Enabling Apple Pay

Apple Pay is automatically enabled after you set up your Stripe account in the Payment Methods section of your main Dashboard settings. However, to begin using Apple Pay, you must register all of your web domains that display the Apple Pay button with Apple. This includes both top-level domains (for example, ”mycharity.org”) and subdomains (for example, ”donate.charity.org”).

You'll see a notification if your account has any unverified domains. To check if your domain is verified, go to Settings > Payment methods > Apple Pay > Domains.

You can find some platform-specific instructions on how to verify your domains here:

If your website isn’t hosted on any of these platforms, follow these instructions:

Place this domain association file in the /.well-known/ directory. The full path to the file will be https://mycharity.com/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association (where mycharity.com is your organization’s site).
Next, return to the Apple Pay page in your Fundraise Up settings and click the Verify website ownership button. This tells Fundraise Up to register your domain with Apple.
After registering all your domains, you can present Apple Pay as a donation option in your Checkout modals and Campaign Pages.

Do not remove the domain association file after verification to ensure continued Apple Pay functionality.

Donor Portal / Campaign Pages domains are automatically verified. If an account has subaccounts with inherited payment methods, their Donor Portal / Campaign Pages domains are also verified for Apple Pay automatically.
