When it asks for your organization’s number, input the best number Apple can reach you at.
Proceed to fill out the ‘Organization Information’ section. Here, you will input your restaurant’s DUNS number.
Note: If you don't have a DUNS number you can signup for one here: D-U-N-S: Dun & Brad Street.After you input your DUNS number, you may see an error message that states, “This organization could not be verified as a legal entity…” This means you may have to update your DUNS business profile.
Step 4: Verify your Apple Developer account.
Callback from Apple: Once you submit the enrollment form, an Apple representative will call the phone number you provided. The following information will be needed:
Note: You should receive a call with 24-48 hours (business days). If you do not, request a call back from Apple by going to the contact us page.
