What We'll Need To Build, Publish, and Maintain Your Custom App

Your App Checklist, Simplified

Important Notices 

  • App Setup Fee: We charge a $1,000 app setup fee, billed separately. This must be paid before we can start building your app.
  • Rebranding Charge: If you switch out your community domain, our app team will need to rebuild your app, so we charge a $500 rebranding fee. For more info, see our App Domain Update Guide.

PART 1: Create and Share Your App Developer Accounts 📱 

We publish apps from YOUR Apple + Google Play developer accounts, so it looks like you developed it yourself.  

IMPORTANT: Make sure to create your accounts as an ORGANIZATION!!

We WILL NOT be able to publish your app if you create your accounts as an individual.

Step 1: Get a DUNS Number at dnb.com/duns/get-a-duns  (Free)

  • You'll need a D-U-N-S Number to create both of your developer accounts as a business/organization.
  • What is a DUNS? A Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number is a unique, nine-digit identifier assigned to each physical location of a business by Dun & Bradstreet (D&B). It's free for all businesses to apply for and is a globally recognized identifier.

Step 2: Create Your Apple Developer Account at developer.apple.com  ($99) 

  • Sign in with your preferred Apple ID or create a new account
  • Enroll in the Apple Developer Program. 
  • Once your enrollment is approved, you will need to Add Our Team As Admins.

Step 3: Create Your Google Play Dev Account at play.google.com/console  ($25)

  • Sign in to your preferred Google Account, or create a new one.

Step 4: Add Our Team As Admins To Your Dev Accounts

  • Verify Your Accounts: You'll most likely need to submit additional documentation such as legal entity docs and your ID before you can do this.
  • Apple will also need to see your Public Sales Website before they will approve your account. They'll want to see what your company is about and a /Contact Page.
