Lifecycle Manager for Apple Pay®
What does this do for me?
Pcnaid Lifecycle Manager for Apple Pay® provides an edge-hosted checkout and lifecycle management platform that enables merchants on locked-down e-commerce platforms (Shopify today; Wix, Squarespace, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, and Weebly are on the roadmap) to accept native Apple Pay®. Many modern e-commerce platforms restrict access to the root server path required to host Apple’s cryptographic domain association file (/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association). As an Apple-approved Payment Service Provider (PSP) utilizing Web Merchant Registration and Mass Enablement APIs, Pcnaid registers your merchant domain with Apple, hosts the verification file, validates Apple Pay sessions through a dedicated mutual TLS (mTLS) gateway, and routes payment tokens to Stripe Connect for decryption and direct settlement into your bank account.
