What happens if I register as a trader on AppStore Connect? Is it only for selling my apps in EU? Or is there any other advantage or disadvantage?
EU trader compliance
What happens if I register as a trader on AppStore Connect?
The contact information you provide will be available to consumers in the EU.
There are three possibilities as I see it:
-
You're not a trader, e.g. maybe you're offering free apps as a hobby.
-
You're a trader, but you'd rather not sell your apps in the EU than disclose your contact info.
-
You're a trader, and you are happy to disclose your contact info in order to trade in the EU.
