Removing Developer Name

I would prefer my name not to be associated with my app for reasons I won't go in to. Is there a way to use an alias or not have my name associated?

If you incorporate a business, you can contact Apple to change your developer enrollment from personal (using your name) to company (using the registered name of your incorporated entity). Be prepared to send Apple your incorporation documents and D&B number for the company.

Apple provides two versions of the 'Individual Developer Account' scheme, where one is for a person and one is for a company. They will need LLC documentation for the latter, and only then can you choose to use a DBA string, etc. versus the person's name used to register the account. Use the Contact Us tree via iTunes Connect to begin that conversation if it applies to your case.

I had figured that was the answer, just hoped it wasn't.


Thanks for the confirmation.
