Hey everyone, I purchased an Apple Developer Program for 99 USD on January 1 2024, filled out my credit card that I use for iCloud+ storage plan, got my confirmation email that within 48h my developer account should be activated, but it never did. Plus after waiting more than 48h I wrote to support, describing everything, but never heard back from them. One thing I noticed during the checkout was I was asked for everything (name, address, CC number, expiry date) but not the CVV number. Is this normal, and would Apple be able to process the payment without it? I though about going through the enrolment process again, but am afraid of a double charge, in case my original enrolment gets accepted... Please advise and share your experiences when enrolling to the developer program. Thanks!

I paid for the developer account subscription on April 7,and as of now, the status is still pending. I've already contracted the support center for help. please help me

Title: Apple Developer Program Enrollment Stuck – Payment Completed (Over 72 Hours, No Response) Hello, I am experiencing an issue with my Apple Developer Program enrollment and would appreciate any guidance. I completed the purchase of the Apple Developer Program (1-year membership), but my account has still not been activated. Details: Purchase Date: April 8, 2026 Status: Payment completed Issue: Unable to access or activate developer account It has now been over 72 hours, and I have: Submitted a support request (no response yet) Tried signing out/in and checking enrollment status However, there is still no update or progress. Has anyone experienced a similar delay? Is there anything else I should do to complete the enrollment? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have been unable to renew my Apple Developer Program membership since March 28, 2026. The Renew button does not appear anywhere. I have submitted 3 support tickets (Case ID: 102864696639, 102861948474, 102858980607) with zero response over 12 days. My app Fiskal - Docloop has been removed from the App Store. Team ID: 2S4RNY42SZ. This is causing serious business impact. Please help.

I enrolled in the Apple Developer program this past Monday, five days ago. The $99 charge was processed successfully. According to the Apple Developer portal, the account can take up to 48 hours to be provisioned. It has now been well beyond that, and I've received no communication from Apple Developer about what's going on. I filed a support ticket yesterday morning and have gotten no response. Has anyone else experienced these delays? Perhaps it's gotten worse in recent months as AI has made it so easy to develop? I have read elsewhere that the reason for this delay is an internal siloing between developer and user accounts. I get that Apple might need to put some gatekeeping in place for developer accounts, but this amount of delay seems ridiculous, and the lack of communication is really frustrating. I'm an indie developer trying to sell my products. The lack of support from Apple is costing me money with each day of delay. Anyone have similar experiences or advice on speeding up the process?

I purchased a Developer Account on April 4. The payment has processed and the status on the order reads "Enrollment Complete." On the Developer account page, however, it reads: "Purchase your membership. To continue your enrollment, complete your purchase now Your purchase may take up to 48 hours to process." Could someone offer guidance or assistance on this?

Hello, My Apple Developer Program enrollment has been pending for almost one month. I have already contacted Apple Developer Support via email and also called support, but unfortunately I have not received any response or update so far. On the support page it says responses usually come within 2 days or less, but it has been much longer in my case. Could someone from Apple please help check the status of my enrollment or advise what I should do next? Thank you.

Enrolled as a Developer on April 3rd, paid the $100, it was approved and has come out of my account. It is now April 7th and I still have yet to be approved. Wondering what the next steps are? Most of these threads seem to go dead after a couple of days. I was told posting here helps, can anyone confirm?

Hi, I’m a winner of the Apple Swift Student Challenge and wanted to ask about a couple of things. It has been around two weeks since I received the winning notification, but I haven’t received any update regarding the delivery of the AirPods Max (2th generation). Additionally, I wanted to check on the Apple Developer Program upgrade that is included with the award. My account doesn’t appear to be upgraded yet. Could you please confirm the timeline for both the prize shipment and the developer program upgrade, or let me know if anything is required from my side? Just want to make sure everything is on track. Thank you! Best regards, Kiaan

Hello, Can you please tell me why I can’t accept the developer agreement?I have a valid application, but I can’t publish a new application, it says that there is a new agreement and needs to be updated, but when I log in, it says that I’m sorry, you can’t register at the moment, your account is already linked.

I have been trying to enroll in the Apple Developer Program for over a week and I'm completely blocked. I'm reaching out here as a last resort after exhausting every option. The problem: Every enrollment attempt fails immediately after I select "Individual" and agree to the terms. I never reach the payment step. The only message I receive is: "Your enrollment in the Apple Developer Program could not be completed at this time." What I've tried: 3+ different Apple IDs (including brand new ones created specifically for this) Safari, Chrome, and Opera browsers Home WiFi and mobile data (different networks) Apple Developer app on iPhone Called Apple Developer Support — they said they cannot see a reason and cannot help Opened a support ticket — no response after 1 week My setup: Country: Turkey All Apple IDs have matching region and phone number (+90) No VPN during any attempt Two-factor authentication enabled on all accounts What I need: This appears to be a backend block that frontline support cannot see or resolve. I am requesting escalation to a team that can investigate and manually clear whatever is blocking my enrollment. I have a macOS app ready to submit to the App Store. This enrollment block is the only thing preventing me from publishing. Any help from Apple staff or developers who have resolved a similar situation would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I payd for being a developer for about a week. Also I opened a case at apple developer support. My account is till now not activated. Can the support here help me? Best regards.

I have an issue where I’m pushing out my builds to TestFlight, it goes through. sometimes there’s an error saying that it can’t download but if I try a couple times it goes through. but when I go through and look at my app (That TestFlight says is running the updated version) all I see is the old version

Typically, it's a simple process of accepting the new agreement, but in this case, I do not see any updates on https://developer.apple.com/account, yet on the App Store Connect, I keep seeing "A new version of your Paid Applications agreement is available." And I'm stuck, not being able to upload any new builds. Support wasn't responsive. Any suggestions? Maybe I'm missing something?

I completed payment for the Apple Developer Program 7 days ago, but my account still shows Pending. The enrollment page still says “Complete your purchase” and shows the Purchase button for the same enrollment. I already contacted Apple Developer Support, but there is still no resolution. Has anyone experienced this and had Apple manually fix or link the payment?
