Denied Enrollment in Apple Developer Program Without Explanation – Seeking Guidance
Hello, I am reaching out to the community because I am facing an issue with my Apple Developer Program enrollment that I cannot resolve. I attempted to enroll in the program through both the Developer app and the website, but my application was denied without any explanation. When I contacted Apple Support, I was told that the decision is final and that no further clarification would be provided. To ensure there were no issues on my end: My Apple ID profile is complete and accurate. All required information was submitted during the enrollment process. (Including my credit card and photos of my passport) I have no prior violations of Apple’s Terms of Service or any history with banned accounts. (And my current account is 10 years old or more) Despite this, my application was rejected outright, and I feel this decision lacks transparency. As a developer who has invested significant time and resources into creating apps for the Apple ecosystem, this situation is both frustrating and disheartening. The lack of explanation also makes it impossible to identify what went wrong or how to address it. I have already tried: Contacting Apple Support directly – they reiterated that the decision is final. Double-checking my account details and region settings – everything matches. Searching for similar cases online – but found no actionable solutions. This experience feels unfair, especially since I have complied with all requirements and have not been given any opportunity to appeal or rectify potential misunderstandings. If anyone has faced a similar situation or has advice on how to proceed, please share your insights. Is there an escalation path within Apple? Should I consider legal action due to the lack of transparency in this process? I am committed to resolving this issue but feel stuck without any clear direction from Apple. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your support. Best regards, Antonio

Issue with Paying Apple Developer Fee Using Prepaid Card in Cameroon
Hello Apple Developer Community, I am encountering an issue while trying to pay the $119.99 Apple Developer Program fee through the Apple Developer app. I have linked a prepaid card to my Apple ID, which works perfectly fine for other purchases and subscriptions, but I am unable to complete the payment for the developer fee. Here are the details of the issue: Payment Method: Prepaid card connected to my Apple ID. Amount: $119.99 (Apple Developer Program fee). Location: Cameroon. Other Transactions: All other purchases and subscriptions using the same prepaid card have been processed successfully without any issues. When I attempt to pay for the developer fee, the payment doesn’t go through, and I receive an error message (Payment Failed). I’ve verified that my card has sufficient funds and that the information is correctly entered in my Apple ID account settings. Has anyone else faced a similar issue, particularly with prepaid cards or payments in Cameroon? Any advice or guidance on how to resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

Enrollment Delay After Completing the Purchase
I recently purchased an Apple Developer Account on March 01, 2025. Upon completing the purchase, I received a confirmation message stating that my account would be activated within 48 hours. However, it has now been more than ten days, and my account still remains inactive. I didn't recieve any further email regarding apple developer account enrollment. Two days ago, I sent email and discuss my issue but still there is no response from apple team what should I do?

Enroll Now button disabled on Developer App
On the Developer app, I'd like to enroll into the Apple developer program. Unfortunately the button is disabled with the text underneath of "Please contact Apple developer support at..." I have tried multiple times get into contact with support for assistance, but have not heard back from anyone. Does anyone know what causes the enroll now button to be disabled, and where I can go to get unblocked there?

I'm trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Account, but when I click on "subscribe," I get an error message that says, "Your purchase could not be completed. For assistance, contact iTunes Support." I've already added UPI as a payment method in the App Store and added 100 rupees from UPI to my Apple account.

Optimizing React Native App for Fast API Calls Using Expo
I'm developing a grocery delivery app using React Native and Expo. The app uses Node.js and MongoDB for the backend APIs. While integrating dashboard APIs, I've noticed a delay in API response times, particularly with the product filtering and sorting features. I'm looking for best practices or tools to optimize API calls in React Native, especially with Expo. Additionally, are there ways to implement efficient caching for repeated queries? Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

iPhone HCE CardSession handlin
Hi, I'm wondering if there is any better documentation relating to card session handling. The informations are kind of limited: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corenfc/cardsession/ It's not clear what should be used for keeping session or should it be created again after each transaction ? When I create a card session I pass the transaction but when at the and I call stopEmulation on card session than there is a problem with another transaction. What about the NFCPresentmentIntentAssertion? I know there's not information about "maximum suppression duration". I may only check isValid or acquire() on it. There's no information about how to properly manage it for another transaction. To sum up is that I would like to know should I create the new cardSession for each transaction (which would be strange cause it looks like singleton for me). If theres any impact when calling stopEnumaltion to cardSession or the startEmulation function may be called? The main issue is the 'double tap' flow where user must authenticate him during transaction.
