Get Business Email

Apple requires a valid business email to list your brand in their marketplace. They do not accept gmail, aol, or other non-domain emails.

In this step you will create your business email that you will use to setup your Apple account.

Step 1. Create Business Email

There are two options to create your business email: create the email from your domain provider or use improvmx to forward emails from your website host to your gmail.

Option 1. Create email from your domain provider

Here are how to do this with some common providers:

• Square / Weebly

• Godaddy

• Google Domains

Option 2. Use improvmx to forward emails from your website host to gmail

If you have a website domain but not a business email, you can use the free service improvmx.com to forward domain emails to gmail. You will need access to your domain name provider (e.g. Square/Weebly, Google Domains, Godaddy).

Follow this guide to configure your DNS with improvmx.com.

Step 2. Business Email is ready

Once you have a valid business email (e.g. info@yourwebsite.com), continue to Apple developer company setup.
