Verify Apple developer account - Anything

Your Apple Developer Account

Your Apple Developer Account must be active before you can publish apps through Anything.

New accounts typically take 3 days to process and may require ID verification. You’ll receive a “Welcome to The Developer Program” email when your account is ready.

Quick checklist

Use this checklist to verify your account is active and ready:

Step-by-step verification

Check membership status

  1. Go to developer.apple.com/account
  2. Sign in with your Apple ID
  3. Click Membership in the left menu
  4. Verify:
    • Program Type: Should show "Individual" or "Organization"
    • Status: Must show "Active"

If you see "Join the Apple Developer Program" or the status is not Active, your enrollment isn’t complete. Complete your enrollment or contact Apple Support.

Verify App Store Connect access

  1. Go to appstoreconnect.apple.com
  2. Sign in with the same Apple ID
  3. You should see the main dashboard with options like Apps, Users and Access, and Sales and Trends

If you see a message saying you’re not enrolled or don’t have access, your account is not ready. Complete your enrollment on the Apple Developer site or contact Apple Support.

Verify admin access

You must have Admin or Account Holder access to the account you plan to publish through. This is required to sign builds, manage certificates, and submit apps to the App Store.

  1. In App Store Connect, go to Users and Access
  2. Verify your Apple ID is listed with Admin or Account Holder role
  3. If you’re part of an Organization account, ensure you’re added to the correct team
  4. In Apple Developer Portal, verify your role under People (for Organization accounts)

Only Account Holder and Admin roles can sign builds and publish apps. If you have a different role (like App Manager or Developer), request Admin access from your organization’s Account Holder, or use an account where you have Admin privileges.

Verify team and provider match

When publishing through Anything, if you belong to multiple Developer Teams or Providers, the team and provider must match for the build to publish successfully. This ensures the signing identity aligns with the provider entity in App Store Connect.

  1. Go to developer.apple.com/account > Membership and note your team name and team ID (10-character identifier)
  2. In App Store Connect, the provider name should match your team name or team ID. This is typically visible in your account settings or when uploading builds.
  3. If you have multiple teams, ensure you’re using the correct team ID when building and signing your app. The provider in App Store Connect must correspond to the same team that signed the build.

If you see "Team and Provider must match for the build to publish", the team ID used to sign your build doesn’t match the provider configured in App Store Connect. Ensure you’re using the correct team/provider combination when publishing through Anything.

Check agreements status

Agreements must be active before you can publish apps. For monetization, banking and paid apps agreements are required.

  1. In App Store Connect, click Agreements, Tax, and Banking (under Business menu)
  2. Verify all required agreements show "Active"
  3. Check that the Paid Apps Agreement is active if you plan to monetize your app
  4. Complete all required banking details to receive payments from Apple
  5. Complete tax forms (W-9 for US, or equivalent for your country)
  6. Check for any items marked Pending, Incomplete, or Expired

You cannot receive payments from Apple until the Paid Apps Agreement is active and your banking and tax information is complete. These are required even if your app is free but includes in-app purchases or subscriptions.

Common issues

If you’re having trouble submitting your app through Anything, such as not seeing a confirmation from Apple after submission, these are the most common causes.

Account still processing

If your account shows "Pending" or you can’t access App Store Connect:

Expired membership

If your membership shows "Expired":

Insufficient access permissions

If you don’t have Admin or Account Holder access:

Team and provider mismatch

If you see "Team and Provider must match for the build to publish":

Agreements not active

If agreements show as Pending or Incomplete:

Even if your app is free, you must complete banking and tax information and accept the Paid Apps Agreement if you plan to offer in-app purchases or subscriptions through RevenueCat or other payment systems.
