What role do push certificates play and how does Tapcart manage them?

An expired push certificate will prevent iOS users from receiving notifications that are sent from the Tapcart dashboard or third-party push integrations. If you or app users are not receiving notifications on your device, the push certificate is the first thing to check.

If you are a Tapcart user, push certificate management is streamlined for you. Tapcart’s team proactively handles expiring push certificates for your account. When Apple issues a notice about an expiring certificate, Tapcart automatically renews the certificate on your behalf, eliminating the need for manual intervention. Once the renewal is complete, you will receive a confirmation, ensuring uninterrupted service and hassle-free app submissions.

Proper management of push certificates is essential for smooth app operations. Tapcart ensures a hands-free experience by taking care of these administrative tasks on your behalf, giving you peace of mind and a smoother publishing process. In order for us to complete these tasks, we ask that you confirm your Apple Developer account is always up to date and pending agreements are accepted to ensure successful App Store submissions.
