The Apple Developer Program has three membership tiers for different purposes: the Individual Plan, the Organization Plan, and the Enterprise Plan.<\/p>\n
The Individual Plan<\/strong>\u00a0is $99 per year and is designed for individual developers working on their apps. Apps created on this plan are listed under the developer\u2019s name. Nicknames and monikers aren\u2019t allowed when signing up.<\/p>\n The Organization Plan<\/strong>\u00a0is $99 per year and is designed for larger development teams and companies. The app is listed under the organization\u2019s legal name on this plan. The organization should provide a D-U-N-S, which is a unique numeric identifier.<\/p>\n The Enterprise Plan<\/strong>\u00a0is available for a custom quote depending on the size of the organization and the number of apps they are developing.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Using the Apple ID is free of charge, unlike the Apple developer\u2019s account. However, the former is limited. Things you can do with the Apple ID:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Things you can\u00a0only<\/strong>\u00a0do with the Apple Developer account:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Individual enrollment requires the consistent use of a single iOS device with Touch ID, Face ID, or a passcode enabled. Moreover, your Apple ID needs to have two-factor authentication. Make sure to update your information, including your first name, family name, address, phone number, trusted phone number, and trusted devices. And we recommend updating your Apple Developer app before starting the process.<\/p>\n The enrollment process is straightforward; you launch the app on the device you plan to use. It\u2019s better if the device has a newer iOS version than an older one. Click on “account\u201d and sign in with your Apple ID, which must have two-factor authentication. It can be a different account from the one you usually use on that device. After reading the Apple Developer Agreement, click “agree\u201d and then “enroll now.\u201d Finally, you will be prompted with the program\u2019s benefits and requirements. Go over the prerequisites to ensure that you qualify for the program and have all the required information.<\/p>\n Filling out your profile should be simple, but double-check your name and spelling. Entering the wrong name or spelling can hold up the review process. When enrolling, have your government-issued photo ID or driver’s license photo in hand. You will have to capture it and submit it for identity verification.<\/p>\n Your work is almost done; you now have to review the information you entered, select individual as entity type, and review the Apple Developer\u00a0Program License Agreement.<\/p>\n Next, you will complete your purchase of an annual subscription. The subscription is auto-renewable, but you can cancel before the renewal date if you don\u2019t wish to resume your membership.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Enrollment has a similar process for organizations until it\u2019s time to enter your information. First, you enter your personal information as the account holder, including your legal name and address. Remember to enter your name and not the company\u2019s name. Then verify your identity with a photo ID.<\/p>\n Next, you enter the organization information, select the organization as the entity type, and enter its legal name. Then, enter the D-U-N-S number that we mentioned before, the headquarters address, and the phone number. Afterward, you enter the company\u2019s website and sign an authority confirmation as proof that you have the legal authority to enroll on the company\u2019s behalf. You can request a fee waiver if the company is nonprofit, educational, or governmental. Before the following steps, Apple will have to review your information. Keep an eye on your inbox, because they will send you an email to complete the steps.<\/p>\n Sign in again to complete your enrollment and finalize the subscription purchase. You can use your credit card or your company\u2019s for payment. Whether you enroll as an individual or an organization, you will get a receipt via email.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you want to cancel your subscription, do it before the renewal date. You will still have membership perks before the renewal, or in this case, the expiration date.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nEnrollment Requirements<\/h2>\n
