Set Up Apple Wallet

This page explains how to configure Apple Wallet so customers can add their Customer barcode/QR code (based on their store customer ID) to Apple Wallet.

By enabling Apple Wallet, customers can display their Customer barcode/QR code directly in the Apple Wallet app. This removes the need to log in to their account page just to show a code and provides a smoother checkout experience.

Using this feature requires registration in the Apple Developer Program.

The following are required to complete registration:

  • Apple ID with two-factor authentication enabled
  • D-U-N-S® number (required when applying as a company)

For more details, please refer to Apple's documentation: Program Enrollment

⚠️ Apple Developer Program registration requires an annual fee (USD 99+).

Supported Themes​

Apple Wallet can be used with:

  • Customer accounts — Recommended (new customer accounts)
  • Customer accounts (legacy) on OS 2.0 compatible themes

Apple Wallet cannot be used with:

  • Legacy customer account pages on themes that are not OS 2.0 compatible
