How to Create an Apple Developer Account

A step-by-step guide on how to create your Apple Developer account for your iPhone App. The Apple Developer Program is what gives you the ability to make your app available on the App Store for iPhone users. Due to Apple's updated guidelines and policies, you are now required to setup your own developer account for your app to be published by StaffUpApp. The account step up is pretty easy. Let's get started. Below are the steps for how to create an account.

Step 4: Read through the agreement, check the checkbox confirming that you’ve read it, then click submit.





Step 5: Confirm that your email address, name, and Country location is correct, then select one of the options from the Entity Type drop-down. Important Note: The Developer name listed on the iTunes App Store is based on the type of account selected from the options below. You MUST enroll as an ORGANIZATION, the cost is the same as an Individual $99/yr, but allows you to add StaffUpApp as an admin account user, which allows us to upload and manage the app for you. Apps published to Individual Developer Accounts will display the name listed on the iOS Developer Account. Apps published to Company/Organization Developer Account will display the Company Name as the developer.

STOP, DO NOT SELECT THIS OPTION:

Individual/Sole Proprietor/Single Person Business: Individuals or companies without an officially recognized business ( a company without a Dun and Bradstreet number). This account only allows for a single primary login to be created to the iOS Developer Account. Also, the developer name that will be made public (on the App Store) will be your First and Last name. If you would prefer a business name to show as your developer name, you will need to setup your account as a Company/Organization.

SELECT THIS OPTION

Company/Organization: (REQUIRED)

Legally recognized Companies with a Dun and Bradstreet number can select this option. This will allow multiple user logins to be created and managed with varying permissions capabilities for each login. See here to check if your company is a legally recognized company with a Dun and Bradstreet number. Also, you will have the flexibility of selecting your developer name that will display publicly on the app store.

Step 9: Finish filling out the rest of the information on the rest of the screens. Within 24 hours, Apple should send you an email confirming that your Apple Developer Account has been created successfully.

IMPORTANT NOTE: In order to publish on your behalf to your App Store account, we will need to be added as a user with full access to your developer account. After you've been approved, please

Log in to your Apple Developer account and find the area to add users.
Add the following user to your list: apple_dev_team@staffupapp.com
