Creating an Apple Developer Account is mandatory for publishing your app on the Apple App Store. Follow this step-by-step guide to enroll in the Apple Developer Program and gain access to the tools and resources needed to distribute your iOS app.
The Apple Developer Program requires an annual enrollment fee, which varies based on whether you enroll as an individual or an organization.
If you already have an Apple ID, click on Account and sign in.
If you don’t have an Apple ID, click Create Apple ID, and follow the prompts to set up a new account.
Your Apple ID must be verified with two-factor authentication (2FA) to proceed with enrollment.
Once signed in, click on Enroll at the top right corner of the page.
Review the information about the Apple Developer Program and click Start Your Enrollment.
Apple offers two enrollment types:
Individual – Best for solo developers. Apps are published under your personal name.
Organization – Required if you’re enrolling on behalf of a business. Apps are published under your company name.
If enrolling as an organization, you must provide a D-U-N-S Number, which verifies your business identity. You can check or apply for a D-U-N-S Number through Apple’s D-U-N-S lookup tool.
Review Apple’s Developer Agreement and click Submit to proceed.
Follow Apple’s verification process, which may require providing:
Your legal name
Address
Phone number
Business verification (if applying as an organization)
Apple charges an annual fee for the Developer Program:
$99 per year for individual developers
$99 per year for organizations
Select a payment method and complete the transaction.
Apple does not offer refunds for the Developer Program fee, and your enrollment must be renewed annually to keep your app active on the App Store.
Apple will review your enrollment, which typically takes a few days.
You’ll receive an email confirmation once your account is approved.
Once approved, log in to your Apple Developer Account to access developer tools, App Store Connect, and submission resources.
Now that your Apple Developer Account is active, you can generate an iOS app build using AppMySite.
Once your iOS build is ready, submit your app to the Apple App Store for review and publishing.
By completing these steps, you’ll successfully enrol in the Apple Developer Program, allowing you to develop, test, and distribute your iOS apps.
