INFOApple Pay markers detected (informational)
Homepage or sampled PDPs reference the Apple Pay JS SDK, web-component, or domain-association file. Apple Pay is a checkout-quality signal for human shoppers — informational only, does not affect the agent-readiness score.
What this check looks for
Apple Pay is an express-checkout path optimised for human shoppers on Apple devices. AI agents (ACP, UCP) pay through the protocol's delegated-payment layer, never your Apple Pay button. We surface this anyway because it's a trust + checkout-quality signal merchants want visibility into. Severity is INFO (weight 0) so the result does not move the agent-readiness score.

How to fix it
Enable Apple Pay through your payment processor (informational only)
Shopify
A few minutes- Shopify admin → Settings → Payments → Shopify Payments → Manage.
- Under Wallets, enable Apple Pay.
- Confirm `ApplePaySession` appears on a PDP via `view-source:`.
BigCommerce
A few minutes- BigCommerce admin → Store Setup → Payments.
- Enable a processor that supports Apple Pay (Stripe, Braintree, Adyen).
- In the processor's settings, enable Apple Pay for your domain.
WooCommerce
A few minutes- WordPress admin → WooCommerce → Settings → Payments.
- Configure Stripe (or Square / Braintree) and enable Apple Pay in the gateway's settings.
- Add the Apple Pay domain-association file under `.well-known/` on your server.
Custom / headless
Developer- Use a payment processor that supports Apple Pay (e.g., Stripe, Adyen, Braintree).
- Embed the processor's payment SDK on your checkout page; the SDK detects platform support automatically.
The spec it's pinned to
Apple Pay availability — payment options observed
Apple Pay availability is a checkout-quality signal merchants want surfaced; AI agents pay through the protocol layer (ACP/UCP), not the Apple Pay button, so this is informational only.
