Here on the forums I see a lot of reports like this: According to App Store Connect, I’m an Admin member of a team, but I can’t access the Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles section of the Developer website for that team. There’s one really common reason for this, namely that this is an Individual team. This is clearly documented in Developer Account Help > Access > Roles and access, which says: If you’re enrolled as an individual and add users in App Store Connect, users receive access only to your content in App Store Connect and are not considered part of your team in the Apple Developer Program. So, if App Store Connect indicates that you’re a team Admin but you can’t access Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles, it’s critical that you check that this is not an Individual team. To do this: Log on to Developer > Account. Select the correct team at the top right. Scroll down to the “Membership details” section. Look at the “Enrolled as” field. If it says “Individual”, then only the team’s Account Holder can access Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles. OTOH, if it says something else, like “Organization” or “Enterprise”, then see below. If you’re working for someone else who only has an Individual team, I recommend that you encourage them to update to an Organization team. For advice on how to do that, see Developer Account Help > Membership > Updating your account information > Updating an individual membership to an organization membership. If you can’t access Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles and you’re absolutely sure that this is not an Individual team, I recommend that you seek formal assistance via Apple > Developer > Contact Us.

Hi. Your Contact Us page has been down for at least 2 months. There is no way to contact you. I'm locked out of my Apple Developer Account. What can I do here? I'm also shocked that a company as big as Apple has not fixed this page yet. It's kind of crazy.

Title: Apple Developer Program membership still not active after payment (3 weeks) Hello, I purchased the Apple Developer Program membership on February 6, 2026. The payment was successfully charged and the invoice was issued. However, my membership still appears as inactive in my developer account, and I cannot proceed with app submission. I have already contacted Apple Developer Support but have not received a response yet. Has anyone experienced a similar delay or know what else I should check? Details: Purchase date: 06.02.2026 Invoice Number: MC49961752 Apple Order Number: AET2317962 Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi everyone, I registered for the Apple Developer Program about a week ago and my status is still Pending. I’ve emailed Apple but haven’t received any response yet. Just wondering if others are experiencing the same thing recently, or if there’s another way to follow up. Thanks a lot!

I purchased the Apple Developer Program (Individual) over 48 hours ago. I received the Order Acknowledgement email confirming my US$ 99 payment was processed. However, my account still shows "Purchase your membership" and I have not received any activation email or follow-up. I submitted a support request (Case ID: 30000003529740) but have not received a response. The Apple Developer app also shows "Enrollment through the Apple Developer app is not available for this Apple Account," so I enrolled via the website as directed. Could someone from the Developer Program team please review my enrollment? Thank you.

Hello, I am requesting guidance regarding an unresolved Apple Developer Program renewal issue. My Individual membership expired on July 10, 2021. I previously submitted support requests, including Case #102854085591, but I still do not have a clear resolution as of April 1, 2026. Details: Team ID: C69P64A2ZN Membership type: Individual Expiration date: July 10, 2021 Previous case number: 102854085591 Could Apple please clarify: Whether this membership can still be renewed Whether any action is required from my side Whether I must re-enroll instead of renew Any guidance would be appreciated, as this has been blocking my development work for a long time. Thank you.

hi there, i installed the app and paid for developer program in 26 march 2026, today is 1st april 2026 but there's no acces and i cant see anything, there's no refund, i can't refund because it's apple's subscription, what is going on? support didn't answered my questions almost 3 days

Hello Apple Developer Team, On March 12, 2026, I successfully enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an individual and was charged $99.00 to my card ending in 7850. I received all confirmation emails: Order confirmation (Order Number: D009513784) Shipment notification Invoice receipt (Invoice Number: MC57312775, Sales Order: AEU5157309) The payment was fully processed — the invoice shows "Amount Due: .00" and confirms the charge. The $99.00 was also deducted from my bank account, which I can confirm via my bank statement. Shortly after, I accidentally cancelled the enrollment in my account. Since then: My developer account shows no active membership The subscription does not appear in iPhone Settings → Subscriptions The purchase is not visible on reportaproblem.apple.com, so I cannot request a refund there I have no option to renew or re-enroll on developer.apple.com The only proof of payment I have are the emails from Apple confirming the charge I contacted Apple Developer Support over 2 weeks ago — both via email and through the support website. I have received zero response. Phone support is not available in my country (Ukraine). This was my first time enrolling in the program. I would greatly appreciate either: Restoring my enrollment and activating the membership, or Processing a full refund so I can re-enroll from scratch Details: Name: Yulii Kondratiev Country: Ukraine Order Number: D009513784 Invoice Number: MC57312775 Payment date: March 12, 2026 Amount charged: $99.00 Apple ID: I'm posting from the account used for enrollment Thank you for your help.

Hi everyone, I recently enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and completed my payment on Friday, March 20, 2026. However, my account is still showing as pending and hasn't been approved or activated yet. I'm really eager to get my personal finance app, set up for testing, so I wanted to ask if this processing time is normal, or if there is any additional information or document I need to provide to complete the process. Could anyone from the Apple team assist in checking the status of my enrollment? Thank you in advance for your help

Hello, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program approximately 20 days ago. My enrollment has been stuck “In Review” since then with no update, no request for additional documents, and no communication from Apple. I submitted a support request 10+ days ago and have received no response. Submit another request without update.. Here is my situation: • Enrollment status: In Review • Support case submitted: ~10+ days ago, no reply • Country: Canada I have verified that: • Two-factor authentication is enabled on my Apple ID • There are no pending agreements in the developer portal • All enrollment information was submitted correctly I kindly request that someone from the Apple Developer Program enrollment team review my case and provide an update or escalation path. Thank you.

I'm trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual, but I keep hitting a dead end. Every time I attempt to enroll, I get a generic error saying my enrollment could not be completed at this time, with no detail on why. I've reached out to Apple Developer Program Support by email about this but haven't received any response, which is why I'm turning to the community here. On my end, I've ruled out all the common issues. Two-factor authentication is on, I have a valid major credit card on file, I'm enrolling through the web rather than the Developer app, no VPN is active, and my Apple ID is email-based. If anyone from Apple can take a look at my account, or if someone in the community has run into this same error and found a fix, I'd really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.

I've been unable to enroll in the Apple Developer Program and am posting here after exhausting the standard support channels. The situation: When I attempt to enroll in the Apple Developer Program as an individual, I receive the error: "Your enrollment could not be completed. Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time." No additional explanation is provided. I have contacted Apple Developer Program Support multiple times by both phone and email. Each time, I was told there is nothing they can do. I asked for escalation and was told escalation is not possible. At no point was I given a specific reason for the rejection. One possible cause I identified on my own is that the name on my developer profile may not match my legal name. My Apple ID at appleid.apple.com shows my correct legal name, but I'm unsure whether my developer profile reflects the same. I have not been able to confirm whether this is actually the issue, because support has not told me what the problem is. What I've verified on my end: Two-factor authentication is enabled A valid major credit card is on the account I am enrolling via the web, not the Developer app I am not using a VPN My Apple ID is email-based, not phone-number-based I am an admin (not Account Holder) on a separate organization's developer account, which should not conflict with an individual enrollment The most frustrating part of this experience is the complete lack of transparency. The error message gives no indication of what's wrong, and support agents either don't have visibility into the cause or aren't authorized to share it. I'm willing to correct whatever the issue is - I just need someone to tell me what it is. If any Apple staff can look into my account, or if anyone in the community has resolved this same error, I would be very grateful for any guidance. Thank you.

Hola, compre el 25 de marzo la membresía de desarrollador, pero aun mi cuenta sale pendiente, no subo datos de empresa ya que soy freelance. Cuanto podría tardar la aprobación de la cuenta. Ya mande dos ticket a soporte pero nada responden

I have purchased membership for personal use to see how publishing app works. The cost was taken from the credit card I had given. but when i check my account its still reflecting the same "Purchase your membership" and ask me to purchase again

Hi everyone, I am an iOS developer from Ecuador and I am writing to ask if there's any way to fix my issue. After some initial struggling with my phone number not being able to receive Apple verification messages, I was able to register an Apple ID and use that Apple ID to enroll into the Apple Developer Program. Currently, I am stuck at the step of paying the subscription fee. When I try to pay for the 99$ enrollment fee, I receive an "Order Acknowledgement" e-mail from Apple but the payment is never processed. I have tried with multiple debit cards: 2 times with my main crypto debit card emitted from a Hong Kong bank 1 time with a debit card emitted from a local Ecuadorian bank 1 time with a debit card emitted from a US bank In all these cases the result is the same: the same order acknowledgement e-mail but nothing more happens. I even tried asking the support via e-mail (the only method that is supported in my country), but no one replies. Does anyone have any tip on how to overcome this situation?

Hello, I am facing a critical technical blocker regarding the Family Controls (Screen Time API) entitlement for my app extensions. Current Situation: My parent app (com.hayashikento.FocusPact) is already approved for the Family Controls (Distribution) entitlement. However, the associated DeviceActivityMonitorExtension (com.hayashikento.FocusPact.FocusPActMonitor) and ReportExtension (com.hayashikento.FocusPact.ReportExtension) are still pending entitlement approval. Technical Issue: Because the extensions lack the Distribution entitlement, ManagedSettings and DeviceActivity triggers (like intervalWillEndWarning) are ignored by the system when testing via TestFlight or in a non-development environment. As a result, I am unable to verify the core "automatic re-blocking" logic and "usage reporting" features in a real-world scenario. This has completely halted the final QA and TestFlight phase of my project. Requests: Could an Apple engineer verify if these extension IDs can be linked to my existing approved parent app entitlement? Is there a specific process to expedite the "linking" of extensions when the main app is already authorized? App Details: Parent App Bundle ID: com.hayashikento.FocusPact Extension IDs: com.hayashikento.FocusPact.FocusPActMonitor, com.hayashikento.FocusPact.ReportExtension Apple ID (App)6759132649 I have already submitted the web request forms, but the lack of synchronization between the parent app and extensions is preventing my MVP launch. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I purchased the Apple Developer Program on March 26, 2026. Payment went through immediately. I have the invoice (UA31019584), the order confirmation (W1318171870), and €99 charged to my card. Apple had no problem taking my money within seconds. Five days later: Account status: Pending Portal still says "Purchase your membership" and asks me to pay again App Store Connect: inaccessible TestFlight: inaccessible I contacted Apple Developer Support on day one — both by email and callback request. I now have three open cases and have received exactly zero responses: Case ID: 102856462218 — Program Purchase and Renewal Case ID: 102853916886 — Program Purchase and Renewal Case ID: 102853919455 — Program Enrolment Not a single acknowledgment. Not even an automated "we're looking into it." Nothing. My app is built and ready. I have testers waiting. I cannot distribute anything — not even through TestFlight — because Apple took my payment and then stopped responding. I see dozens of threads on this forum from developers with the exact same problem going back months. Paid memberships stuck on Pending, no activation, support completely unresponsive. This is not an isolated case — this is a systemic failure in the enrollment system that Apple has apparently chosen to ignore. I am based in the EU and I am fully prepared to pursue this through consumer protection channels if this is not resolved. You cannot charge someone for a service and then refuse to provide it or even respond to inquiries. For the world's biggest tech company that is built on software, this is practically a joke. I don't remember the last time seeing an issue like this from any other company in my whole life living on this planet. New developers practically cannot join and publish apps on Apple anymore. But if you are happy to pay, they will let you. And after payment, they will put a notice at the top reminding you to 'complete your purchase' and pay again. Is this really Apple or has this company been hijacked by some retard?

I am developing a productivity app called "FocusPact" using the Screen Time API (Family Controls). Current Status: The parent app bundle ID (com.hayashikento.FocusPact) has already been approved for the Family Controls (Distribution) entitlement. I have recently submitted a new request for the DeviceActivityMonitorExtension bundle ID: com.hayashikento.FocusPact.FocusPActMonitor. The Issue: Currently, the extension only works while debugging with Xcode (Development entitlement). When the device is disconnected, the intervalWillEndWarning and intervalDidEnd triggers are ignored by the system because the Extension ID lacks the Distribution entitlement. This is a critical blocker for my MVP testing phase on TestFlight, as I cannot verify the core "automatic re-blocking" logic in a real-world environment. Request: Could any Apple staff or engineers help expedite the linking of this extension ID to my existing approved entitlement? Parent App ID: com.hayashikento.FocusPact Extension ID: com.hayashikento.FocusPact.FocusPActMonitor I would greatly appreciate any guidance or assistance to resolve this so I can proceed with user testing. Thank you.

I'm pretty sure a lot of people had this issue already, I just can't find a concise reply with what I should do. I'm trying to enroll to the developer program, I live in an EU country. It requires me to enter my Driver's License, I also tried my official document as per online recommendation, but it didn't work. I'm legal here, but not a citizen or EU passport holder. I don't know what to do as this is my only official address.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for some advice or assistance regarding my Apple Developer Program enrollment. I completed my purchase and paid the $99 fee back on March 5th. Today is March 23rd, and my account is still not activated. It has been 18 days of total silence. I have already sent multiple follow-up emails to Apple Support, but I haven't received a single response. My payment was successfully processed, but I haven't received any confirmation or activation emails since then. Here are my transaction details: Invoice Number: MC55225030 Web Order Number: D009495884 Sales Order Number: AEU2369279 Has anyone else experienced such a long delay recently? Is there any other way to escalate this issue besides the standard contact form? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
