Hello, I am reaching out to the community because I am facing an issue with my Apple Developer Program enrollment that I cannot resolve. I attempted to enroll in the program through both the Developer app and the website, but my application was denied without any explanation. When I contacted Apple Support, I was told that the decision is final and that no further clarification would be provided. To ensure there were no issues on my end: My Apple ID profile is complete and accurate. All required information was submitted during the enrollment process. (Including my credit card and photos of my passport) I have no prior violations of Apple’s Terms of Service or any history with banned accounts. (And my current account is 10 years old or more) Despite this, my application was rejected outright, and I feel this decision lacks transparency. As a developer who has invested significant time and resources into creating apps for the Apple ecosystem, this situation is both frustrating and disheartening. The lack of explanation also makes it impossible to identify what went wrong or how to address it. I have already tried: Contacting Apple Support directly – they reiterated that the decision is final. Double-checking my account details and region settings – everything matches. Searching for similar cases online – but found no actionable solutions. This experience feels unfair, especially since I have complied with all requirements and have not been given any opportunity to appeal or rectify potential misunderstandings. If anyone has faced a similar situation or has advice on how to proceed, please share your insights. Is there an escalation path within Apple? Should I consider legal action due to the lack of transparency in this process? I am committed to resolving this issue but feel stuck without any clear direction from Apple. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your support. Best regards, Antonio

I can not enroll via app or online, i just get thi message: "Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time."

For un unknown reason, my Apple ID has been blocked. Since I can not connect anymore to my developer account ! I've asked to unblock it (iforgot.apple.com) but according to support the unblock sequence is not send because this Apple ID is in used. I need help to unblock my ID in order to manage my app.... note : I use an another account to post this messages.

When we initiated the app transfer, we were eligible for app transfer and it was transferred as well. But App's bundle identifiers are not transferred yet which is blocking to push new updates. We contacted various time to apple, but we get similar responses. What may be the exact reason that is blocking to transfer the app bundle identifiers. However, app has already been transferred and active from recipient developer account.

Why is it necessary that I have to reload all my personal apps developed by me for my use every year when I renew my Developer License? If I quit the program, anyone that bought my apps (if I had any) on the App Store would not lose the use of those apps. It should be the same for the apps I put on my devices when I am enrolled.

Hey everyone, I’ve been trying to get my apple developer account approved for weeks now with so many back and forth messages exchanged. However, I’m still not sure where my application stands. I submitted my verification docs multiple times through a special link. It was under review but then no one acknowledged its current status. Later, I received a follow up asking me to enrol again because it was causing some issue. But when I tried doing that, it says there is some error And asked me to contact support to resolve this. how long will this take before I get to the stage where I can make a payment and have my account approved?

Why is it so hard to register a developer account in China? As an iOS developer for 12 years, why is it so hard for me to register a developer account in China? Can Apple improve your service? If there is something wrong with me, I'm willing to accept the penalty of not being able to register. But I submitted all the information you need and then you tell me I can't register. I also just bought a new Macbook Air 2 months ago and I'm willing to contribute my income to you guys. But how are you treating me? Who can help me? Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

To the team, I am totally trapped with my organisation subscription and am unable to renew my Apple developer licence because the autorenew option did not work. A preloaded debit card with the monthly fees is already attached, but it isn't working. We, as a large organisation, are completely stuck on this matter which will lead to a huge business impact An Immediate assistance is appreciated, dear apple developer team

I have been invited to teams I can navigate things at https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/ smoothly. But https://developer.apple.com/account does not show teams and don't have access to https://developer.apple.com/account/resources/. Thus my Xcode not showing teams too.

Hello, Two months ago, I tried to enroll in the Apple Developer Program and provided official documents such as my ID and passport. However, I was repeatedly asked to upload them again until my account was declared no longer eligible for use in the Apple Developer Program. I don’t know why my ID was rejected. I tried uploading a regular photo of the document, I tried a scan, and I tried various formats, but nothing worked. Now I want to try again and enroll, but the button is not clickable. Can you please guide me through what went wrong and how I can try again? Thank you.

Hello I ordered Apple Developer Program on Feb 22. I got the confirmation email stating it will be processed within 2 business days, which has passed. Please help me to activate my account Thanks

We are a group of 10 friends using the same device and Apple ID, but each of us has a different account within the same app. We want to purchase the same auto-renewable monthly subscription plan, each using our own app credentials. The issue: after the first person subscribes, the next user (with a different in-app account) is unable to buy the same plan—it shows "already subscribed" and only allows access after the next billing cycle. We don’t mind the auto-renewal being charged each month by a different person. We just want each app account to have access to the same package independently, for 1 month each. How can we achieve this without changing the Apple ID or device?

Unfortunately, for the past two months I've been trying to migrate to a company account. The banking updates are stuck processing with this error message: Apple Developer support tossed me around between 6 or 7 different representatives, each restarting the process of trying to figure out the problem, contacting the engineering team back and forth, and even remote controlling my screen to try and solve it, to no avail. None of them know what is the issue. What do I do?

I bought the membership almost 2 days ago and have heard no response since. Is this normal and how long can i expect to wait. I need this urgently.

Hello everyone, I need help with my Apple Developer Program enrollment, as I have been stuck in the processing stage since February 20 and I don’t know what else to do. When I initially tried to enroll, I was told that the process would take two business days, but it has been much longer now. Every two days, I have attempted to purchase again, but I always receive the same message telling me to wait another two days. I have checked my payment method, verified my Apple ID information, and followed all the recommended steps, but I still cannot complete the enrollment. Has anyone else experienced this issue? What can I do to resolve it? I would appreciate any advice or guidance. Thank you in advance for your help! Best regards, Didier Orjuela

Hi Apple Developer Team, I’m a developer based in South Africa. I initially submitted my enrollment for the Apple Developer Program (Individual) last week Thursday (May 2nd, 2025). The enrollment was then withdrawn by Apple, asking me to re-apply - which I did. Unfortunately, the same issue persists. I entered valid payment details during the re-application. No payment has been deducted. The enroll button on the Apple Developer app remains disabled. It has now been 5 days without resolution. We’ve even gone to the extent of verifying our banking setup and confirming that our card is enabled for international payments. Out of frustration, I have now withdrawn all enrollment applications. Please advise on how I can proceed based on the Case ID I have submitted. This delay is affecting our iOS launch, and I would really appreciate guidance on the way forward. Thank you.

So far, we have been using Google Maps to determine distance along a certain route for a MacOS app to register kilometers for a business administration app. But, this is no longer possible, as the login for google maps no longer works. I understand we would have to pay to continue using the Google Maps service as it was and we would have to make changes to the app. That would be ok, but I was just wondering does any developer on this forum have suggestions on how to resolve this issue? Or even maybe have suggestions, to make this work better than before. Three suggestions by chatgpt: use ANWB route planner using google maps, Pro6pp, or to useWisp.Software (something I haven't heard of before. Your suggestions and ideas are welcome. Also, if the Apple Developer team knows of a way how to do this in your app, your advice is more than welcome. Have a nice day!

I am currently developing an Apple MDM solution as a vendor and have successfully obtained the Vendor Certificate from the Apple Developer Portal.

I have followed the official Apple documentation outlined here, but the issue persists. Doc Link Could you please guide me through the correct process to generate a valid CSR and successfully upload it? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and support.

I enrolled to the program via the Developer app and paid for the subscription, got my receipt. The app now says the enrollment is not available. Xcode says I have no developer account. The Appstore mac app says the subscription is active. The developer website says I need to pay. Again. Is this some kind of scam or what?

we have created an apple developer account on 30th April'2025 but still now it shows your application is in review
