Long Story Short: I got started, and bought the apple developer account for ~ $99, and It just said me the payment was successful, and:
How many days more should I be waiting ?
Also one more question, would I be able to test my apps over my iphone after having an active Apple Developer Account ?
Any help is much appreciated.

I’ve contacted support two or three times already and no response. I made the payment to create my Apple Developer account on the 26th and also received the invoice that same day, but the status still shows as pending. This is quite urgent, so I’m not sure what you can do on your side to help.

We registered as a developer company (NGO) more than 50 days ago and it's still under review. We've already sent the documents, we've confirmed by phone, and every time we contact them we receive no information. They just tell us it's under review and there's no deadline for when this review will be completed. On the same day we registered with Apple, we registered with Google and our app has been published on Google for more than 30 days. We have no support or answers. Could someone help us to at least know a deadline for this review?
Problem
I’m trying to implement Sign in with Apple in my application. However, when my app redirects to the Apple authorization page at:
https://appleid.apple.com/auth/authorize
I get an invalid_client error with no further explanation.
Settings
I followed this article closely:
[https://developer.okta.com/blog/2019/06/04/what-the-heck-is-sign-in-with-apple#generate-the-client-secret]
Steps I have completed:
Created an App ID and a Service ID on Apple Developer Portal.
Enabled “Sign in with Apple” for both the App ID and the Service ID.
Added my domain and callback URL to the Service ID configuration. (I'm using ngrok to proxy my localhost during development.)
Linked an existing private key with “Sign in with Apple” capability.
My identifiers:
Service ID is used as client_id
Team ID is taken from the top right of the Apple Developer dashboard
Key ID is from the private key associated with the App
Environment
My backend is built with Laravel, and I'm using the [SocialiteProvider/Apple][https://socialiteproviders.com/Apple/#installation-basic-usage] library to handle the OAuth flow.
I followed the recommended method to generate a client secret (JWT) for each request, using this blog post:
[https://bannister.me/blog/generating-a-client-secret-for-sign-in-with-apple-on-each-request]
My .env configuration looks like this:
APPLE_CLIENT_ID=com.service.paxton.stockApp
APPLE_TEAM_ID=25729642DK
APPLE_KEY_ID=JFP9Q53ZCY
APPLE_PRIVATE_KEY=storage/AppleDev-AuthKey_JFP9Q53ZCY.p8
JWT Generation
I also tested generating the JWT using the Ruby script from the Okta article:
[https://developer.okta.com/blog/2019/06/04/what-the-heck-is-sign-in-with-apple#generate-the-client-secret]
Here is the script I used:
require 'jwt'
key_file = './storage/AppleDev-AuthKey_JFP9Q53ZCY.p8'
team_id = '25729642DK'
client_id = 'com.service.paxton.stockObserve'
key_id = 'JFP9Q53ZCY'
ecdsa_key = OpenSSL::PKey::EC.new IO.read key_file
headers = {
'kid' => key_id
}
claims = {
'iss' => team_id,
'iat' => Time.now.to_i,
'exp' => Time.now.to_i + 86400*180,
'aud' => 'https://appleid.apple.com',
'sub' => client_id,
}
token = JWT.encode claims, ecdsa_key, 'ES256', headers
puts token
This JWT validates correctly. I’ve also used Apple’s public key to verify the signature, and it passed.
I verified the JWT header and payload format using this helpful article:
[https://fluffy.es/how-to-solve-invalid_client-error-in-sign-in-with-apple/]
Third-Party Testing
To eliminate mistakes in my setup, I even tried a third-party tool featured in this YouTube video:
[https://youtu.be/8v01TaX1EJA?si=0jOBGBVk0R0zbmdo]
Unfortunately, the result was the same — invalid_client.
Question
I’ve double-checked everything I can think of: keys, claims, domain whitelist, identifiers. I even verified the JWT independently.
If anyone (especially someone from Apple) can help identify the missing piece, I would be truly grateful.
Hi there,
How long does it take to make a switch from Apple individual to organization membership? I initiated the process a 2 weeks ago, and I am get to receive another notification from Apple. Keeps showing We’re processing your membership migration from an individual to an organization. And I am unable to submit an application that requires Organization account.

I can't access my approved and verified Apple Developer account on the web and my certificates were revoked.
When I sign in with the correct email and password, I am redirected to a page asking me to enroll in the Developer Program, even though I successfully enrolled and was approved months ago.
Everything with Apple Developer account had been working fine for months, and the iOS App Store app confirms that my Apple Developer Program membership subscription is still active.
And if I click "Enroll Today," it says my Apple ID is already associated with an "account holder of a membership." Additionally, my macOS app certificates have been revoked without any email or explanation, and I cannot create new ones due to this issue.
Also I can access my developer account via iOS and macOS apps normally, but I can't access it on the web to create new certificates.
This I urgent and time sensitive for me, can someone please help?

Hello,
I am experiencing a critical issue with my Apple Developer Program account. I successfully enrolled months ago, and my subscription is active as per my account details. However, I am now unable to access my developer membership features, and when I sign into my account it
redirects me to the enrollment page as if I had never enrolled.
Key details of the issue:
Active subscription: My Apple Developer Program membership is active and set to renew on 17 October 2025. The subscription page confirms this, and the payment was successfully processed.
REVOKED CERTIFICATES: Certificates I created weeks ago have been revoked without any explanation or notification.
No email notifications: I have not received any communication from Apple regarding issues with my account or certificates.
Attempts to Resolve:
Cleared cookies and cache.
Tried logging in on multiple devices and browsers.
Signed out of all devices and logged back in.
Could someone please assist me in understanding why my account is behaving this way? Is there a specific team or channel I should contact to escalate this issue?
Thank you in advance for your help!
for over 2 months, I have peen trying to purchase apple developer account, I have submitted duns number, they also requested other verification details which I have submitted over 2 months, and I have tried chatting apple support and they keep telling me it under review for more than 2 months, currently they are not replying my chat

I cannot renew my membership after it expired in January of 2025. I initially let it lapse, but I decided to renew it. There is nowhere to renew it. There is no renew button in the Developer App, and the web application tells me it expired, but doesn't provide an option to renew. It just tells me to go to the Developer App and click on the Renew button which isn't there.

I have submitted an Apple Developer enrollment application on 2024-March-18, and it's still "IS BEING PROCESSED". And I have submitted multiple support tickets and asked for the status, and ALL of the replies are "uNDer rEvIEW".
For real? 423 days? How can it possibly take this long? This is beyond unreasonable. I need a real update on my application—enough with the generic responses.
My enrollment ID is 7AR6PGYR9R.
It seems like your enrollment has been stuck in processing for months without any updates from Apple. Despite repeatedly using the 'contact us' option, you haven't received any feedback.
How long does the new Apple Developer Program License Agreement take to take effect once you accept it?

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Hello, I created my Apple Developer account and it was authorized, but when I went ahead and paid $99, my card was not charged (I've used two different credit cards, all in my name) and I still haven't been successful. Has anyone else experienced the same thing and what would be the best way to resolve this?
NOTE: I receive an email and proof that the purchase was successful, but nothing has changed.
Hi, I'm from India and payment has been deducted for the membership and I have received an email confirming my subscription of the program but I still cannot access my enrolment dashboard. It says "You'll receive an email soon" in my Apple Developer app under "Enrol" and it says Pending on my Apple Account on web. I don't understand why such as a small task is such a problematic thing for Apple. Need help understanding what's going on.
