I have been attempting to complete my enrollment for the Apple Developer Program, but each time I try, I am shown the message: “Your enrollment could not be completed at this time.” The issue persists across multiple attempts and days, and I am unable to proceed further. I am signed in with my Apple ID, and the error appears immediately during the enrollment process. Could you please advise on: Whether this is a known issue affecting my region, or If there are any additional steps or verification required to complete enrollment from Cameroon? I would greatly appreciate any guidance or support you can provide, as I am eager to continue with development using Apple’s platforms. Thank you for your time and assistance.

I've been trying to enrol as an Apple developer since January 20th. I've tried with two different cards, but I haven't received any response; the account is always pending. I've contacted support twice by phone, and one time they said it was their error. I'm still waiting.

Im having trouble paying for my new developer account and it seems its been an ongoing issue for new enrollments. Has anyone else had this issue? If so how did you manage to resolve it? I keep getting "Your payment authorisation failed on card. Please verify your information and try again, or try another payment method." I tried different cards, called my bank, tried on safari, tried on the app and been back and forth with support for a couple of weeks no with no solution. Your advice would be greatly appreciated.

Is it really possible that Apple Developer Support simply do not answer. For days! I really need help with my Account. Payed for it and I dont have the access. They told me to sign up agian, and pay again. Shame on you!

I tried to enrol and because I have logged in my computer with an account and it shows not support my account etc. therefore I logged in another account on the Developer App, it went smoothly at the beginning. Then it took me to the yearly subscription and showing billing for the account on my computer. I thought this was not okay. Therefore I signed out the account on my computer and logged the same account as I used for the Developer App. I restarted the process. Filled in basic information, address, then Next. Boom, it said something was wrong and I needed to contact support. I did, but they told me there was an error indication for my account, no solutions what I could do. So what? I am forever not able to publish on Apple Store? Does it mean I should continue my test flight on Android? What's wrong with this? Who could help me?

Hi, we are a startup and have register our organisation as a developer with all the relevant details. It has been over 10 days and the status still shows as under review.

Hello, I am seeking guidance on a prolonged and unresolved Apple Developer Program enrollment issue. I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program as an individual and submitted a request to migrate the account to an organization Thriveage on Monday, January 15, 2026. After follow-ups, I was informed that additional documents were required to link my individual and company accounts. I submitted all requested documents within 30 minutes of receiving that communication. Since then, the enrollment status has remained in “Processing” with no updates. I have been informed that no timeline can be provided for completion. Despite contacting Apple Developer Support 3–4 times over several days, I have received no meaningful response or status update. At this point: It has been over 15 days since enrollment, and More than 3 business days have passed since the last support communication. There have been: No further requests for documentation No explanation for the delay This unresolved delay is now blocking our ability to publish applications and meet active business commitments. I would appreciate clarity on the following: Is this delay within normal processing timelines? Is there a formal escalation path for enrollment cases that remain in “Processing” without updates? Should I expect a phone verification call, or is there a specific action I should proactively take to move this forward? I am requesting a clear update or direction from Apple Developer Support on how this case can be resolved. Any assistance from Apple staff or developers who have faced and resolved similar issues would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi everyone, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and my membership status has been “Pending” for over a week. Is 7+ days “Pending” normal right now, or does it usually indicate an identity/business verification hold?

Hello everyone, I’m looking for advice from anyone who has gone through a similar experience with Apple Developer Program enrollment. I initially enrolled as an individual and submitted a request to migrate the account to an organization under Thriveage Wellness Private Limited on Monday, January 15, 2026. After a few follow-ups, I was informed that I needed to submit documents linking my individual account to the company account. I provided the requested documents within 30 minutes of that communication. Since then, the enrollment status has remained stuck in “Processing” with no further updates. Support has informed me that they cannot provide any timeline for completion. Over the past several days, I’ve contacted Apple Developer Support 3–4 times but have not received any response. At this point: It has been over 12 days since enrolment, and more than 3 business days since the last support update or email. There have been: No requests for additional documents No phone call for identity verification No explanation for the delay This situation is blocking our ability to publish apps and move forward with business commitments. Has anyone recently experienced an enrolment delay of this length?Is there a specific escalation path that helped resolve the issue? Should I expect a phone verification call, or is there something I should proactively request from Apple? Any guidance from Apple staff or developers who have resolved a similar case would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I’m a newly enrolled Apple Developer Program member and am trying to notarize my first macOS app using notarytool. My enrollment is fully completed: Payment completed Free Apps and Paid Apps Agreements are Active Banking and tax (W-8BEN) are Active DSA compliance (EU) is Active However, every notarization submission is immediately rejected with: statusCode: 7000 “Team is not yet configured for notarization.” The rejection happens before any analysis (ticketContents is null), which suggests an account-level provisioning issue rather than a signing or app problem. I’ve already opened a Developer Programs Support case under: Development & Technical → Other Development or Technical Questions, and provided recent Job IDs for escalation. For developers who have encountered this recently: Is this typically resolved by Apple enabling Developer ID notarization on the backend? Is there anything else required from the developer side once agreements are active? Any confirmation or shared experience would be appreciated.

I tried many times, I tried at least 7 cards. But I couldn't manage to pay. Please help me, apple support did not get back to all 4 of my tickets. •••**** We could not receive confirmation for the payment you wanted to make with your card. Please review your information and try again or try another payment method.

Hello, We are currently using the App Store Server API - Get Transaction History endpoint to check whether consumable in-app purchase orders are completed. (https://api.storekit.itunes.apple.com/inApps/v1/history/) Recently, we’ve been seeing some cases where consumable purchases appear in the transaction history as completed orders, even though they were already fully processed and delivered to the user. This behavior seems to be a possible issue or bug in the App Store Server API. We would like to understand why this happens. Is there any known situation where consumable purchases reappear as completed orders in the transaction history after fulfillment? What is the most reliable method or best practice to confirm the completion status of consumable purchases to prevent re-processing? We would appreciate any insights or experiences from other developers who have encountered a similar issue. Thank you.

Hello everyone, I’m hoping to get some guidance or hear from others who may have experienced something similar. I registered for the Apple Developer Program as a company on January 2nd, 2026 Since completing the registration, I haven’t received any updates, feedback, or requests for additional information. The application still appears to be pending, and I’m unsure if this delay is within the normal timeframe or if there’s something I may have missed. I understand that company verification can take longer than individual enrollments, but I would appreciate any insight into: Typical review timelines for company enrollments Whether there’s a recommended way to follow up with Apple Developer Support Any steps I can take to help move the process forward Thanks in advance to anyone who can share their experience or advice. Best regards, Curlback

Hi everyone, I enrolled in the Apple Developer Program and paid for the membership through the Apple Developer app on my iPhone on January 20, 2025. The membership fee was successfully charged to my debit card. However, I never received any confirmation email, invoice, or receipt for the payment, and the subscription does NOT appear under my Apple ID subscriptions. As of today, my developer account is still not active, and I’m seeing inconsistent information across platforms: In the Apple Developer app, I now see a message saying that I can’t enroll with this account, even though the payment was charged. On the developer.apple.com website, it says that I still need to purchase the membership. I’ve already contacted Apple Developer Support via email, but I haven’t received any response yet. Has anyone experienced a similar issue where: The membership fee was charged, No confirmation or receipt email was received, The subscription does not appear in the Apple ID, And the developer account remains inactive? Any guidance or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I registered over 48 hours ago, my payment has cleared the bank and my account still shows as "pending". Any way to speed this up or is there something I missed that I need to complete?

We noticed some irregular activity associatedwith your vendor number 89341607 andhave paused your earnings payments whilewe investigate.Once our review is completewe'll determine if we can resume your payments. If you have any questions, contact us. Best regards, Apple Developer Relations Today I received this email. May I ask who has encountered the same issue and how long it will take to resolve?

When I tried to pay the fee of enrollment, it declines. I've tried 2 credit cards but the results were same!

Dear apple support, Our membership is expired in 25 Nov 2025. In my developer page instruct me to access Apple Developer Tools app in iOS and MacOs but all dont have Renew button. I tried to find in my subscriptions in my appstore account and my iPhone settings but no hope. Tried to reached you through support ticket but no response. Please help me to reactivate it. Thanks and best regards,

Every time I try to renew my Apple Developer account, I get a message like "This item is not available in your country or region." (I'm in the United States) I reached out to Apple Developer support via email (because Apple Developer does not offer phone options anymore for any support topics on the website), and they gave me the following response. "We can’t verify your identity with the Apple Developer app or provide further assistance with the Apple Account for Apple developer programs." This is ridiculous! I have multiple apps on the App Store and in TestFlight. I use my Apple Developer account to make a living- how is this even allowed? I have never done anything to violate any terms or agreements. Has anyone else been through this issue and how did they get it resolved?
