How to Grant Cents Admin Access to Your Apple Developer Account

Written by Euri

To publish and manage your iOS app, we need to be added as an Admin on your Apple Developer account. You do not need to share your Apple ID or password.


Step 1: Confirm Your Apple Developer Account Type

Apple Developer accounts come in two types:

Organization Account

Organization accounts can invite additional team members, including Cents, as Admins. If you have an Organization account, continue to Step 2.

Individual Account

Individual accounts cannot invite additional users. Before continuing, you must convert your Apple Developer account to an Organization account using Apple's official guide.

Requirements for Conversion

Apple may require:

  • A valid D-U-N-S Number for your business

  • A legally registered business or organization

  • Verification that you are authorized to act on behalf of the organization

Once Apple approves your Organization account, return to this guide and continue with Step 2.


Step 2: Sign In to App Store Connect

Go to App Store Connect and sign in using the Apple ID that is the Account Holder for your Apple Developer account.


Step 3: Open Users and Access

  1. From the App Store Connect dashboard, select Users and Access.

  2. Open the People tab.

  3. Click + (Add User).

For reference, see Apple's guide for adding users.


Step 4: Invite Cents Admin

Enter the following information exactly as shown:

Step 5: Assign the Admin Role

Step 6: Invitation Accepted

After the invitation has been accepted, Cents will have the access required to:

  • Configure your iOS app

  • Manage Certificates, Identifiers, and Profiles

  • Upload app builds

  • Manage TestFlight

  • Submit updates to the App Store

Your Apple Developer account remains under your ownership at all times. We never require your Apple ID or password.
