Hello

[cedar swan]

Hi there!

[brittle jasper]

Have you done the necessary pieces in your Expo app in terms of setting up entitlements like we show here: https://stripe.com/docs/terminal/payments/setup-reader/tap-to-pay

[cedar swan]

My setup in regards to building the app is a bit different than usual. Since I don't have access to a macbook or macOS and I am working with React Native and Expo, I use Expo Application Services (EAS) to build my app remotely on their servers for both Android and iOS. I don't directly have access to the iOS-related files since they are generated on Expo's servers each time the app is built. In regards to setting up a provisioning profile and adding the Tap to Pay on iPhone capability on my App ID, I have done that, and build the app with that provisioning profile, but I still end up with the same error.

Did you set up your config plugin like shown in https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/stripe/ ?

[cedar swan]

I have also set up my config plugin as shown here: https://stripe.com/docs/terminal/payments/setup-integration?terminal-sdk-platform=react-native
like this:

{
  "expo": {
    "plugins": [
      [
        "@stripe/stripe-terminal-react-native",
        {
          "bluetoothBackgroundMode": true,
          "locationWhenInUsePermission": "Location access is required in order to accept payments.",
          "bluetoothPeripheralPermission": "Bluetooth access is required in order to connect to supported bluetooth card readers.",
          "bluetoothAlwaysUsagePermission": "This app uses Bluetooth to connect to supported card readers."
        }
      ]
    ]
  }
}

The only difference from this guide being that I can't run expo prebuild and expo run:ios since I have to use eas build in order to build my app (expo prebuild is run remotely on Expo's servers during the EAS build process)

[cedar swan]

However, reading this has given me an idea that I want to try. There is a way to manually add entitlements to the app config to get EAS build to recognize them, so I will try that real quick

[brittle jasper]

Try that and let me know

[cedar swan]

It turns out that manually adding the com.apple.developer.proximity-reader.payment.acceptance (Tap to Pay) entitlement into my app.json like so:

{
  "expo": {
    "ios": {
      "entitlements": {
        "com.apple.developer.proximity-reader.payment.acceptance": true
      }
    }
  }
}

ended up fixing my issue! Thank you so much!! 🙏
