========================================================

`Visa Acceptance Solutions` supports these payment services for Apple Pay: Authorization, Sale, Authorization Reversal, and Capture. This section of the guide contains tasks that show you how to use those services to process Apple Pay transactions:

* Authorize an Apple Pay payment with `Visa Acceptance Solutions` decryption
* Authorize an Apple Pay payment with merchant decryption
* Process an Apple Pay sale with `Visa Acceptance Solutions` decryption
* Process an Apple Pay sale with merchant decryption

  For each task in this section, the example request message includes the processingInformation. paymentSolution `REST` API field set to `001`. This value identifies Apple Pay as the digital payment solution.  
  IMPORTANT In response to your successful payment authorization request, Apple Pay returns an encrypted payload that contains sensitive payment information. The method you use to extract and decrypt the payment data depends on how you integrated Apple Pay into your system.
