# Apple Pay “Status: Domain validation failed”

 * Not sure why but I’m unable to validate Apple Pay. When I go to my checkout page(
   [https://www.nerdfelt.net/checkout/](https://www.nerdfelt.net/checkout/) ) and
   click Apple Pay, the little popup shows up for a few seconds and disappears. 
   I also tried it with my phone and it did the same thing (though the visuals are
   slightly different). On the backend, it does say “Status: Domain validation failed
   ❌” but as far as I can tell, the file is there. And when I click Manage Domain
   Registration, the PayPal website tells me everything should be good and it’s 
   set up for nerdfelt.net .
 * I have also tried Google Pay and got it to work on my computer, but when I test
   it on my phone the popup window says “Unexpected developer error, please try 
   again later.”
 * Thank you for your help, I would really like to make these two payment options
   available for my customers.

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for reaching out to us, we are here to help.
 * There has been [a fix](https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-paypal-payments/pull/1915)
   for our release 2.5.0 that could have affected the Apple and Google Pay payment
   methods, so the first thing I would do to check what is causing this, is to revert
   to 2.4.3 or update to 2.5.1 (which is the same as 2.5.0).
   You could also try 
   the same test while all other plugins have been deactivated (keep only WooCommerce
   and PayPal Payments active) and using the [default Storefront theme](https://wordpress.org/themes/storefront/),
   to see if there is any other aspect of your site causing this in your situation.
 * If this is not the cause of the problem, then we would probably need to have 
   a closer look at the system report and the logs to make a better assessment.
 * If you don’t feel comfortable sharing those details on a public forum, please
   open a ticket with our service desk. You can find the instruction for this here:

   (
   please add the URL of this thread in the ticket as well).
 * Kind regards,
   Joost
