in Wallet

3.Confirm Device & Region Settings

Make sure the following are true:

• Your device region is set to a country that supports Apple Pay (e.g., United States).
• You're using a supported device (iPhone 6 or newer, running the latest iOS version).

4.Test on the Hosted Checkout Page

• On your Apple Pay–enabled device, open Safari
• Navigate to our hosted checkout page
• Select Apple Pay as the payment method
• When the Apple Pay sheet appears, choose your sandbox test card
• Authorize the transaction using Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode
• Confirm you receive a successful payment confirmation

5.Troubleshooting

If you don’t see the Apple Pay button or the transaction fails:

• Make sure you’re using Safari (Apple Pay is not supported in other browsers)
• Check that your sandbox Apple ID is signed in under Settings > App Store
• Verify that your test card is correctly added to Wallet
• Confirm your device and region settings support Apple Pay
